Off Off Topic: Cool Toronto People's Thread

[FCP Bob 1,320]

I am getting Fibe TV. Bell guy says it will take 2-3 hours. He has to go to the neighbours and asks me if they have a dog. For some reason I thought of Bob.

 

does the dog bite ?

[Babying 613]

Wine country. Driven by

The Peewee team from Fresno won a Silver Stick Tournament and the finals are being held in the town of Pelham. So they are going there in January. I have been chosen as the official guy to answer all questions related to this..I have never been to Pelham, it looks like a very small town and an interesting place to host a large tournament.

Very small indeed. I drove past it going to pick up something at Brock U

 

I guess they are staying in St Catherines

They keep asking me where they should stay or how they should get there..I said you guys need to take the kids to Toronto and probably the Hockey Hall of Fame , but staying in Toronto and driving there isnt convenient..I doubt there are hotels in Pelham to handle a hockey tournament of that size

The drive especially in January could be ugly. Don’t think they are use to snow

 

St Catherines is close by and my best guess of where to stay

[serge 904]

Yes most of them grew up in California and have never seen real snow..lol

[Zach6668 513]

St. Catharines is nice enough. Niagara right there too. Have to see the falls. HHOF would be nice. Rent cars tho. For HHOF probably park at a GO station like Aldershot.

[Zach6668 513]

Welland Canal maybe? I’m sure all of this will suck in January...

freaking hippies

 

my condo doesn't allow pot smoking anywhere in the building including your own unit which is a good thing.

I assume they don't allow cigarette smoking either?

[FCP Bob 1,320]

smoking is allowed in your own unit but not in common areas. Pot smells way way way more than cigarettes do and intrudes on others far more.

 

Condos can pass bylaws to restrict a lot of how you use your unit such as whether you can have pets and what type.

[Zach6668 513]

Are you legally allowed to smoke pot on a sidewalk?

 

Ban all smoking forever for all I care. Hate the smell of all of it and people who toss their butts on the ground as if cigarettes are exempt from littering can **** off straight to hell.

[Zach6668 513]

If I pass someone smoking, I literally hold my breath until I pass. My lungs are ****ed up enough from asthma and car exhaust.

Its interesting that the laws in Canada are much more liberal than California. You cant smoke Marijuana in a public place here..Now its not a criminal offense or anything a small fine but its not legal.

 

I dont want to smell that shit in public and anywhere I have my kids around.

 

Also its still federally illegal to smoke pot. So if you have any job where you have to be drug tested , you wont pass..

[MapleLeafpoker 1,462]

Pot smells way way way more than cigarettes do and intrudes on others far more.

 

what do you mean by intrudes on others?

dont you think 2nd hand smoke is more harmful than 2nd hand pot?
