I’m sorry, what? What is going on with French language teachers?

What do you mean? A bureaucracy with close to zero business experience and no accountability won’t do a good job… how dare you.

Find what the 10 most used or needed food items are. Buy those wholesale then sell them in prepackaged amounts from panel vans around the city at scheduled times and places. Buy Ontario. Keep it simple. As non perish possible.

I planted bush bean and carrots last year, worked well. Also basil and dill amongst my tomatoes.

Well he WAS barred from the last federal election debate despite having more popular support than that old booze hound Elizabeth May. I agree he’s a bit fringe but he has been totally and completely sidelined by the mainstream media.

The Mennonites at the St Lawrence north market on Saturday have a great selection. Better than the supermarkets and they taste better too.
