I always thought it would make sense to have an exterior air intake to the back of a stove/cooktop that brought fresh air in, and then vented directly out above the stove. The intake opens when the fan turns on.

Samsung is brutal. I think we're gonna bite the bullet and replace our functional but glitchy Samsung fridge and gas range (to induction). Our Samsung washer/dryer kinda suck, too, but not enough to replace yet.

Our GE induction range is 11 years old and only the convection fan is non-functional. Our Samsung fridge is about the same age and though functional, all of the clear plastic parts (door bins, drawers, shelves) on the inside have become brittle and cracked/broken. Replacing them all would cost more than a new fridge.

Yeah, they are now part of the building code for new builds. Since 2016 I think.

Well kind of. They are installed in most new buildings because you are allowed to reduce the amount of insulation in exterior walls and roofs if you include one to the extent that it usually covers the cost of the HRV.

Tonnes of posters have tried to engage you, but you a caricature.
You never responded to this post, which very politely asked you to engage.

I understand that Smith has a different view on the matter than Kenney did, but seriously, it's the exact same cast of characters (MLAs) behind her. You know, the ones that supported the vaccine mandates or at least sat by during the vaccine mandates.
The mental gymnastics you have to be doing in your head to support the UCP is mind boggling.
It's like how the anti-vaxxers in the US still love Trump. Trump is very pro-vaccine and has even taken credit for their fast approvals. Yet tons of his own supporters denounce the vaccines, especially for their fast approvals. lol
And what the hell does 'retribution' for the unvaxxed even look like for you?
(I'm participating in a discussion with you, because a few days ago several posters got upset with people bashing you. They instead wanted us to discuss with you. So I'm super excited to hear your thoughts on the matter and for the discussion we can both participate in.)

Why bother saying it's a two horse race? There are no circumstances where there was ever going to be a third horse here. What a dumb headline.

Apparently an election being even somewhat contested is big news for AB.

The media is projecting this wrong anyway though, as usual. They're looking at the percentage of votes and saying it's a close race, but that's somewhat misleading. I think that Smith and the UCP have a major problem here because the distribution of the votes is not good for them. They have a commanding lead rurally, and that makes the percentages seem closer than they really are. But when you consider the seats and how those votes are distributed it has to be the NDP with a lead here, and potentially sizeable.
You can win a seat with say one more percent than everyone else. But winning with say 70% of the vote still equals one seat. So, its kind of irrelevant. For a poll like this, it helps even out the percentages, but won't result in more seats.
The media does this every election. It's more evident on the prairies, federally, but it's the same mistake.

Isn't it the opposite? The UCP vote is much more efficient than the NDP.
The NDP have to sweep Edmonton and surrounding areas and win the majority of Calgary.
The 338 Canada article that Yoho (I know, I know) posted earlier actually talked about that:
Quote:
— The X factor: The regional distribution of votes will matter a great deal in the 2023 Alberta election. Although the Alberta NDP is polling well above its 2019 results, it suffers from a vote efficiency disadvantage. Why? In rural and small-town Alberta, polling shows the UCP enjoys dominant support. It gives Smith’s Conservatives a much higher floor of safe seats.
Put another way, because the NDP vote remains highly concentrated in Edmonton and Calgary, Notley’s party could tie or even surpass the UCP by a handful of points and still lose the election to the UCP.

It's still a tough go for the NDP though. Calgary has several blue seats, and it's not an easy task to flip all of them, which the NDP pretty much requires. Best case for them is a 3rd party of "crazier than the UCP" to siphon a few percent away.
