3.5mm is an audio source, USB is a data source. Any headphone with a USB plug also has to convert digital to audio, something your phone already does. USB is not a replacement by any means.

No, the need is still present. Headphone jacks are pretty essential still, wireless tech is not a replacement.

8,000 is the average annual total count, usually spread across ~3months (July, Aug, Sept). The 1,100 number quoted is currently burning today. As of August 17 the count (active and extinguished) so far this year was up to 5,765.

The size of fires is really the staggering figure with 13.75 million hectares (137,500 km² roughly the size of Arkansas or Greece) burned so far, while the average annual total burned area is usually only 2.1 million hectares.

This is a bad analysis. Chargers per car is only one way to look at it. What about chargers per capita, chargers per road km, chargers person per land area, etc... oh? In all of those metrics Canadian provinces are leaders? You don't say.

The Departure Bay (near downtown Nanaimo) BC Ferry takes 95minutes of sailing to reach Horseshoe Bay on the west tip of West Vancouver. Then if you're a foot passenger it takes another 41minutes to get to Granville & Georgia via the 257 Express Bus. Total 156minute (2hr & 36min) travel time (excluding any waiting to embark, disembark, catch the bus, etc...).

Foot passenger fees for each leg are $19.45 and $3.15, for a $22.60 total.

Your source was funded and founded by a single political party.

This is an "opinion" writeup in a fringe publication. Why bother sharing such slanted views on our world?

Only the no-children amounts differ.

For example, if you are single you could receive a maximum payment of:

  • $234 if you have no children
  • $387 if you have one child
  • $467 if you have two children
  • $548 if you have three children
  • $628 if you have four children

And, if you are married or have a common-law partner, you could receive up to:

  • $306 if you have no children
  • $387 if you have one child
  • $467 if you have two children
  • $548 if you have three children
  • $628 if you have four children

Isn't this policy sorely needed? Cleaner fuel, maybe higher prices, both of which help slow climate change. We are all trying to switch away from buying gasoline, right? right???

I think it's being rolled out too slowly.
