Question:

Smoke detector intentionally disabled?

I live in an apartment in Neepawa Manitoba. I decided to unscrew my smoke detector yesterday because I noticed that there was a light on there.. and i've never seen it blink. When I pulled it down from the roof there were 2 wires sticking outta my roof, and two sticking out of the detector. Is it illegal for a landlord to rent me an apartment without a working smoke detector?

Answer:

Just dress your best in what you have and be clean and neat. You probably will be asked to test anyway depending on the position. So I'd make sure your prepared for that as well.
The executive branch is to make sure it acts without bias or malfeasance, with results better than execution of policy. To be sure, failure to ask tough questions of the military or challenge wartime decisions is neither new to Congress nor limited to Republicans. Therefore, the golden rule of congressional oversight, more than not, oversight of foreign policy has taken the form of fire alarm hearings. In todays society both respond to scandals and crises, rather than that of police patrols, designed to prevent problems before they occur. Both congressional oversight and fire alarm oversight, work better when you have a president that is well liked by the congress no matter what party affiliation. Something we will not have with Hillary Rodham Clinton or Rudolph Guiliani or Mitt Romney or John McCain or Richardson or Paul or Kucinish or Gravel or: Must I go on? [And I disagree with the answer below, whereas the constituents concerns are not fire alarms - in light of war and the issues of our fraudulent congress that co-mingles benchmarks with funds meant to aid our troops.]
