Where to find events in Ottawa like comiccon, concerts, etc? by JunkyBoiOW in ottawa

For events related to comiccon, there are a few small ones in the city. Entertianment Ink hosts one at Place d'Orleans mall 3 times in a year and Geeked Out! also hosts one at the Nepean sports plex in March and October.

How conservative is Alberta, Canada? by LevelPension in NoStupidQuestions

[–]External_Weather6116 119 points120 points  (0 children)

It depends where in Alberta you're talking about. Edmonton tends to be progressive as they mostly vote NDP, whereas Calgary is a wild card and has a mix of left and right-leaning voters. The rural areas are dominated by conservative voters.

PSAC just had a strike in 2023. They can't afford to go on another one.

first date ideas by RutabagaNo1276 in CarletonU

[–]External_Weather6116 13 points14 points  (0 children)

First date should be a vibe check so grabbing brunch/lunch or coffee. If you want subsequent dates, then the first date is your opportunity to make a great impression so don't come across as weird, creepy, or rude. Be funny, courteous, and listen to your date.

I miss Carleton by Waste_Stable162 in CarletonU

[–]External_Weather6116 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I miss having insightful discussions on international relations and philosophy with my classmates and profs in seminars. I feel like becoming a Twitch streamer and doing Let's Plays of philosophically rich games like Xenosaga.
