TORONTO (Friday, April 7, 2017)   The Chevrolet Bolt EV was recognized today with the 2017 Canadian Green Car Award at the Green Living Show. This is the second consecutive Car of the Year win for Chevrolet, after the Volt took home the award in 2016.

The Bolt EV, winner of this year’s Zero Emission category, was selected by a panel of top Canadian automotive journalists from among six category winners as the vehicle that best combines environmental benefits and mass-market appeal. This year, the 2017 Chevrolet Volt won in the Plug-in Hybrid category.

  1. You know how some movies can be so bad that they're secretly kind of good? Truth or Dare might be one of those movies.https://365movies.is


    As far as being legitimately good, it's not. It's terrible. It's littered with nonsensical reactions, silly dialogue, and unintentionally hilarious moments. Maybe those weird smiles that every character makes at one point are scary to others, but I found them funny every time. rampage 2018


    The movie is pretty straightforward, but I'll give a brief explanation anyway. A group of friends goes to Mexico on spring break. While there, a stranger invites them to play truth or dare in a creepy abandoned church. the devil's candy movie
    It turns out that the game is possessed by a demon who follows them and forces them to continue playing the game until every player is dead. Fail a dare, you die. Tell a lie, you die. Refuse to play, you die.

    The game and movie are essentially Jumanji crossed with Final Destination. It's PG-13, so it's not nearly as graphic as Final Destination, which I didn't mind. watch Avengers Infinity War online
