No exemption for those who wear turbans in N.S. for religious reasons, some other provinces do not require turban wearers to don a helmet.

Provincial Laws for motorcycle driving turban wearers:

Its called *Sikh helmet exemption:

In Canada, Sikh turbans are considered a bona fide religious belief, and some provinces offer hard hat exemptions for Sikhs who wear turbans. These exemptions typically apply to specific situations like motorcycle helmets or where a risk assessment determines hard hats aren't necessary. Workplace safety regulations generally require hard hats where there's a risk of head injury, but accommodations are often made for Sikhs to wear their turbans while still maintaining workplace safety.

Provincial Exemptions:

British Columbia (B.C.):

B.C. has changed its Occupational Health and Safety regulations to allow for risk assessments before requiring hard hats, and Sikhs can wear smaller turbans under hard hats if necessary. This change was aimed at addressing situations where truck drivers, for example, were forced to wear hard hats even though they weren't at risk of head injury.

Alberta and Ontario:

In these provinces, adults (18 or older) who are bona fide members of the Sikh religion and wear a turban are allowed to ride without a helmet.

Manitoba:

Similar to Ontario and Alberta, Manitoba has a codified exemption for turban-wearing Sikhs from the requirement to wear motorcycle helmets.
 
Looks like I am going to have to find some time to do a face book purge.
I just deleted 18 posts in a row. I am very curious.

What makes people think anyone gives a shit, what you ate, if you went bowling
pictures of flowers you bought at Kent or home depot and the list goes on.
Maybe I am wrong, maybe I am the only one that thinks this, maybe most folk's love these posts & pic's :rolleyes:

I like posts of cars, racing, car stuff, cool dog photos, after that it starts getting thin fast

thoughts?
 
I hear what you are saying. Okay, you’ve asked for thoughts on Facebook, here goes. For years, while I was working, I refused to get a Facebook account, or have anything to do with it. Around the time I retired, I bought VR goggles, and had to have a Facebook account to use them. @#$&#@@, I broke down and created a Facebook account to use my VR gear.

Then came the friend requests, most from people I didn’t know, or wanted nothing to do with. Delete, delete, delete. Then there was an odd one from an old work colleague I liked, but had not heard from for years, or relative, which I somewhat reluctantly accepted. I told my wife I wanted no more than 20 friends, real or imaginary :-))), but soon blew by that number.

Before I knew it, I found I was becoming a Facebook poster, something I had said that I would never do. Now I find myself celebrating near strangers birthdays, wedding anniversary’s, pet’s birthdays, etc. How the #&#&# does that happen.

I’ve committed to not becoming a slave to Facebook, I look at it when I want to, not feeling that I can’t dare miss an event in some near strangers life that is important to them, but means nothing to me.

From time to time I do a “friend purge”, but acknowledge that I am still somewhat out of control. Presently showing 127 friends, never had that many friends in my life, nor do I want them. I must confess that the odd time I may have posted something on FB knowing that it would pi#@ certain people off.

Definitely some mixed feelings on the whole FB thing. My apologies for the rant.
 
I started A FB account years ago to help with a non-profit club I belonged to. As an executive, I felt it was a great way to let members know about future activity's taking place at the clubhouse, as well as pictures of activity's that had recently taken place. It became like a news letter. It worked well in keeping people interested, and involved.
Later I found it was a great means of contacting old friends from my school days that had been lost over time. I don't post about my day to day life, as I like my privacy. I usually just post jokes, and interesting pictures or videos I felt others may enjoy.
I joined a few FB groups, local car clubs, racing, and others to do with cars, (Cobra's especially) as their focus of attention. They are somewhat like car forums, in sharing information on parts, mechanical help if needed, etc etc. I even started my own group (Talk Cobra) where we share history, or interesting info, about the AC, and Shelby cars
So far I have been enjoying it.
