Yeah she’s in Gr 12. We are thinking about what to do about it so there aren’t repercussions for her. There is still 4 wks to go in the season

This alone is disqualifying. If this schmuck is gonna LEAVE THE CITY if he loses, he doesn't love the city enough to deserve to win.

who creates the lively art and music scenes if the rent is too high? who makes cultural life? who serves you food or washes your dishes? who creates the fancy little restaurants that draw you to urban living? affordable housing is at the heart of what makes city life worthwhile.

Do you ever just feel like not eating. I get in this mode every once in a while. I’m not sure if I’m just not hungry or do don’t feel like making anything or both. I know I should eat but just can’t be bothered

So what do you do when you know your kids coach intentionally threw a game in a tournament so he could catch an earlier ferry home? How do you complain without it having massive repercussions on your kid when the sport community is very small

Doug Ford government proposes to allow tenant evictions when leases are up in new bill Currently, tenants are protected from eviction unless there is a legal reason — such as unpaid rent or the landlord wants to move in — even after their lease expires.

The thing that gets me the most in this bill to circumvent renters' security and rent controls is the whinging excuse of mom-and-pop landlords trying to pay the mortgage.
They took the risk on that property. They are not owed the ability to always make a profit.

US ‘on a trajectory’ toward authoritarian rule, ex-officials warn A network of former intelligence and security officers says democratic decline is accelerating under Trump’s rule

Retired intelligence analysts confirm what the political scientists are telling us — and what the world outside is telling us — the goal of these people is the end of law, the end of democracy, and the end of a recognizable republic.

Nowhere did I say that, and I don’t think they are required to. I asked why is this coming on the heels of a leadership review and vote? What has happened between then and now. Explanations were given as to why the executive no longer have confidence.

OMG just had the funniest interaction with a guy that is doing some work at our place. My kid is home from school and we are sitting on the couch. He was busy working, I decided to play Fortnite waiting for him. Kid got up to do something else. He comes in and asks me “is your mom still here?” 😂

The same people who lost their minds over Obama putting his feet on the Oval Office desk are totally fine with Trump bulldozing the White House.

Where the hell is leadership? are there no sane republicans left that aren’t cowards? Where are the American people? Why are you all sitting back watching this happen? I know you have work right 🙄

This is so bad. If I was a tenant in ON I would not sign a lease that had less than a 3 yr term. This is just going to creat an even bigger housing crisis than there already is

Have to go to Victoria. Really hoping the forecasted storm holds off. I don’t want to be on a ferry in stormy conditions or have the ferry cancelled. I’ve had vertigo for 2 wks so the prospect of being on a boat in stormy weather is not awesome.

Is there nothing else going on in BC? This has been reported for months and months now. There has to be something else happening that a “journalist” can report on.

OMG I can’t believe that Globals News has spent more than five minutes on a story about a family paying $2.48 more than they should have for parking in Stanley Park. That’s the hard hitting local news I was hoping for 🙄 @globalnews.ca

They are stealing from the American taxpayers and destroying publicly owned landmarks. No one will do anything though, there is a leadership void and people won’t bother to get out behind their keyboards to protest.
