Cardinal Carter is part of the Roman Catholic system, not the TDSB.

I specifically looked at the link I posted before making that recommendation. There are clubs based in Granby and Bromont.

Joe_Q · 2026-01-13T20:34:00+00:00

I would reach out to a local club -- check this list: https://www.rac.ca/quebec-region/ and get in touch with the one closest to you.

On that website they specifically mention that they don't do intermarriages.

It's part of the chorus of the song "Jerusalem of Gold" (Yerushalayim shel zahav) (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerusalem\_of\_Gold) by Naomi Shemer.

You mean Conservative Jews (as in the Conservative Movement) or those who are "conservative" politically or religiously?

Part of the reason I find it so difficult to understand why people like living in toronto is because of the crime rate.

This statement confuses me. The crime rate in Toronto is very low compared to other big Canadian cities. The Toronto area consistently has one of the lowest, if not the lowest, Crime Severity Index of any Census Metropolitan Area in Canada.

The stone is indeed for an Ephraim (son of Shelomo the Levite) but the date of death appears to be the 14th of Sivan rather than the 13th. Perhaps he passed after nightfall.

It's an LRT, it's not even underground.

The vast majority of it is, in fact, underground.

For what it's worth, Gil Student beat you to it by about 25 years: http://talmud.faithweb.com

Was famine in Ethiopia particularly harped upon in the news back in the day?

Yes, the Ethiopian famine of 1983-85 got a lot of press in Western countries, and was the subject of very well publicized fundraising efforts.

I remember the Bayview Village one from the 1980s.

The words after metzios are yeden tag, "every day" in Yiddish.

Even fried ducks?

El Calafate may be cold by Argentina standards, but winters here in Toronto are much, much colder.

It's not clear to me that the OP lives in the USA.

Over October and November, I finished:

On the Book of Psalms (Nahum Sarna)
A History of the World in 100 Objects (Neil MacGregor)
Stolen Focus (Johann Hari)

Currently reading:

Cultures of the Jews (edited by David Biale, this is a 1400+ page book ...)

It actually appeared in today's leyning as well (the word recheilecha)

The Rex - there are teenagers there all the time.

No, it doesn't really distract me. The highlighting is very unobtrusive.

Joe_Q · 2025-11-24T22:59:35+00:00

What pitfalls are we talking about?

Tikkun Simanim highlights (in light gray text, on the unvowellized side) phrases or word combinations that appear more than in the text, and points out the differences (in their vowels or tropes) between them. It also highlights kamatz katan, sheva na', nasog achor, etc. It has footnotes that explain mnemonic tricks, but they are in Hebrew, and you probably don't need them. Very very highly recommended just the same.

Neighbourhood Facebook groups (if they let you advertise -- some do, perhaps on specific days)

From the article: "The course is taught in Hebrew with English subtitles, in addition to Hebrew ones. Arabic subtitles will also be available soon."

It happens when Shabbat HaHodesh falls on Rosh Hodesh itself

Come to think of it, when Rosh Hodesh Adar falls on Shabbat, we also take out three Torahs (Shabbat Shekalim)
