I think workers' rights legislation would go a long way to making Canada Post more competitive even without many changes. It's hard to compete with slavery.
Canada Post has to pay their employees benefits and vacation. All the other delivery companies are relying on the gig economy, and probably paying their "contractors" less than minimum wage, and certainly no benefits.
The Ion has automatic signal priority in some places, but at other intersections it only uses its priority if it's behind schedule. I think it could, in theory, run the whole route without stopping at all.
Racism seems to be getting worse in Canada, but right now it's mostly directed at Indians (or south Asians in general).
That's not ambiguity, that's you willfully misinterpreting a definitive statement.
I don't know what the sign that you parked at said, because you haven't told us. I do know that you're arguing against literally everyone in this thread trying (unsuccessfully) to get anyone to agree with you. Based on that, I'm guessing the problem wasn't with the signage.
How is that ambiguous? You can only park there if you're charging. If the charger is broken, you're not charging, so you can't park there.
It's only ambiguous in the sense that, you could park there, and run an extension cord to the closest building and plug in and now you're technically charging but not using the city's charging infrastructure as I'm sure they intended when they wrote that sign.
What did the sign say?
Many of the public charging spots in my city say "reserved for EV charging only", which unambiguously means that you can only park there if you're charging. If the charger is broken, you can't charge there, so you can't park there.
Everything except the full spelling is the verbatim headline from the article. I don't think this community has a rule about using the exact headline, but many communities do, and it's pretty good practice.
Getting some skin in the game. Can't you read?
I think he's asking for dick pics.
It doesn't have a battery cooling system, so the batteries degrade quickly and significantly.
Newer models are slightly better, but not as good as pretty much every other option.
Do any of them implement blocking for piracy websites in the way that Japan wants?
Anecdotal, but my 2019 Tesla model 3 is at 86% of the original rated range. At max charge it shows 332 km, and it was rated for 390 or so when I bought it. The battery has another 2 years of warranty, but that only kicks in if it drops to 70%, which I don't think will happen.
As for buying used, as long as you avoid Nissan Leaf, I don't think there would be a huge issue with any other model. I wish this article had broken down the models that needed battery replacements rather than just by year, because I suspect the issues are going to be concentrated in a few specific makes or models.
There are EVs that are 10+ years old already. Most of them Tesla. But you can take a look at that, and hopefully it'll help you figure out whether the degradation is acceptable to you. As a quick rule of thumb, I think 80% after 5 years is pretty normal, but the degradation also slows down over time.
Mpg is worse than its inverse gpm, because it's not linear, and humans are really bad at comparisons of non-linear values.
Consider 3 vehicles. They get 10 mpg, 20 mpg, and 40 mpg. With these numbers, it's obvious which is the most efficient, but it's not easy to tell how efficient. For instance, will you get more fuel savings trading in your 10 mpg for the 20 mpg, or the 20 mpg for the 40 mpg vehicle?
Instead, if we look at those vehicles with their gpm ratings, we can quickly tell how much benefit we get from upgrading. Respectively, they are 10, 5, and 2.5 gallons per 100 miles, and it's much easier to see that going from 10 to 20 mpg is a much bigger improvement than going from 20 to 40 mpg.
