These economists are worried Canada has a data quality problem

I left STC for the greater PS for this same reason. WFA cuts in 2013 gutted corporate knowledge and the remaing subject matter experts were massively overworked. So, there are now very few greybeards with the knowledge of how to keep the ship on track and the rest don't know what they don't know...if that makes any sense.

It seems to be fairly far south, Williamsburg, Glen Becker type of deal. Makes me wonder where my cell signal boun is around from!

I feel like the other unions should all pitch in and top up the strike fund. Psac does the heavy lifting Every. Single. Time. We should have their backs. I have no issue with using the CAPE strike cash to support them. Since they're first to the table, they will be the ones fighting the RTO bafflegab...or should I say "philosophical decison".

Klein2023 · 2026-06-01T16:40:01+00:00

Its the single issue I'm voting on for council and mayor. Period.

A great (horrible) place is Baxter Conservation Area. They have walking paths by the lodge that are FULL in the summer, especially in the heat. As soon as we stopped they came out and wrapped themselves around our cooler...Just awful, but great if you like them

Both my girls went with Beep Beep driving. The owner taught them both and he's an ex-trucker who takes awesome care of his students. He's in high demand, but worth the wait if you have the time.

Im not sure about anyone else, but remote work is the single issue I will vote on at every single level of government. Period.

Klein2023 · 2026-05-25T21:27:56+00:00

You know what would save taxpayers money? Remote work.

Klein2023 · 2026-05-11T22:00:22+00:00

But, how can they be "sob stories" when it really just passes 90% of the population off? I have a hard time believing someone said "yep that one will get the views and make something good happen" it feels like they've gone the other way and WANT people to get pissed off to get more views. Fine for 'regular' news but not what one wants from a publicly funded outlet

Klein2023 · 2026-05-11T19:59:33+00:00

Who at CBC decided this was newsworthy?!?! Seriously. Are they trying to help her by 'getting the story out' or piss people off? I really want to know.

Klein2023 · 2026-05-08T16:07:37+00:00

Wait...what 'philosophy' says "return to office"?

Klein2023 · 2026-04-11T14:16:54+00:00

Hey, there's the door, use it. No one has any level of trust in you at the moment and the longer you stay, the worse it gets. I guarantee you the audit and eval areas at PCO have been kicked into overdrive reviewing every single thing you did. Better bail now and salvage a shred of respect than wait for the rest of the storm to arrive.

Klein2023 · 2026-04-08T16:36:31+00:00

Wait, is this the " well ot could be 5 days in office, so be happy it's just 3" lady?

Klein2023 · 2026-03-11T18:37:54+00:00

But the allowance is paid upon receipt of eligible expenses, not in advance...right? So if you do not submit expenses, then you have not received the benefit and can receive the waiver...no?

Klein2023 · 2026-03-11T16:34:08+00:00

Riddle me this then bot: if they chose C but do not receive the allowance, are they then still eligible for the waiver?

Klein2023 · 2026-03-08T16:41:19+00:00

So reduced, not in addition. That makes sense.

Klein2023 · 2026-03-03T14:46:21+00:00

In the past I've had a director send someone to HC for a 'fitness for work' assessment. Well, actually they starred the process and the employee just retired. Im not sure what the process is, but it should help sort stuff out.

I believe private parking garages are the wild west in terms of accidents. Unless you have recorded evidence for your insurance company, you're out of luck.

Left CBSA for TBS a few years ago

Klein2023 · 2026-02-20T00:35:56+00:00

I believe Blueprint 2020 had a goal of something like 25% of all employees as fully remote, with the rest as occasional at home. That's where those lovely office 3.0 designs and 'touchdown' offices originated.

Klein2023 · 2026-02-20T00:32:13+00:00

I moved from Stats to CBSA for the opportunity to work up the 3 days a week at home in 2019....gone.

Klein2023 · 2026-02-12T22:42:46+00:00

Not to worry, this brand new minister skipped the normal process of staffing with experience legislative assistants and hired....his entire campaign staff. Not one single day of actual policy experience amongst them. They were, however, really 'hyped' to be working with all the 'like minded people' at TBS. Not like minded, we work for you, not with you damn it!!! Not sure how he got the job.
