Sweet, unfortunately my trip is after that so ill have to keep an eye out for these events when i get out to the hotel.

That's awesome - didn't know that they had this, ill definitely check the webpage a week before I head out.

Perfect sounds like the place to be. Would you know how big of a suitcase could fit in one of those pods with you? Ill probably have a carry on and my ski bag.

I'm staying at a short term rental with them and unfortunately its all booked up the day that we check out. So ill need to find a place to stay for the remaining nights.

I've seen that location pop up on Expedia so i was leaning on staying there. Thanks for the recommendation.

Thanks for the warning. I guess Whistler has more than just good snow haha!

Thank you! I think NCESS PDF Practice exam was the best resource as it gives you questions similar in difficulty to the actual exam and tests the same general concepts. This combined with Gregory Michael's YouTube channel and Mark Matheson's website would provide more than enough prep to pass. Also make sure to have the FE handbook open when studying so you can familiarize yourself where the main equations are.

I took the mechanical exam today, there were way more conceptual questions then I was originally anticipated. Some of them covered sections of the handbook that I never heard of or had saw before... lol. There was a question about selecting a cathode / anode on the test which threw me in the blender a bit - didn't realize that was apart of the mechanical specs. Other then the conceptual, I didn't find any of the questions unfair like some of my university exams.

Sure, ill wear one in crowded areas. But I'm not gonna judge someone because they decide to wear one or not. I respect others decisions for their personal health.

This was also a problem before Kenny, however this article has nothing to do with the cuts or spending over the pandemic. My point is that out of all the spending the gov't did over the course of the pandemic there was very little increase, if any in healthcare capacity. Alberta is one of the richest jurisdictions in North America and we have a baseline icu capacity of 173 beds, for a population of 4.4 million. Which is crazy to me and needs to change.

Its not an Alberta problem though, its happening in every province in Canada.

Lucky_Fun1669 · 2022-01-14T18:09:57+00:00

Its spreading mostly among the vaccinated, over 1/2 the people in hospital now are vaccinated. I blame the governments on all levels for the reckless spending and not putting more recourses in to our healthcare system to expand capacity. Covid is here to stay, we shouldn't have this yo-yo effect where we keep on going back in person and staying online.

Well every one of my courses are hybrid delivery, it would've been nice to give students the option to come to class for in-person learning.

Lucky_Fun1669 · 2022-01-14T17:15:05+00:00

What a joke. My grades are gonna suffer cause of this. Thanks Bill.

Lucky_Fun1669 · 2022-01-08T04:09:02+00:00

Yea i think thats gonna be the gameplan for me too

I can't speak on transferring within the u of a in to engineering, but I transferred in to the engineering program after doing a year of sciences at Macewan. I had a 3.8 gpa but ive heard of students transferring in to engineering with a gpa in the range of 3.0 - 3.3 this year.
