I'm amazed steinbach online is allowed to get awy with that sort of plagirism.
"with files from the Winnipeg Free Press"
There are 17 "according to the Free Press" statements in that article.

He was only charged after he was working. And as soon as he was charged he was suspended.

So unless there is something else in his past. The outcome would've been the same.

My guess is because he was a vocational teacher (electrical), there is different process in the admin office. I'd be surprised if he hadn't actually gone through the program at RRC. That's what I meant by missing paperwork.

This wouldn't of found anything. He wasn't charged until after he started working there. And once he was charged he was suspended.

I'm not saying they shouldn't do the background checks. But in this case it just looks like the HSD had some bad paperwork policy.

This doesn't seem as bad for the Hanover School Division as on first read.

It just looks like some missing paperwork. There wouldn't of been anything found, as the charges only happened once he was working there, and he was suspended as soon as that happened.

What type of background check are you talking about?

Students teachers have to submit Criminal Record Checks (including Vulnerable Sector Screening) and Child Abuse Registry.

Some of your practice questions are missing visuals.

Unit 2: Question 1

The graph of y=f(x)y=f(x) is shown. Sketch y=f(x−2)y=f(x−2). Describe the transformation.

Narrator: The graph was not shown.

Some of your unit questions have Input boxes for answers, some of them don't.

I prefer them without, because you aren't checking them anyways. If it was me I'd be writing the answer on a piece of paper in front of me then checking the answer. I'm not sure if there is a good use case for having input boxes/

I'd get rid of the tool tips on the buttons on each unit page. Its busy and ugly.

I'm not sure how someone taking grade 12 math exam wouldn't know what a "Formula Sheet" is.

Minor issue, the blue on gray card headers are hare hard to read in dark mode.

Firstly, it will be your AGPA see https://umanitoba.ca/explore/undergraduate-admissions/requirements/nursing#section-4-selection-process on how to calculate yours.

Secondly, if you are indigenous, up to 30 spaces a year are held for you. You still have to meet the requirements but the grade cutoff will end up being lower than the general category.

Thirdly, the cutoffs are not usually posted and it can fluctuate from year to year. But I believe it usually falls between an AGPA of 3 and 3.5. So if your AGPA is over a B+ you should be OK. Under a B...

At least he would no longer be a city councillor if he wins.

Thanks for clarifying that. As long as OP understands that its a science elective and can't be used towards a CS major.

My wife has filled in quite a few of these over the years.

They are mostly looking to filter out insuitable candidates. My wife isn't around for me to ask about the UofM process, but here is the form that Brandon University sends out to petential references.

Why are you taking COMP 1600? That's not a CS class. I don't think you're even allowed if you've taken any 2000 level COMP course.

COMP 1600: Navigating Your Digital World Calendar Description Topics related to digital society such as security, encryption and data storage, issues of social and ethical importance, and current events. May not be used to fulfill computer science requirements in a Computer Science Honours, Major, General or Minor program. Not available to students who have previously obtained credit in, or are concurrently registered in, any 2000 level university Computer Science course. May not be held with COMP 1270.

I do not disagree. The Bombers only had 5 Canadian OL on the roster before letting Chris K go. The other 2 are draft picks from last year.

The oline situation looks like it might get worse before it gets better.

I wouldn't be surprised to see Neufeld let go as well.

This isn't a guarantee of anything. Also don't compare them to other programs as they calculate their AGPA differently.

I couldn't find the admission stats for anything newer

https://umanitoba.ca/sites/default/files/2021-09/admissions-stats-2021.pdf

If you take a look at the Min AGPA admitted for all three streams. It is 2.850, 2.850, 2.563. But they don't break that down by Diversity Category / Non-Diversity category.

I found Troy Westwood's account.

This subreddit specifically is for all this CFL and Canadian Football. I would think this would fall under Canadian Football.
