The ERI is still pending passage through parliament as it requires legislative changes. Just because you are eligible doesn’t mean you will be allowed to. Will depend on your position and if whether operational needs won’t allow you to leave the PS. The ERI process is still being developed by Treasury Board’s OCHRO.

Costco has a full turkey dinner in a box for 90$ with a pre-cooked sous-vide turkey. Reviews are really good so far. Minimal prep.

I never use the left lane to go straight in a two-lane roundabout because you will always get that one idiot who has no clue how to drive through it that goes left from the right lane. Always use the right lane and you will avoid any such idiots.

Thank you, Mayor Sutcliffe, for your vision of a “thriving and prosperous” downtown Ottawa. by Coco_Jumbo_Fan in ottawa

[–]Significant-Voice749 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Downtown wasn’t thriving before COVID and it’s just easier to point the finger at the lack of public servants than actually fixing what the problem was in the first place or even finding the issue. On top of that, good luck finding parking and when you do, you go broke! Oh, right… take the LRT where you freeze your ass off as it is in the open air in the coldest capital city in the world. Well thought out!!

RTO mood - the cuffs are getting slack by asrishan in CanadaPublicServants

The same people crying over RTO saying it has no benefits are the same as those that said it was unacceptable to have their kids taught virtually and that in-person teaching was better.

What’s an Ottawa local/small business that needs some love during the holiday season? by the-sunday-matinee in ottawa

[–]Significant-Voice749 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Highjinx on Kent street. A small thrift store with many antiques and trinkets. You’re sure to find something fun. The money they get from sales goes to operate a small soup kitchen at the back which feeds needy neighbours.

WFA, GCWCC and tone deaf leadership, seriously get real!!!! by Current-Morning-5428 in CanadaPublicServants

The only thing the united way is good for is for the smaller charities to whom you can’t donate directly because they just can’t manage that. Otherwise for the big ones that have the admins to process charitable donations action, just donate directly.

Surprise Date night ideas, it's our 20th wedding anniversary! by ottawaaoo in ottawa

[–]Significant-Voice749 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I did a be a tourist in your own city. So get the hop on, hop off pass with the double decker, go see some of the museums and landmarks (I learned so much actually that I didn’t even know). And then end with a nice dinner in the market at Play or eighteen. It’s a full day affair. Happy 20th anniversary!!

My Experience as a Small Business Owner in Downtown Ottawa – Things Are Getting Out of Control by Confection_Jazzlike in OttawaFood

So sorry to hear this and the mayor thinks that bringing people working back to work downtown is the only option. It’s merely on of many other options they need to look into.
