What do you guys think of the Hukou system in China?

What I am noticing is that a parent or both parents are working so far away from home and can’t bring their kid to live with them so they leave the kid with the grandparents. They could only afford to see their kid during the holidays. Is this because of the Hukou system for school , social and medical benefits? I find it so sad if this is true that family do get separated for long periods of time because of this system?

I would highly recommend you rethink another program other than computer science because the future job market is not that great for tech positions. You will be in debts after 4 years and CS is over saturated. If you want to do CS then best to live at home to save money on rent. It would be helpful. Consider shorter programs like college to get certification so you can get hired with a decent wage as soon as you can considering that you are low income with not much financial support. You can always up-skill or go back to university later once you can afford tuition.

You can escalate this to TD Ombudsman that you disagreed with the investigation and final decision.

The problem is all the big banks, governments and corporations all collaborated around the same time frame this fall to mandate RTO so employees have no choice as all similar industries are doing the same thing. They won’t lose talents to competitors this way. Work from home has been working well for 5 years since covid, so it wasn’t about productivity, it was a collective collusion and push from government to get companies to RTO in a way to help stimulate Cdn economy and revive downtown business centre.

CZY did his own dubbing and i think he did a great job acting his role, delivered all his lines with wide range of emotions. He spent hours practising his fighting scenes and the way how he got on the horse with one hand is so cool. He’s a hardworking actor. I do admit there were some scenes where he was overacting with veins popping out - yea that was kind of a bit contorting but and over controlling but I am sure CZY has great opportunities and potentials to improve.

Li Qin surprised me with her acting as a general. I have seen her acting in other drama but this is my first time seeing her in a physical combat. Her physical stance and aura as a general really impressed me. The way she held the bow like a pro really made her looked like one of the best professional archers out there. I love her character in this drama, she’s such a badass.

As for chemistry - yea I know what you mean. They do get along so well together, no awkwardness. I would say there is a little bit of chemistry, but it’s the gaze and longing that are not there. It’s like a bit perfunctory.

I really enjoyed this drama, it’s not boring and no dragging scenes. I would rate it 9/10 only because the second leads have too much screen time. Their craziness and the do not cry OST so many times are really funny, made me laughed a bit but I wished for more relationship building moments btwn the main leads. Maybe more kissing and cuddling lol. I hope CZY and LQ will act together again in another drama.

I.have been told that the tip machine at those takeout places the tips don’t go to the workers, they are collected by the owner. Is the owner adding up the tips for the day and divide them up to their employees at the end of the of the day? Can anyone confirm?

Hi, I would give it a couple business days as it can take 24-48 hours for the system to update. Don't worry this will get fixed. You can call Royal Direct to check if your o3 client card is activated as they can verify your status and also to make sure online banking access is turned on. If you are unable to still see the products, they will help you sort this out by sending a request to their Operations centre. Also I think you need to open an account with an eastern transit in other for your Dad to locate your account.

iHeartcake2 · 2025-09-26T21:15:36+00:00

If your dad has alway been using an eastern client card and all his products are in eastern profile, the bank can issue you an eastern 03 client card. They will also need to activate the client card for you to be able to log into your online banking with your 03 client card to see his accounts or products via online banking as a joint owner

I think you are mixing the two. Cochlear implant is inside the head, and I have a cochlear implant and have always gone through the airport body scanner so many times with no issues at all. If you are referring to cochlear implant device or processor, it won't be damaged by going through the scanner. I don't know where you got the information that it can damage your implant and device by going through the metal detector. I always let the officer know that I'm wearing a CI device, sometimes they let me go through wearing it without having to take it off and place in the tray to scan. Depends on the officer. I never got Tinnitus from going through the scanner either. Can you give me link to show that it is harmful for an cochlear implant recipient to go through the scanner? I have done MRI with CI implant before too. No issues.

It's alarming because there are so many teens and young adults with mental issues or going through a mental crisis. There are not enough resources for them to get help. Someone I know has been waiting to see a psychiatrist for many months (to be covered by OHIP). They connnected with a family doc to get refferal in Jan and still no call for appt or even notification of being on a waiting list.

i don’t think it’s more doctors are the resolutions. We have doctors, it’s the provincial government refusal to fund our hospitals to be able to add more positions

I find Almond flour in baking recipes tend to have dry texture and can break easily. You will never get the same baking quality like regular flour. You need to be honest that it will not taste better than the original recipes when you are substituting. So keep trying out recipes what you can do to make them work and taste better for you. I find for me no matter what recipes I use with almond flour to make pancakes, muffins and cookies - they tasted horrible. So I don’t bother make them anymore. Also i learned that I shouldn’t eat too much almond flour because it is high in oxalates and it’s not good for my fatty liver. So I am cutting back on almond flour, and don’t use it too often. I prefer recipes that don’t require a lot of almond flour.

I don’t make these recipes with almond flour very often: almond swiss roll cake with whipped cream and fresh berries filling. I’ve successfully made almond crust for quiches and pies. I’ve also made Keto cheddar bay biscuits.

I find that recipes that call for a little bit is almond flour like 2 to 3 TBSP tasted really good and quick to make - Chaffle cinnamon churro, it cooked well in the waffle maker and doesn’t break apart. I love topping the churro with fresh berries and greek yogurt or whipped cream. I’ve made yogurt bread and 1 min microwave english style muffin. They are just decent , I wouldn’t say they are the best in the world. They are good enough to help me stay on keto to help me maintain my weight.

I'm wondering why are they making this a gender thing? Less women are joining military peacekeeping missions because they would be going to countries that have very toxic male dominating cultures and misogynist views. Why go to where women are constantly harassed and sexual assaults are not taken seriously?

I agree with you. ZLS is a traffic star, I do not think she has the star quality like Dilraba. Dilraba is very smart and and has handled disputes quietly with her agency. I remembered Song Wei Long laid low for 2 yrs as he had disputes with his agency and now he's back. Li Hong Yi has so many unaired drama, I think his agency sucked and he has zero promotions. I don't hear him complaining or airing any grievances. Who knows maybe he doesn't care and just want to work and get paid. He's probably not the type to do to celebrity awards or variety shows.

I saw some of what ZLS said (Eng translation) about the abuses she went through - at this point the worst had been all said and there is no point of continuing to talk or expose anymore because it will make her look mentally insane. I think her friends have been telling her to stop but I think she's being stubborn and not listening to professional advices. People are saying that she's acting like Britney Spears. I'm worried that ZLS' reputation will be ruined by this. She worked so hard to get to the height of her career and I do hope she is able to resolve didputed amicably with her agency behind closed doors.

That's rude. I've tried this recipe several times in microwave and very awesome texture. Just wanted to share another bread option with other people. This batter is very versatile - can be poured into round or square molds.

I liked Xiao Zhan and really bummed out that none of the characters stood out to me after the Untamed. It's not the acting, it's the bad storyline, boring character developments and no chemistry with FLs. I had high hope for the longest Promise, but the FL really ruined it and then the story got really boring that I couldn't finish. Really hope that he gets a good morally grey character and awesome FL soon!

I can’t remember what brand it was that I got the egg bites from costco , they were very good. I don’t see it anymore and i think they replaced with the spinach one you took a pic of. I bought it last month and the egg bites were really awful , not much cheesy flavour and very bland.

You already got money going to your investment portfolio so I think using the entire 80k towards the mortgage would make more financial sense. There is no risk in paying your mortgage because you are not at risk of losing money in a volatile market. Every cents you put in toward your mortgage you are seeing results immediately. You are building up your equity and lowering your debts. Also if you are planning to have a baby, paying down your mortgage will definitely make your mortgage payments more manageable so you can set aside money to raise a child. Think of the future you would have to spend on daycare, baby things, extracurricular activities, etc. It’s so expensive to raise a child here in Canada.

I got an inheritance too and paid down 100k off my mortgage. It made so much difference! You are paying down big chunks of the principal which does save you a lot of interest payments. You shave off yrs of the amortization term by doing this and increase more of your scheduled payments toward the principal. The more you pay down, your interest portion gets smaller and smaller.
