    Modo The Car Co-op is a Metro Vancouver carsharing co-operative. It was incorporated in 1997, making it the oldest carsharing organization in the area, first carshare co-op in North America and the first carshare in the English-speaking world.

    As of 2015, the member-owned not-for-profit carshare has more than 13,000 members with 400 vehicles in more than 250 locations across Metro Vancouver, including Vancouver, Richmond, UBC, Surrey, New Westminster, Burnaby, North Vancouver, Coquitlam and Port Moody. Vehicles include hybrids, minivans, pickup trucks, cargo vans and conventional sedans; 11% of Modo's fleet is hybrid or fully electric. Vehicles can be booked for immediate use or up to a year in advance, for as short as 1 hour or as long as 30 days.

    Members each have a fob that will open the vehicle they have reserved at the time they have reserved it.

    Other carshares in the region include Zipcar and car2go, the latter of which is not actually a "carshare" as defined by the worldwide CarSharing Association. Modo is a two-way carshare, meaning the vehicle must be returned to its home location at the end of a booking so that the next member can pick it up at the time of their booking.

    Modo (Wireless device)

    The Modo was a wireless device developed by Scout electromedia and was officially announced on August 28th, 2000. Utilizing pager networks, the device was designed to provide city-specific "lifestyle" content such as restaurant & bar reviews, movie listings, in addition to original Scout-produced content.

    The industrial design was done by IDEO (which took an investment in the startup), while the device software was based on Pixo's operating system (the OS that later powered the Apple iPod). All of the electrical engineering, wireless development, and system development were done in-house by the company.

    After the company was funded, one of its venture backers, Flatiron out of Manhattan, backed a similar company, Vindigo, which aimed to bring a broader range of information to the Palm Pilot platform. Because of Scout's focus on delivering mobile information to a young design-conscious audience that had no interest in using a traditional PDA, Vindigo was considered by the backers to be a complementary product offering.

    Imported Society

    by: M.O.D.

    They came from the other side
    In bunches at a time
    Crowding up the neighborhood
    To raise the rates of crime
    Some of them got money
    Most of them got shit
    All they do is come here
    To take from our pockets
    Import, import, imported society
    Import, import, imported society
    Import, import, imported society
    Import, import, imported society
    Don't you fucking see
    That you bother me
    Genocide
    You can't hide
    So go home now
    Don't come back
    Take your goat
    Get on your boat
    I hate imports
    I don't want to hear their shit
    I hate imports
    Cause I'm just so sick of it
    I just want to
    Live my life without you fucking assholes
    And I want to
    Never see your ass again
    Import, import, imported society
    Import, import, imported society
    Import, import, imported society
    Import, import, imported society
    Hindus and Ethiopians
    You know they're all the same
    A huck a buck of Indians
