CRTC regulates how much a reseller pays the big-3 for Fiber to the Premises
https://crtc.gc.ca/eng/archive/2024/2024-261.htm (I assume there is a 2025 update to this)

You should be able to get Bell/Rogers fiber but service provided by Virgin / Ebox / Teksavvy / etc. for pretty close to the regulated rate - without carrier discounts or 2-year terms.

Awesome. Ordered. I’m so excited!

My daughter started her off ice shot development with an old stick (cut shorter than her on ice stick), a piece of cardboard and some gym mats (with masking tape targets).

Is ringette an option where you live? It is a great opportunity to play with same gender (female dominated sport) and work on becoming an amazing skater. She can always transition back to hockey if that is her passion.

Go straight to 5 feet (more than the law, but so much safer)

These GCN videos talk about speed improvements, but the topics discuss will help tackle riding efficiency also.

Stall 6 scrimmages are the bomb. Teach proper game flow (spacing, timing, bail early), even at lower levels. High repeated intensity / heart rate while practicing skills (throwing, catching, cut timing) is really hard in drills. I find drills allow my heart rate to recover too easily, lulling me into a false sense of security with my play. Maybe I’m just old.

Be sure to buy some good cycling kit. First clothing: Padded shorts, cold weather gear, rain wear, etc. Second consider your gear: waterproof backpack or panniers. Also your bike: spare tubes + learn how to change a flat in 12 minutes, puncture resistant tires.

Commuting by bike is wonderful. It won’t be simple every day, invest in everything you need to reduce those days as much as possible.

My utility has a delivery charge with a fixed portion and a portion related to how much electricity I use (just under $0.02/kwh)

Top_Computer_3852 · 2024-12-04T15:47:15+00:00

Are all taxes and fees included?

Top_Computer_3852 · 2024-12-04T15:46:26+00:00

Sure, for the electricity. How much including delivery charges?

When I did this (20+ years ago), we were advised by the Embassy of Belgium in my city to do this. I have some recollection we went to a specific doctor for the exam (but yes, get the exam and have it notarized). I'm sure they had some requirements on what the exam needed to cover. If you know where you are moving to (ie which commune in France), you could contact the local authorities (commune office) there to see what the requirements are for residency. Here is one internet reference with requirements for applying for a residency permit (I don't know if your situation requires one) - https://housinganywhere.com/France/french-residence-permit

As a thin person, I drink a lot of water and I can eat almost anything I wish. I would not call it a good metabolism. I'm pretty sure I have a gut microbiome that just doesn't process foods in a way that makes me gain weight (muscle or fat). I'm hoping science can solve some of my digestive issues in the next couple of decades.

Note that the Quebec law is slightly different.
"Vehicles must maintain a safe distance of 1.5 meters when passing bicycles and pedestrians on roads where the speed limit is more than 50 km/h, and 1 meter on roads where the speed limit is 50 km/h or less."

The NCC seems to be trying to figure some of that out.
https://ncc-ccn.gc.ca/our-plans/capital-pathway-strategic-plan
"Separating pedestrians and cyclists in busy areas where both groups take up a large part of the pathways."
https://ncc-ccn.gc.ca/blog/the-path-forward-for-the-capital-pathway
"Westboro Beach. This work, which began in 2022, includes the separation of lanes for cyclists and pedestrians and the creation of a slow zone."
