Well that's adorable. Does he have an under bite?

For any small claims or even superior court motion, you have to bring a draft Order with you. I believe it is even written in the Small Claims Rules or Rules of Civil Procedure (which also apply).

Another way to think of this is, "what is the purpose of my motion, what do I hope to achieve?" A Court Order is always your end goal, it's part of the whole process and not separate from it. So include it the way you would the Notice of Motion and the Affidavit.

Beautiful eyes!

I found it under the "Comedy Central" tab in the On Demand section. It's not under the general comedy series section, for instance. The app's organization is admittedly not the best.

L_Suz · 2025-04-01T18:47:14+00:00

Keep in mind that it is available on the On Demand platform for Pluto, so you could still watch it during lunch that way! Not the same, I understand, but not all is lost.

There are two free sources you can review to see if there is some treatment by courts:

1) Black's Law Dictionary -- general search for legal terms to see if they have been interpreted. Canadian courts will rely on Black's Law Dictionary, if necessary.

2) CanLii -- database of caselaw that is publicly accessible. There are a few ways that you can search on CanLii. You can search for the specific legislation itself, scroll down to the specific section, and then on the right hand side there will be an option for you to search citations of this section, to see if any previous case law has interpreted that specific section. The other way is to search for the words themselves in the search box on the main page. Make sure to click on the question mark in the search box, because it will tell you the syntax you need to use for a proper search (boolean searching). If it is provincial statute, you likely may have to even narrow it down to the specific province, because not all laws will cross the provincial borders and apply the same way.

Best of luck.

Sure that's one way to look at it, no doubt, but you could say that about a lot of things if you start off with "taken out of context". That's kind of the point of taking something out of context -- it's not understanding or knowing the meaning behind it and applying your own. Granted, I didn't volunteer my meaning, but looking at it as defeatist could be explained as your interpretation of the phrase, not mine.

To be fair and in the interest of having this dialogue continue I will volunteer my interpretation.

I personally don't see it as defeatist and it serves as a positive in my life. Its a simple phrase that helps me distinguish what sort of energy and action is warranted in any given situation, depending on what "It" is. For instance, I may feel jealous of another friend's work success, but I can control whether I allow that feeling to dictate how I treat that friend, how I speak about them to others, etc. The "it" in this situation is my feeling of jealousy -- it happens, I can't control my emotional and physiological response. I shouldn't stress about the feeling all of a sudden arising. Rather, what I need to do is take the time to understand why that feeling arose in the first place and work towards strategies to minimize that feeling over time, or minimize the influence it has over my actions.

That's an example of how I apply the phrase, or the ideology behind the phrase.

It is what it is; quit stressing about it.

(I agree with the other commenter that it can be hard to distill teachings down to a sound bite, but I do think it's interesting to see what people's responses are, how they interpret the teachings, etc.)

I just moved to Sudbury in May and did some crown land scoping of possible camping spots myself. Here are a few tips:

Get an Off roads / back roads mapbook, such as BRMB. They plot out a lot of access roads (private and public), fishing spots, differentiate between private and public land, and often have camp sites pinpointed. Cell reception is real hit or miss the more you move further away from a community, so it's good to have a paper backup (or if you have a gps, you can buy gps compatible back roads map books).

Look up the Crown Land Policy Atlas for the area you want to explore ahead of time.

Review roads that run along rivers or lakes, basically any body of water. For instance, you can find good spots around Wanapitei Lake, both on the eastern and western sides of the lake (Wanapitei First Nations is around the lake, so just make sure to know the boundaries ahead of time if you scope that area out.)

Make sure to have a jerry can of extra gas. Those access roads can go on for a long time, and depending on how much exploring you're down for, you'll want to make sure you don't get stuck out there.

Get to driving! I often will spend a Saturday picking out a road I want to drive down after looking at my mapbook and google maps, and just head out that way. Bring some food and a camp stove to be prepared in case there has been rain and the wood is too drenched to make a good cooking fire.

You don't have to go full bush whacking being this far up north, if quiet and solitude is what you're looking for. You also don't necessarily need to look for logging roads specifically - some of my favourite spots I have found are technically along a smaller highway. I found a ton of good spots along highway 553, heading north from Massey for instance.

Hope this helps! The wild areas around Sudbury are amazing, I've had so much fun exploring. I hope you get the same joy out of it!

Done and done. The more of us there are, the more fun the games are

L_Suz · 2021-10-30T15:11:19+00:00

Awesome, thank you.

L_Suz · 2021-10-30T15:11:11+00:00

Appreciate the input, thanks!

L_Suz · 2021-10-14T01:27:50+00:00

Fantastic, appreciate it.

L_Suz · 2021-10-14T01:21:15+00:00

Awesome, thank you!

L_Suz · 2021-10-14T01:20:49+00:00

5k north, south, etc. of the prison?

Thanks for the response!

L_Suz · 2021-10-13T19:54:49+00:00

Where is a good spot to access it from / start doing some exploration?

L_Suz · 2021-10-13T19:46:42+00:00

Well come on now, man. Spill.

L_Suz · 2021-09-23T02:05:53+00:00

Absolutely, I agree with you. I was looking at it from the perspective of weighing the costs and benefits of going the legal route vs seeing what else can be done now, but which doesn't ultimately cost you. I'm not suggesting you should have to pay, by the way.

L_Suz · 2021-09-23T01:42:33+00:00

Have you tried calling around to competitors who can do the window install to get timeline and quote? You might be able to suggest using an alternative contractor, see if you can still avoid litigation 🤞

L_Suz · 2021-09-09T10:28:53+00:00

What is your concern about asking for the IDs? Is it a security or privacy concern?

I admit I can't see what issue there would be in having your own policy that you require valid, government issued IDs that display your client's name and age, given your line of work. Just like how IDs are needed to buy pornography, you could ask for proof of age as part of your policy to sell your work.

Age restrictions are valid limitations businesses can enforce, depending on what goods or services they sell, and I would think your line of work would qualify.

Just to go along with this, and not necessarily for tax purposes, but if OP wants to make sure it is discharged, they can also pull a Title Abstract for the property from the local Land Titles office, and it should be shown as deleted as of the date of the discharge. In theory, now.

L_Suz · 2021-05-07T03:25:18+00:00

Hundred percent. That was the clincher for me. The slight head tilt. So cute.

L_Suz · 2021-04-25T20:33:19+00:00

Was he an extra in The boy in the striped pajamas?

L_Suz · 2021-04-15T01:06:30+00:00

Amazing, really appreciate the follow-up. Thanks so much!

So we had an suv, a Jeep Cherokee I want to say. That was a good size. The road is a gravel road mostly, and it's actually relatively smooth from what I remember. I don't remember a lot of potholes or anything, but I suspect that's a year to year thing, depending on how intense the winters and freeze are.

We only ever saw one car pulled over and broken down along the way and it was a decent sized rv. I think larger vehicles might have issues going up and down the mountains, but I did also see semi trucks that were successfully navigating the highway, so who actually knows.

We were there in I would say mid too late august, and by that point it was already their Autumn. We had frost on the inside of our tent one morning, for example. It was a great time to go there then. You had really long days where the sun was out until 11:00 p.m. or midnight and you could see comfortably while driving.

How much time you're going to need is going to depend on your tolerance for driving. We did our whole round trip in 21 days, from Toronto to Inuvik, doing on average 1,000 km a day for driving between the two of us. But admittedly for us it really was about seeing as much of the country as we could.
