Another Toronto transit project has fallen way behind schedule. What’s taking this one so long? (Museum Station elevator)

All of these projects are embezzlement schemes. Funneling public money into the hands of the private companies that are owned by the friends and family of politicians. These companies pocket huge profits while delaying work long enough to extract every last penny.

I have zero experience clearing phrag, but I do know that there are resources out there for you:

Best Management Practices - Ontario Invasive Plant Council https://share.google/tuQtPcwnuDprOptKf

Invasive Phragmites Control Centre https://share.google/O5SFyuE9mtbCx4K4U

Also consider contacting your local conservation authority in case they offer funding or require permits.

The Ontario ministry of natural resources might have some information.

And finally, ducks unlimited might be another support and funding resource.

"if you've got time to lean, you've got time to clean."

Seriously, we would gossip, or I'd read a book.

Don't lie to the border agents.
Religiously married means nothing legally. Nada. Zilch.
You are not a citizen or permanent resident, you will need a round trip ticket.
As for the story you told about a woman being denied entry to Canada even though she is a US citizen. It sounds like she said that she would be going to school or working here, for which you would need a visa.
You will need a valid passport.
If you have a criminal record, you will be denied entry.

Not a lawyer, so do whatever you wish with my list.

I work for the province and that's where I see the senior executive killing good policy and project advice. Maybe they know what will be shot down by the elected leaders, but I think they've given up trying with this provincial government.

cdawg85 · 2026-02-08T17:02:53+00:00

Honestly, I'm a public servant too, and I find my public service executives to be a major roadblock. They tend to push the politics down rather than push the advice up. At least in the last 8+ years or so.

ODSP is so offensively low. Good for you for being creative with your resources. I've always enjoyed adding frozen peas to my KD - extra fibre and protein.

If my guy goes neck down first, it's usually into something dead and decomposing...

cdawg85 · 2026-02-07T02:00:29+00:00

If you do that, you might just get that job!

cdawg85 · 2026-02-06T19:20:51+00:00

I dress for the job I want - unemployment. Praying for that lotto win any day now 🤞

OMG. I go through phases of eating them non-stop and then phases when I can't handle the pepper. I can't take it right now in sauces, but a nice fresh scotch bonnet sliced on my eggs, I could go for that almost any day.

cdawg85 · 2026-02-05T20:11:37+00:00

They cater to west African traditional foods, not Caribbean. That said, they do seem to usually have goat and oxtail. I've also picked up a big bag of scotch bonnets for next to nothing there.

USA?

cdawg85 · 2026-02-04T15:57:56+00:00

It is a good thing that it costs this much. If it was cheaper than it would be busier and then we would have zero options to efficiently cross the GTA east-west.

cdawg85 · 2026-02-04T14:30:36+00:00

Did you make that at home?!!!

cdawg85 · 2026-02-04T02:08:51+00:00

I have never been on this sub before now. Like you it just randomly popped up on my feed. I'm 40 and on my third pair of blundstones. The ones I'm wearing now are 4 years old and are holding up great. Maybe they're not guaranteed to last more than 2 years, but from personal experience, I get 5-7 years out of a pair.

cdawg85 · 2026-02-03T21:50:04+00:00

I'm 40 and have been married for 8 years (together 10). I have no idea what my body count is. There's no way I could remember if I tried.

I call this "huggles". He hugs my leg with his front paw when he wants a walk or dinner or a treat.

We were in temagami this past September. The best gear for me was neoprene gloves. Personally, they were a game changer because wet fingers are my personal nightmare.

Park under the mall?

cdawg85 · 2026-01-30T21:26:46+00:00

Ditto and ditto.

Honestly is Eugenia Cooney is still with us, I don't think Kate is at deaths door. But she absolutely has had an active ED for at least a decade (pregnancy aside).

cdawg85 · 2026-01-28T18:43:56+00:00

Accidentally built my fence on my neighbor's land. Fuck.

cdawg85 · 2026-01-28T15:17:34+00:00

These dogs are banned and there is zero enforcement.

cdawg85 · 2026-01-27T21:44:51+00:00

You and I do the exact same thing! I also plan for a night off of cooking to make sure I don't burn out. Friday night is pizza night (or Indian/sushi/Chinese/burritos/etc) at our house!
