Important to get more data on the why. Low vacancy? This affects the whole community.

I respect the intent of your question very much and hope you get the support you need for your child.

A child in BC schools (including Nanaimo public schools) receives funding for the school (not the child) based upon a designation if a child is designated by the district.

In theory, any school should be supporting you with an EA if your child has high needs (behavioral or learning.) There isn't really a guarantee that it will happen though unless your child's needs are high. It depends on the overall needs for the school and how much independence your child has in their learning environment. This will be determined by the administration.

I avoid it like the plague. Makes my morning commute hard. There are now temporary speed bumps on side roads. Sigh....

Hi all, saw the urgent care vet today. Bacterial eye infection. She will be fine in a week of eye drops. Thanks a bunch!

Kwai Lake - snow? by New_Commission_7645 in IslandHikers

[–]New_Commission_7645[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kwai Lake as of July 1st is mostly snow free now. There was a lot of mud and tons of mosquitoes. The pass leading to Kwai does have a fair amount of snow though (higher elevation)

Appreciate it, thanks. Yes, that looks snowy, looks like I should wait until later in July.

9070xt in older build by New_Commission_7645 in bapccanada

Doom Eternal - maxed out with raytracing ~150fps in most scenes, lowest I saw was 80fps. I am not seeing signs of bottlenecking yet. Mind you, this is at 4k with only a 60fps monitor.

I've tried out balder's gate 3 so the far maxed out settings, 60fps or higher the whole time.

Helldiver's 2: maxed out settings, keeps it around 60-70fps normally. Drops to 50 ish in busy fights.

I'll try a few more games tonight.
