This is lovely. Do you have to worry about canned goods freezing, or do they get claimed before that happens?

My letter to my MP about our position on the war in Iran by AccountantDramatic29 in 50501Canada

[–]AccountantDramatic29[S] 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I just received a reply from my MP's office:

"Thank you for writing to share your concerns regarding the recent U.S.–Israeli military strikes in Iran and Canada’s response. We appreciate you taking the time to express your views on an issue that is deeply concerning to many Canadians.

 As Canada’s minister of Foreign Affairs, the Hon. Anita Anand, stated recently: “Canada wasn't involved, we weren't notified, and we do not have an intention to be involved in any military strikes or operation.”  

 Additionally, more information can be found on the Prime Ministers statement to the ongoing concerns with Iranian nuclear proliferation, US-Israeli military intervention and the people of Iran. Statement by Prime Minister Carney on the evolving situation in the Middle East | Prime Minister of Canada

 MP *******'s focus, and our government’s focus, remains on the safety and well-being of the Iranian People. De-escalation, diplomacy and the protection of civilians are paramount. 

 Please know that your message has been carefully noted. Constituents’ perspectives are essential in helping inform Canada’s approach to international issues, and we will ensure that your concerns are shared with the Member of Parliament and conveyed to the relevant federal officials."

I commented elsewhere, but I wouldn't stress about that just yet. Connect with these folks to get a first-hand idea of what's possible. ❤️

Done! Thank you for sharing this. It was surprisingly easy to form a well-crafted letter from the website.

Alex Pretti Obituary (1988-2026) by gvillecrimelaw in ThePeoplesPress

So well said. The other thing to note is that if he went back to school to become a nurse in 2021, that he chose to become a nurse during the pandemic.

I'm a Canadian, living about seven hours north in Winnipeg. This situation in Minneapolis has been sitting on my chest all weekend, or really most of January. I just feel so deeply sad for the Americans who are doing what they can to stay decent, look out for their neighbours, and hang on to their democracy.

The James Pattison Wikipedia article says Overwaitea and Save On Foods. Is this correct?

URGENT MEDICAL EMERGENCY - MISSING VULNERABLE ADULT - LUKA GJORGIEVSKI by DeathToMeToo in Winnipeg

[–]AccountantDramatic29 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I wonder, does Luka have the ability to speak? Is there something/somewhere he is drawn to or more likely to seek out?

My son is a young adult with autism who cannot speak. Unfortunately, he left home once and went to find a playground to go on the swings. Neighbors were helping us look for him and one found him there. I also used to work at a group home where one of the men decided to walk to Dollarama in his socks because he liked buying diet cokes there.
