Man arrested after driving child-size pink Barbie Jeep through town | CBC News Police and a legal expert say driving any motorized vehicle, including a toy, without a licence and insurance is a punishable offence.

Those clearly aren't aviator sunglasses but otherwise excellent journalism.

Crazy idea: what if we make electricity cost more for non-residential use.

You can get a digital antenna for $10-20. Doesn't need to go on the roof. Should get you all local channels...

I think there are two concerns, the first is that some states can only redistrict after a census, so this would allow red states to gerrymander and get rid of blue districts. The second is that people are concerned that the census data will be manipulated to take away blue seats everywhere.

Suggest your own spending cuts, Carney government tells CBC, Via Rail and other Crown corporations Nearly all government departments and federally-funded organizations are expected to propose "savings" of up to 15 per cent of their spending in the next three years.

During the election campaign, Mark Carney pledged to increase the CBCโ€™s budget by $150 million dollars a year.

Now that heโ€™s in government, heโ€™s telling the public broadcaster to find up to $198 million in annual cuts. He canโ€™t claim to defend the country when heโ€™s gutting its media and culture.

Party leaders hold so much power because voters feel trapped by first-past-the-post and the big-tent parties it creates.

Proportional representation lets people switch parties and still get representation.

That gives leaders a real incentive to listen or lose support fast.

I'm currently enjoying the theory that it's not activists, it's dealers destroying Teslas for insurance money because no one is buying them.

Some things to consider: Are your trips a few days or few weeks? Do you need it for air travel or road trips? Is your travel just airport to hotel and back or are there multiple trains, boats, busses, subways, trucks, mopeds, etc.? Do you travel with a laptop? Suits? Hockey equipment?

I'm a Canadian listening to Trump. Let's talk about 'the 51st state' If the U.S. President-elect is serious about a merger with Canada, here are some things to consider.

This seems like a good starting point, although I would probably add self government for the indigenous peoples. What would you add?
