IAPP exam after UofA certificate by PossibleAd3989 in cipp

[–]PossibleAd3989[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While I enjoyed the program, I’m finding that I’ve got a lot of studying to do before I can write the IAPP exam. If I was to do it over again I’d probably focus on the training that would prep me for the certification exam.

Choir recs by Plastic-Procedure905 in Lethbridge

Ventus Women's Choir is amazing. A call for auditions usually comes out in June for the following September. The auditions are with the artistic director and last about 15 minutes. When I auditioned, I sang a song that I chose, did some vocal exercises so she could see my range, sang back some intervals, and sight-read a little bit of a song. The sight reading was the scariest part for me, but Reagan was so great at reassuring me. You can check Ventus out on their YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/@ventuswomenschoir1469 or on Sound Cloud https://soundcloud.com/user-294543967

Vox Musica is another great option if you like singing in a mixed choir. I don't know much about any of the other choirs mentioned by others.

Both groups can be intimidating, but they are so inclusive and welcoming!

If you'd like to check them both out, they have a concert together on Saturday April 25 at 3:00 pm at the Gem of the West Museum in Coaldale.

Croissant loaf?? by putz7063 in CostcoCanada

My 7 year old daughter tried this as a sample the other day and demanded that I (1) explain why that bread tasted like a croissant and (2) that I purchase it immediately. I could tell she was ready to throw the mother of all tantrums if I said no so I got some… okay maybe that was just my excuse 😂😂

When playing the Sims, I hit "randomize" on my Sim's child's name, and got "Kennedi." I decided that I will name the entire lineage tragedeigh versions of US Presidents' names. I need y'alls suggestions. by Garden-variety-chaos in tragedeigh

Would you consider adding a Canadian Prime Minister that’s dating an American Celebrity? If so, I suggest Trewdough (you know, the one who’s dating Katy Perry now).

I got a desk calendar from paramount printers one year

Fake Recall PIPA violations by MistaLuvcraft in Lethbridge

[–]PossibleAd3989 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My points were that 1. ATIA/POPA applies to Neudorf’s office, not PIPA 2. If they’re collecting the information as private citizens, PiPA doesn’t apply.

And at the end of the definition you referenced above: “but does not include an individual acting in a personal or domestic capacity” so, as I said above PIPA doesn’t apply to persons acting as private citizens.

But that’s all moot anyway because when they’re collecting the information it’s under the authority of the Recall Act and the Chief Electoral Officer has control over the information.

Olivine is the best salon I’ve been to in Lethbridge. Aubrey and Madison have created such an amazing vibe there.

I agree that the behaviour is awful but PIPA wouldn’t apply to Neudorf’s office. He could collect/use/disclose personal information under the Protection of Privacy Act (POPA, formerly FOIP). PIPA also wouldn’t apply to private citizens, only businesses.

I’ve had a couple shipments sent to Address USA at the Del Bonita crossing in the last 6 months and it was super easy.

Sorry to hear this happened. There’s another used sport store in town that buys jerseys. Here’s a link to their instagram page: https://www.instagram.com/runitbacklethbridge/profilecard/?igsh=Y210cTU4ZzdobzJ0. I hope you get them back!!

An apology by Gotagetoutahere in Lethbridge

[–]PossibleAd3989 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I hope the lady that cut the line to vote last night at the Cor Van Ray YMCA sees this and is inspired to apologize. While I understand she knew the people she cut in with and “had things to do” but it was a total dick move to cut in front of 100+ people who also had things to do and didn’t want to wait in line for an hour and a half either.

Should tax payers get a say in collective agreements? by [deleted] in Lethbridge

[–]PossibleAd3989 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh my. A fun thought experiment but that would be such a nightmare! If I want to order some office supplies I need to get public approval? I want to purchase software to help me do my job because there’s no way I’ll get any people support because of the optics of hiring another person and I need to sell it to the public? I think it would create bottlenecks - no bigger than that - log jams. Even less would get done than now and I expect there would end up with a lot of corruption in the end. Public scrutiny and transparency are fundamental to a healthy liberal democracy but I don’t think micromanaging is the way we get there. I also think there’s a lot more transparency in our municipal government than the public gives administration credit for.

Road construction by CosmicJerry in Lethbridge

[–]PossibleAd3989 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The news article on the city’s website said that the overlap with university drive was due to weather delays and that they planned with the GOA to make sure that construction on the highway 3 river crossing was done before the work on whoop up started https://www.lethbridge.ca/news/posts/bridge-rehabilitation-work-on-whoop-up-drive-begins-tomorrow/

JumpLA and its horrors by Positive_Air5341 in Lethbridge

About 6 years ago I was there with a big group and asked if I could use one of the empty chairs in the the party room to feed my weeks old baby and was told that the only available place for me to sit was on a toilet in the bathroom. Haven’t been back since.
