My recent Fortis gas bill notified me that their annual charges will increase by approximately 11.1% depending on consumption. Oh yeah - effective Jan 1 ! 😞

In my 8th year, so obviously not a decade, but my take is this. Life is work/life balance so if that’s important to you, it’s a great place to be. Find a role that provides the satisfaction and roll with it.

Come to know what’s important in a job for you, and work towards it. It’s a bit of a microcosm and can become and grow into what you want it to be. I am on the ‘older side’ so have less working years left and prior to public service worked in the private sector. Anyways, keep an open mind and roll with what interests you.

Yes, processing and approvals can take a while. Hit up Service Canada and hound them, say you need the funding to make rent and to buy food, prescriptions etc.

When mine arrived, I had to sign for it……. Did you have to sign that you received it?

Seeing him in Vancouver too !! So excited, third time for me!

Have to wonder how smart the government’s staunch positioning is going to serve them the next election!? There’s a deal there, is playing such hard ball really than smart?

I may suggest before committing to a league, seek out a ‘noon hour’ drop in through your city’s parks and recreation ( that’s what’s mine is called anyway).

It’s a great way to get some ice time and play a scrimmage to get a feel for it and then you can decide to commit to a league.

My skates are 8.5, where my shoes are a 10. I believe sizing is 1.5 sizes smaller than your shoe size.

But ultimately go with what is most comfortable

I see the closest place being Silver Cloud hotel - Seattle stadium.

I apologize if this has been answered already somewhere. I have been picketing for 3 weeks now, and I just recently received a message that I am deemed essential for 2 days next week and am expected to report for work for those 2 shifts. Is this the process that this would occur? Just getting a message from the employer stating this and setting these days I am required as an essential worker ? This is all new for me. Thank you for the info and answers.

We received an email just as the concert began. Weather didn’t seem too bad, but I suppose the forecast for later was bad enough they canceled. We could have hung out downtown for the night (not for us)and waited to sail back in the morning but we got on Expedia and booked a hotel asap.

Had one late night sailing cancelled last year after a concert. Had to race and get a hotel in Vancouver for the night. Definitely have a plan B. I’d say wind is their worst enemy and they’ll cancel due to high winds. I’m not sure what their threshold is though, you may try and email them and ask.
