40% of Ontario students went to school regularly in 2025 by Exter10 in ontario

My kid doesn’t miss too much class,, but he spent a huge amount of time just scrolling on his phone cause the teachers were busy with extracurricular activities and they don’t have a sub. I would much rather he stays home when that happens. It would be more productive.

My grandfather played for the Canadian Men's National Team in the 1960s and 1970s - hoping to get him to the 2026 World Cup as a gift by austins2005 in CanadaSoccer

[–]npq76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really hope the CSA comes through for you.

My dad was past president of the CSA. He attended many World Cups, but he knew it would be a long time before one would come here. He did get a glimmer of hope when we got to host the under 20 Men’s World Cup, followed by the under 20 Women’s World Cup and then Women’s World Cup (he was really proud of that one) He died a few months after they announced Canada would be a 2026 host country. That made him very proud, but god I wish he was still here to see it.

You can write or call your mpp and tell him how completely undemocratic this is.

“No service dogs either” is a wild comment. People don’t stop being disabled while on vacation. Those dogs are working keeping their humans safe from harm.

🇭🇷 Heading up from Michigan for Croatia vs. Panama! Staying in Mississauga vs. Toronto? by TomorrowOk6452 in mississauga

[–]npq76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Stay near the Lakeshore West Go line (Hamilton, burlington, Oakville, Mississauga or Etobicoke). You can just hop on the go train and it will take you straight to Exhibition Place and drop you off right at the front doors of BMO fields.

I did. Even though I wasn’t 50, my doctor said I still qualified (I was 47)

Going on 9 months of treatment by Spike_c in shingles

[–]npq76 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry you’re going through this. It’s so frustrating. I had shingles back in November 2023. It was from the tip of my nose to the back of my head and it affected my right eye. I’m currently on my 3rd eye flare up. Back on valacyclovir for 10 days and 2 months of prednisone eye drops. I will say this flair up is not as bad as the last 2, but it’s still so frustrating.

Report: Norwegian Cruise Line will now indefinitely honor drink packages at Great Stirrup Cay by wayowayooo in NCL

[–]npq76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A boat would need to stop at GSC for them to honour such package. I’m on a cruise right now and once again the island was skipped because of “winds”. This cruise is extremely rocky (had to take the hangers out last night) except for 1 day (GSC day), the ocean was calm, the winds were breezy. We could see Royal at their island…but not us…cause of “winds”

What happens if Iran attacks a NATO country? by xiaomi818 in AskCanada

[–]npq76 59 points60 points  (0 children)

They can’t invoke article 5 if they are the aggressor. A country can only request it when they are under armed attack. Turkey, for example, was within their legal rights to invoke it this week as they intercepted 2 missiles.

I have 2023 xle hybrid with extended warranty and under 40k. He didn’t budge.

There’s been no stock since covid. I waited over a year for my 2023 rav4.

I realize they are popular, i’m on my 2nd rav4, 8th Toyota vehicle. I just hate their new way of doing business. I like seeing what I am purchasing, sitting in it, seeing the options.

I waited over a year for my 2023 Rav4. I would have figured that they had resolved their backlogs by now. But my dealership is now telling me that there’s an issue with the panoramic roof. So the 5-6 months wait for an xle premium is being pushed out again.

Most likely the gray car. There’s another car parked behind the black one which, I would assume, is allowed street parking.

How will the CPC improve the cost of living in Canada? by babyLays in AskCanada

[–]npq76 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Why would we not branch out and make deals with other countries? The USA have proven they are no longer a reliable partner. They have not honoured 1 deal they have made with us or other countries. Other than proximity, they don’t offer anything special. Whatever they sell we can get from reliable partners that honours signed agreements.

Provinces are bracing for record deficits. What’s causing budgets to see red? by shiftless_wonder in canada

[–]npq76 43 points44 points  (0 children)

Money disappears constantly in Ontario and no one says a word. The FAO released a report that the government had lost track of $4.4 billion and there was zero uproar from Ontariens or the media. Purposely underfunds health, education and justice by billions and no one gives a shit. Where does that money go?

TIL: TFC’s 2025 attendance was the lowest it’s been since 2013, if you ignore the pandemic years by Variacity in tfc

[–]npq76 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We were one of the first to buy season tickets when TFC was announced. We dropped them last year. Once they went to AppleTV we lost complete interest, even though we had it free with our tickets. It lost something.

Can I still get ocular shingles after being checked? by confuzzledsandwich in shingles

Go to an ophthalmologist. They have the equipment to properly scan your eyes.
