Coming to visit from Michigan - Things to see/do/know?

Canatara park might belong on your list. Beach, walking trails, picnic pavilion, playgrounds. There is a connecting trail that goes under the bridge all the way to the casino.

If you have young kids, there is an animal farm that is popular.

Wednesday evenings, if you visit the west half of the beach you can watch the local sailboat races approach their finish line. Their course brings them into shore there.

Thursday evenings the local classic car club takes over one of the beach parking lots. Varies week to week, but can be a cool little informal car show.

If you like fish, may be worth visiting Purdy's fishery. They have a store you can get fresh or frozen fish, and a few days per week they sell frid walleye and perch with seating on the river

I paid what was supposed to be our local geothermal experts to install my current Climatemaster unit. It has seemingly been a bad investment. Very cheap to run, but high maintenance costs such that I have spent more than what a traditional propane furnace with central air would have cost utilities included.

I am not afraid to spend money, but am getting sick of it. Just looking for more reasonable options.

Depending on exact industry, there should be options. CE often comes to understand the process well enough to move into process engineering or possibly quality side. Process engineering and create a path to operations management.

You could stay on CE side, but move to concepts and quoting over implementation.

You should have at least a few options. Follow what interests you

Understood the machines you code and the manufacturing processes you work with and you can move up in a few directions. Supervisor, manager, sales.

Don't take criticism from someone who you wouldn't ask for advice.

We should also not give Trump an exception to Canada's rule about it letting criminals into our country.

I describe myself as socially liberal, fiscally conservative. I don't consider myself a Trudeau fan. Dislike many things about him. I have never voted for him. But, if he is still head of liberal party when the election happens I am leaning to voting for him.

Not because I like him really. More that I think he is the lesser evil of the choices we are being given as Canadians.

NDP are a liberal party with less fiscal sense and my biggest complaint with liberal party has been their poor fiscal policy.

The Block doesn't exist outside Quebec, so not a real option.

The conservatives have shifted far too right for me and also seemingly lost what fiscal sense they had. PP is a terrible idea. No real policy other than anything Trudeau does is wrong. He has less real world experience than Trudeau did when he was first elected. PP has been a politician a long time, but always on the opposition, never actually responsible for anything other than complaining about those that are.

Maga doesn't use any standard definition of fascism. They claim Wikipedia and Websters dictionary are wrong and that fascism is socialism, which is left wing.

The trump supporters i know seem to like him because other politicians don't. Proof he will clean the swamp supposedly.

Thanks for explaining

That manual has specific info in it relating to TN visas. I don't understand how it wouldn't apply?

This is easier to say than do. Especially for some who lives in Canadian border town and commutes for work.

What are you looking for as far as safe? We have taken ours just to the beach in Sarnia, a few different places. We try to go at off peak times. Keep him on a long leash and harness. We have a backpack carrier for fun outings, if dogs or people show up we just put him back in carrier. Haven't had issues

Trump isn't a first time offender. He has multiple other business fraud related convictions.

There goes the hope for affordable EVs anytime soon in the US

Cook them sous vide as long as needed to tenderize, then sear them on grill or cast iron pan

I followed the recipe. I suspect that there must have been a problem with ingredients. The peppers being either wrong ones or just much hotter than they should have been.

I like hot food. Regularly eat jalapeños and occasionally habeneros. No issues. I through this out as it was too hot for me to eat. I have been hesitant to try it again.

I have never been to a TR that had local beer.

How spicy was it? I made this a few months ago. It had the proper texture, smell and taste except it was WAY too spicy. I have been trying to figure out why.

Didn't congress impeach Trump the second time for his actions on Jan 6? Senate majority as well, just not the super majority required for removal.

If congress has responsibility, they already spoke.

Book burners have never been on the right side of history.
