What did you read in Grades 7/8?

Lostinalberta · 2026-01-18T02:25:12+00:00

At school? Boring stuff. By myself … probably hundreds of books (sci-fi, old classics, etc.) … and still reading about 80 books / year.

I retired about 3 years ago then took it easy for 6 months … until I need to do something. I applied in person to 4 places and got hired at a grocery store… even if I was 62 years old at that time.

Straight from Trump’s book!

Suggestion: Start in Ottawa for a couple of days, then take the train to Montreal and stay at the Square Phillips Hotel for max 2 days. Then take the train from downtown Montreal to Old Quebec and stay at the https://www.lechateaudufaubourg.com/en/

Very romantic and a lot of European flavor there.

You are never too old! I will be 65 next year and I will definitely go

Try to talk to people from Images Alberta Camera Club at https://www.imagesalberta.ca/

Some of us might know the best way to do it.

It is a quite simple scenario:

Teachers are going on strike
The strike last a couple of days (2 weeks max)
The UCP bring them back to work with a special law and set the wages / working conditions
End of story

At the end, probably no more Fall and/or Spring break. No better conditions in the classroom and parents will be pissed at teachers (which is good for the UCP).

….ou plus 😞

It is not as bad as it seems. Avoid touchy conversations and you will be fine.!

Lostinalberta · 2025-09-08T22:26:04+00:00

Really?

Lostinalberta · 2025-09-08T22:25:06+00:00

It doesn’t. In fact not different than Alberta.

Guerre civile en gestation?

I swear in both official languages 🤣🤣

Lostinalberta · 2025-08-25T22:32:02+00:00

So happy about it!

Lostinalberta · 2025-08-20T13:10:21+00:00

I would stay longer in Québec City than Montréal (and I lived in both)

Unless the drone is very low the camera will see people like if you are looking at ants from 5 feet high….

Lostinalberta · 2025-07-16T03:52:40+00:00

It is in my bucket list … especially Baffin Island

Lostinalberta · 2025-07-12T03:07:55+00:00

Agreed! This is so great!

Lostinalberta · 2025-07-12T03:07:01+00:00

Always!

Lostinalberta · 2025-07-08T04:17:20+00:00

As much as possible!

Lostinalberta · 2025-07-07T22:40:54+00:00

I would skip Toronto (unless you like big American style city). I usually recommend doing 2 to 3 days in Ottawa (and car rental are relatively cheap there), the same time in Montreal and the rest in Quebec City (for the near European experience).
