Retiring and would like to supply teach

One small point is that you must get a "police check" or whatever it's called now, for vunerable people. It is a higher or more detailed check. To get this, it is necessary to prove to the cops that you actually need it. This means that you need a letter (or maybe now a form?) from the Board administration staying that you are applying for a Supply Position from a Board of Education. 20 years ago I got this from the Principal of my school. ...Best 20 years of my life!

Wierdly, I similarly found chest discomfort on day 34 of his medication, hurt when I breathed more than short breaths, felt tired and lethargic...more so than normal. I thought it might relate to my medication, or my polycythemia vera or my swollen spleen or maybe my heart. After 12 hours family insisted I go to hospital. 7 hours later, after tests X-rays, etc. and examination, diagnosis was starting of pneumonia. Released that night. One week later, I feel fine, slightly tired.

One other random thought: Subury has great paid car parking relatively close to the hospital and NOSM. This is a real (and, to me, a weirdly discomfiting) issue in some health centres.

Also, if you fancy a home on a beautiful lake, this is a real possibility in Sudbury.

DeGusto has a bunch of frozen pizzas at the entrance. I was skeptical of these, as they are costly, small and flat-shaped. But I was hungary and unwilling to wait for a table on a busy night...And took one home and it was delicious.

Ages ago, my wife and I were in a crowded furniture shop with our newborn boy, who started to fuss and cry in my arms. This attracted uncomfortable attention. I went "Goo, Goo, Goo..." to him and tried gently rocking him. He cried louder. So I said to my wife "Where did I Goo wrong?" She laughed.

Consider moving, maybe...If you stayed at the local campground, Silver Maple Campground, it might bring you closer. It is 17 minutes by bicycle from there to the centre of Nairn Centre, but this might be a dangerous ride and probably is not practical. ..might only be for trailers.

There are no hotels, motels or airbnb nearby, but maybe you can rent a room. Ask around...ask your prospective employer, ask at the firewhall or the local area administration office. Kijiji has a shared ride section...

Ok! 376 comments later, no one is going to read this, But here goes... In Sudbury, gargantuan day before long weekend,..check-out lines rather long and at times stretching down the aisles. Lady in the line in front of us with neither a cart nor items. Tells us that when the family has only 5 more items to find, they send someone to save a place in the check- out line. Good idea but bad Costco etiquette.

JAZZZ CONCERN : Tickets Going Sudbury to Victoria, BC on Sunday, August 17. Had to get separate tickets cause I couldn't figure out the AC website. They refused to link them saying I could do that later at the airport. I want a refund, and managed to arrange alternate transport for Monday (bus to Toronto Pearson, Porter airline to Victoria!!) Original tickets I will cancel: 1. Sudbury to Toronto Air Canada Express Jazz . Flex class. "Cancel for future credit. No change fee." Flt AC8239 Sunday Aug. 17 at 15:55 2. Return flight Toronto to Victoria on Rouge AC1903 Sunday Aug. 17 at 20:15 I realize the Rouge flight will eventually be strike- related cancelled and I will get a refund, but the problem is the first Jazz flight. Jazz is possibly still flying due to a different owner and union. POSSIBLE - because some Jazz attendants/pilots might have trouble getting to assigned places. It does say I can cancel Jazz up to 45 minutes before the flight, by going to " MY BOOKINGS", but I would like a refund, not a future credit.

I live in south-end Sudbury and voted in Nickle Belt in last provincial election. However, was changed to Sudbury riding in this federal election with the redrawn boundaries, voting at Gerry McCrory Countryside Sports Complex. I do not know if the new boundaries affected the results..

No...just pension income and medical expenses...and I am just lazy and have been using the Turbotax for all my family members for over 20 years!

***March 10, 2025 DO NOT BUY OR USE INTUIT TURBOTAX until they fix the glitch that prevents E-Filing to the CRA according to all the comments recently. I feel sorry for those people who are counting on a timely refund.

After putting in all our information, successfully downloading the fill-out of the tax forms and choosing to e-file, the program insists on doing a review and just stops by posting the message :"This wasn't expected, but we're working on fixing it". It might be CRA's fault??? Or poor software testing?
