What the fuck do we pay ever increasing property taxes for? More virtue signaling idiots to sit on council?

Just finished shoveling my car out of my driveway and the 2 ft snow bank from the snow plows.
A good 8 inches of snow last night.
Now in the sun, my car is showing 3C.
It's gonna be an ice rink tonight.

Someone asked about a great place to take their kid sledding sliding down hillside. Best place, if you’re in Burnaby is Alpha Secondary. Need to make sure you’re there to stop your kid from going straight into traffic. It’s not crowded at all. Come to think of it, most of the secondary schools in Burnaby have huge hills. The one by Gaglardi. Hell, even North Burnaby Secondary has a few nice slopes. I used to take my children to the hill at VCC and the one by Knight and 33rd. Good times. Crowded as fuck, but that’s what made it great.

I was in a friend's 4runner last night. 91 was basically reduced to 1 lane, AF reduced to 2 lanes. We made our own lane lol.
AF was so bad you had cars driving slow in the middle of the road, people going around them too.. like ???

Very impressed by snow removal here in my area (South Surrey). Main roads have been plowed like 10 times per day lol. They did the side roads last night. I've never seen this kind of efficiency before.

It's a giant watery mess out there... And with all that melting snow / slush and an ambient temperature hovering above and below 0°C for the entire upcoming week and more, the streets and the driving are not gonna be pretty... |

We finally had our streets plowed this morning, first time since I've lived here in 2 years. Friday's garbage though still not picked up.

Probably the worst time to not pickup the green bin when it's Christmas and everyone is generating lots of compost garbage.
My green bin is completely full and it's still 3 days until the next pick up.

For us, the cancelled green bin pick up is still something we can handle since it'll at least get picked up the following week. The missed garbage pick up, on the other hand, is gonna be disastrous. The next garbage pick up isn't until 2 weeks later (10 days from now), and you just know that is gonna be ugly for a lot of households, including mine.
The really sucky thing is -- my garbage was supposed to get picked up last Wed and there wasn't even that much snow accumulation, and CoV has already indicated that City staff were cancelling green bin pick up to focus on garbage collection. But even then, garbage pick up did not happen. CoV then emailed us to leave our garbage bins out for the following day if it didn't get picked up on Wed, and of course by Thur, that's when the super heavy snowfall has accumulated overnight.
Garbage collection and arterial snow removal are what I'd consider to be pretty basic and essential municipal gov services. And even then, CoV is dropping the ball on it. |
