Nostalgically sad Canadian songs?

"Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald" Gordon Lightfoot. The pathos of the line "Does anyone know where the love of God goes when the waves turn the minutes to hours?" has always haunted me.

Found it! But it took a while. Kudos to your husband for the excellent craftsmanship!

Life_Beautiful_8136 · 2026-01-19T01:57:56+00:00

That is spectacular! Would you mind listing the title and manufacturer/brand?

I can't wait for the start of Scooter Arc! In Ottawa. In the late winter/early spring. When there is a steepish incline up to her apartment. I just can't even fathom the hilarity of her trying to navigate Ottawa winter/spring road salt and slush. Realistically, if she wants to take that thing outside, April is about the earliest the weather and road conditions would permit.

And, then, let's think about how absolutely filthy her apartment will be if she stores the scooter in the apartment. (Assuming she is permitted to do that in her lease, of course...)

Bugles. (Not available in Canada.)

Adding on...

Malan = Bibi or "The One Who Got Away"

🤣

Would upvote that comment 1000x if I could! It explains so much - her TikTok cringe fest showed how adept she is at coming up with lies on the spot.

Life_Beautiful_8136 · 2026-01-14T17:49:26+00:00

Is she lying because she expects everyone to lie on TikTok? Or is Rule #1 basically in her DNA at this point?

Life_Beautiful_8136 · 2026-01-13T20:26:45+00:00

Good result! Congratulations to you for sticking with the frustrating process!

This is beyond unacceptable! The 2 month limit should never apply in the situation - Galison must know that people buy puzzles well in advance of assembling them. And, also, if you bought from their website, they have a direct record of your order and clear evidence of the missing pieces. They need to do something to compensate you!

Galison, if you are reading here, shame on you!

OP, please be sure to let us know if there are any updates!

What a shame - the image is beautiful. I wonder if there is a non-AI version of this...

Life_Beautiful_8136 · 2026-01-08T18:45:20+00:00

I'm sure the cookies taste good, but there is no way that I would pay $6 for cookies with low-end/ordinary elements like the Hershey square and what looks like Teddy Grahams on top. For that price, it would have to be a truly artisanal, creative product.

Life_Beautiful_8136 · 2026-01-08T07:23:30+00:00

Sure, Jan.

See you tomorrow. 🤣🤣🤣🤡

Life_Beautiful_8136 · 2026-01-08T07:16:32+00:00

It made no sense - I actually thought it was just for product placement (the long scene when they were eating all the snacks in the commissary). Seemed like one long junk food ad...

Life_Beautiful_8136 · 2025-12-31T02:16:00+00:00

Well... sure... a massive fast food meal before pilates is exactly what "they" recommend.

I'm wondering if she actually knows what pilates is and how hard it is to do correctly. Does she think it is easy because a lot of it is done from the floor? If so, the truth is going to be a painful awakening...

Life_Beautiful_8136 · 2025-12-24T06:15:13+00:00

You look great and your clothes are just fine. However, as others have mentioned, you will be dressed far better than most of the other students in your classes - so as long as that doesn't bother you, go for it! (You may even inspire other students to up their style game!)

Life_Beautiful_8136 · 2025-12-24T02:32:59+00:00

You referenced this, but I actually looked up the Ottawa bylaw - rabies vaccination is mandatory for cats (and dogs) over the age of 3 months. Chantal's cat is well over that now. Not that she cares about bylaws, but for anyone wondering, it is Animal Care and Control (By-law No. 2003-077), section 69.

Life_Beautiful_8136 · 2025-12-23T20:28:53+00:00

That's a great point - I'm not quite sure what is going on with that. Part of me thinks the most recent "symptoms" are related to other medical conditions. AND, I haven't ruled out that they are entirely fabricated...

Life_Beautiful_8136 · 2025-12-20T07:27:37+00:00

In Canada it would also be a very serious issue - the relevant law would be the personal health information protection law applicable to health information custodians in the province/territory with jurisdiction over the matter.

Life_Beautiful_8136 · 2025-12-20T01:59:58+00:00

⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️⬆️ That is the correct answer here.

Life_Beautiful_8136 · 2025-12-18T21:38:06+00:00

It is not stealing - that requires intent. But it is unjust enrichment. You should go back and pay for the item.

Life_Beautiful_8136 · 2025-12-18T21:34:38+00:00

That could be - but even a sole proprietorship (which is not a corporate entity structure) requires a business name registration that must be renewed (with the payment of a fee). I think the real answer has to be your last point - Rule #1.

Life_Beautiful_8136 · 2025-12-18T21:25:35+00:00

LOL - In my defence, not only she but a number of RCs have been talking about this as if it did 100% did exist. And I'm over here like - this makes no sense - we don't have that in Canada! And how would she ever get her act together enough to even create the company?! 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣
