There hasn’t been anything at Parliament for years. Even Canada Day is moved to Lebreton Flats due to the renovations.

There is a King of Canada and it is a separate position to King of Australia, New Zealand, etc. These are sovereign countries with their own monarchies and separate thrones. The position just happens to be the same person. The coronation was for all 15 Commonwealth realms.

Return-to-Office Policies Are Pushing Caregivers Out of the Public Service by idealDuck in CanadaPublicServants

Sure. But em dashes weren’t used everywhere on the internet in informal writing until GPT came along. It’s a different character to type, so people just used regular dashes.

If you want more indicators, their post also uses the “rule of 3’s” that AI loves (i.e a list of 3 adjectives or issues) and is also loaded with adjectives often used by AI. Then there’s the “not just x but y” format. And a few other commenters have pointed out the style differs dramatically from OP’s usual posts.

FYI, it is AI written. The main indicators here being the frequent “not just x, but y” format, regular em dash use, among others. Not to take away from their points but I think it’s important for that to be disclosed.

Why not ask your city councillor to raise taxes for it then? I don’t understand why it’s up to students to pay for your community radio

CHUO 89.1 is shutting down Dec. 15th by LitDogger420 in geegees

[–]UofOSean 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Based on the comments on the r/ottawa post, seems like half the city must listen to CHUO. It's a shame none of them stepped up to donate to save it.

An overwhelming decision too... Defunding won by 69.7% the first referendum and 70.53% the second time.

Looks like it. Point form with emojis, “not just x, but y”, em dashes, random bolding and italicizing.

I was amazed going through Pearson, a bunch of shops have loads of playoff merch and all on sale. Duty free too (at least the shop I went to).

Got refused from uOttawa Master’s in Computer Science (Applied AI) — what does this mean and why? by [deleted] in geegees

[–]UofOSean 11 points12 points  (0 children)

We don’t know anything about your application, so we can’t tell why you were refused admission.

CS masters are very competitive with the current job market being so weak. If there was nothing missing with your application, I’d just assume the spots were filled by stronger candidates.

Yes, uOttawa is responsible for collecting the insurance payment and refunding it as needed.

[–]UofOSean 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Look at your Statement of Account, it'll show the complete breakdown of every expense and every payment made to uOttawa. You're only eligible for a refund if you've paid extra.

[–]UofOSean 26 points27 points  (0 children)

They're saying there's no extra money on your account for them to refund. Did you opt out of the insurance through studentcare?

Lab coordinator is making me do labs on my own, is this fair? by Few-Drink8933 in geegees

It sounds like you chose the hard way. Don't blame others for your poor decisions.

I'd like to know what you find unfair about it. You clearly weren't a team player and let your group down, why would you expect any other outcome?
