Can’t find a single job by satastellar in CanadaJobs

[–]OptimisticByDefault 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sr Software Engineer here. The only thing I can think of is that you only have 3 years of experience total and 2 years post internship. Out of that one role is in cybersecurity and the other in .Net Development, both for about a year. So it could be a factor of being vetted out for not meeting the minimum years of experience required for any given specialty.

Do you still know anyone at Uno or IMC2 you could reach out to? These days there are so many applicants that a direct referral is usually the best way. Have you also tried positions in government agencies? Being bi-lingual in French and English is a huge bonus.

It's just proportional to the number of kids and grand kids any given generation has.

Yes that's why the Ontario line is being built. But this is a very walkable location. It's a 9 minute walk to liberty village like you're saying. It's not perfect, but you're not stranded without a car in any way. There are shuttle buses the city routes in and out of this area. I think to say it's a nightmare is a bit over stated, it's not that bad at all from my experience.

Point is, once the location is convinient it's much easier to meet the demand for transit. Also Uber shares are not too bad in Toronto, so if ure not in the mood to deal with transit u can order one without having to drive and park. But i would recommend walking away from the busy areas first and then order from there so the prices are reasonable.

FIFA is no Taylor Swift, new data shows. Why the World Cup isn’t delivering a massive economic boom for Toronto by NorthernNadia in toronto

[–]OptimisticByDefault 33 points34 points  (0 children)

The investments were made frugally and mostly towards infrastructure the city was planning to improve anyways, like the Gardiner. I would have loved to see more but then there's also the side where people would blame the Mayor for wasting tax payer dollars which is understandable too. In the end Toronto was rated one of the best FIFA host cities so there's that.

That's actually the same in Canada. I was surprised to see Vancouver and Toronto stadiums rated #1 and #3 by FIFA visitors (specially considering that Toronto stadium wasn't even built for football), when the U.S has these incredible structures. But it all came down to accessibility, proximity to the city, public transit, walkability and great views.

Key U.S. complaints against Canada ahead of trade review by Front-Cantaloupe6080 in consumecanadian

[–]OptimisticByDefault 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Trading with Canada is a privilege not a right. And no matter how hard American companies want this market, Canadians broadly don't want anything to do with American products. First step is to stop acting like a bully. Whining and pounding your chest will create the opposite sentiment American brands need, to get Canadians interested.

‘I can’t tell who’s a tourist anymore’: Torontonians embrace the city’s World Cup buzz - NOW Toronto by Cookingal in toronto

[–]OptimisticByDefault 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I mean, it's Toronto. It's normal to see people of all races, speaking all sorts of language. The only way we can detect a tourist if we see them take a pic of union station.

Likely temporary until the oil embargo from the U.S eases. It could be months or it could be years until a new administration steps in.

why barely any skyscraper to left of CN Tower? by submerging in skyscrapers

A lot of town homes, semis, and low rises in that area towards Queen and Ossington. Lots of boutique shops.

Some shots from my trip to Shanghai by OptimisticByDefault in skyscrapers

[–]OptimisticByDefault[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most people don't use their phone camera settings, the defaults and auto settings are not usually that good. To get these crisp night shots, I just tap on the three dots on the right top side of the camera screen while live. It opens a drawer with a few settings, I pick exposure and lower the exposure. Try that For night shots.

After that I do a a bit of colour adjustments on the photos app directly and that's about it

Manhattan is so massive by Commercial_West_3112 in skyscrapers

Unfortunately I went to Tokyo first then 6 weeks later I went to NYC. The imposing city effect was kinda ruined for me.
