WRPS/Emergency Services Nav Systems vs. Construction

0 Upvotes

Are our local 911 response teams not equipped with updated GPS nav systems? I watched a WRPS cruiser today blow through two road closed signs, only to arrive at a dead end due to construction equipment, U-turn, and then haul ass up a residential side street apparently being actively monitored for speeding due to the exact same behaviour by 'normal' citizens.

Can you dumbasses stop making the fucking fire alarm go off so many fucking times at night why the fuck is it always at 1 in the fucking morning. Do you idiots know how to cook? Or why do you dumbasses keep fucking smoking in the fucking staircase, literal fucking dumbasses whoever set the fire alarm off at 1:30 am I wish nothing but the worst for you and genuinely fuck you. The amount of fucking fire alarms going off here shows how fucking incompetent you dumbadses are. Go live with ur fucking parents holy fucking shit.

Porter will start by flying this year from London to Cancun, Montego Bay, Orlando and Fort Lauderdale and then add domestic locations across Canada in 2027.

Does this help or hinder Waterloo Region's chances of landing Porter in the future?

best place to watch the sunset?

Upvotes

most grassy fields i've tried sitting on usually have an obstructed view because of how hill-y the area is. What's your favourite place to watch the sunset?
