Does your province have a job/employment center they fund? For example, BC has WorkBC centres that have job boards and offer services to help edit and build resumes and cover letters.
I do also have to repeat what others have said: get a phone number/plan. While many will reach out by email, some still call.
For the government to bring a bunch over in Project Paperclip? I don’t think they were ever against fascism; they didn’t like Hitler’s version because they didn’t benefit.
10/10 loaf- purrfect form!
I can feel the judgement through my screen.
With homelessness becoming increasingly illegal, they’ll die in some kind of work gulag… sorry, “freedom” camp.
That’s what a control group is. All participants are given the information upfront about the study parameters, called informed consent. Participants can leave a study at anytime.
No one forced them to participate.
While they’re Americanizing names, they might as well bring back Liberty Cabbage and Freedom Fries.
Another country to add to Trump’s annexation list.
Not a movie, but BBC earth series (ie Blue Planet, Frozen Planet, etc) look amazing in 4K. You can see the scales on octopi and feel like you’re underwater with the fish.
Libraries are free.
Unlike other sovcit chicken scratch, this person’s writing is actually legible.
A spider plant might work for your corner. It likes to grow downwards, which may invite being attacked by your cats. A colleague has a spider plant and two cats, and its spiderlings always become cat toys that are detached from the plant.

Hope you feel better soon! You have good company while you recover.
Manifest Destiny has been America’s plan since it won the war for independence from Britain.
If you really want to stretch your soap bars out, you can get small bags that collect small bits of soap. Cheap hosiery also works great (if don’t want to be seen buying it, order the cheapest set off Amazon). These are great for camping!
It’s demographic terminology. Total Fertility rate (or TFR) simply refers to the number of births per woman in a given population.
He’s trying to buy Greenland at least, while annexing the Panama canal.
Sometimes shit happens that makes study commitments unviable. While I was at uni, a friend’s dad became extremely ill, and my friend doing a double major quit her degree to go home to take care of him (he died, unfortunately; she eventually resumed her studies 2 years later with one major). Some people’s funding dries up (cannot get loans, family financing falls through). Other times personal problems make focusing on studies difficult (ie: mental health, addiction, health problems).
People have the best intentions, but life has ways of getting in the way. This assumption that people who don’t graduate are not fully applying themselves is limited and perpetuates negative beliefs about drop outs.
Butchart gardens
Royal museum of British Columbia
Legislative Assembly buildings
Walk around the downtown/waterfront area
