Electricity generation in Canada 🇨🇦- I’m a little disappointed 23% is still coming from fossil fuels. Data here: www150.statcan.gc.ca/t1/tbl1/en/t...

Good laugh this morning at the “ask your fishmonger”point in the @washingtonpost.com clip in the Ottawa Citizen. Oh sure, fishmongers are part of the real life of Canadians in this time of an affordability crisis.
If you would like the salmon skin removed, ask your fishmonger monger.

Wonderful! Way to go Laine. We just spent time in London and Pais and really enjoyed using the city commuter bikes to explore. The apps made it easy. So many people were using them, even in the rain!

If you’re a US citizen in a professional role (university degree), and you can find an employer willing to make you a job offer, you can qualify under the CUSMA agreement for a visa at the border

Lovely! So regal. I’m visiting and one of the gorgeous cats here took advantage of boot-tying to get some petting.

Interesting that Canada is also delayed vs other years but just slipped past 2022-23. I think our vax rates are higher, it’s definitely not as extreme here. health-infobase.canada.ca/respiratory-...

I find this kind of shocking-here’s Environment Canada pushing us onto Muskigarch’s site. Time to notice a lot of people have left that hellsite?

Called the city to report a dead goose in the park by the ball diamond yesterday-they came and picked it up. I ❤️ paying taxes so staff come clean up dead wildlife, maintain the park & ball diamonds. #TaxIsGood

I spent ages replying to the very-biased questions, clicked Submit and got a 403 error message. Will find somewhere to report it. Inn the meantime, don’t waste your time on this, try next week.

Ice forming here in #Quebec. Glad to get some sunshine and a lovely hike. Since the time change, the days feel so short and my sleep is disrupted.
