Truth or opinion without malice is free speech…

EVEN THOUGH you think your right, be careful that permanent mediums have not got it as wrong and defamatory. While most losses have to be proven and a direct result of your maliceicious or deceptiveness there are a couple of iems that loss does not have to be proven.

Slander and libel can not be heard in lower courts only supreme courts can hear them and that is expensive according to sources. Cases are also aggravated by the frequency of publications.

There is no investagative inperiative in the normal world, that remains the relm of NS and war with every other deception that pollutes the style of human endeavour.

So, when you say something what if your wrong? well free speech is discourse in good faith. Diseption is not good faith.

Truth is the commodity

Good luck and stay away from 666.

The number 666 is often associated with the devil or evil due to its mention in religious texts and folklore. However, it is important to note that interpretations of this number vary widely across different cultures and belief systems. Some perceive it as a symbol of negative energy, while others may see it as a mere coincidence or an insignificant number. Ultimately, whether or not one believes in the significance of numbers is a personal choice. It’s always a good idea to focus on positive thoughts and actions rather than dwelling on superstitions or negative interpretations.

Electric vehicles in BC

Electric vehicles (EVs) in British Columbia (BC) are becoming increasingly popular as more people recognize the environmental and economic benefits they offer. The provincial government, along with various organizations, has been implementing initiatives to encourage the adoption of EVs.

BC has an extensive network of charging stations, making it convenient for EV owners to charge their vehicles while on the go. There are different types of charging stations, including Level 1, Level 2, and DC Fast Chargers, catering to the varying charging needs of EV drivers.

One of BC’s notable incentives for EV owners is the Clean Energy Vehicle (CEV) Program. This program provides rebates for the purchase or lease of eligible new electric vehicles, plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, and hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles. The amount of the rebate depends on the type of vehicle and its battery capacity.

In addition to the CEV Program, BC offers other incentives, such as reduced toll rates for EVs crossing certain bridges and priority access to high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes. These benefits make owning an EV in BC more affordable and convenient.

Furthermore, the provincial government has set ambitious goals to transition to a cleaner transportation system. BC aims to have all new light-duty vehicles sold be zero-emission vehicles (ZEVs) by 2040. This commitment demonstrates BC’s dedication to reducing greenhouse gas emissions and promoting sustainable transportation.

Overall, the future looks promising for electric vehicles in BC. With a supportive government, a robust charging infrastructure, and enticing incentives, more residents are expected to make the switch to electric vehicles, contributing to a greener and more sustainable future for the province.
