They are expanding voter eligibility to all legal residents in this spring's election, as I'm sure you know. It will be interesting to see how that unfolds. Worth monitoring from our side of the pond for sure.

Lots of people representing lots of nations on Parliament Hill on the anniversary of Russia's full scale invasion. Ukraine continues to fight for their sovereignty and for democracy. Слава Україні! #Ukraine #StandWithUkraine #Canada #cdnpoli
To write is to revise!
The 2026 Metropolis Conference, titled Rethinking African Mobility: Past Lessons, Present Realities, Future Possibilities, takes place at the University of Ghana. Hope I get to join! metropolisintl.org/2026-confere... #immigration
She was a total pro. Hopefully enough people saw that interview so they can see his ignorance on full display.
It was a great time! Your toast to the laddies was great, Laura.
Great post, Emmett. I live a few hundred feet from Parliament Hill. I recall apologizing to the (very understanding) students in my tutorial about the train horn that was disrupting us. The situation only abated when the EA was invoked.
Smart. I know someone who is going through shingles. They are in horrific pain. I got the shot too. I'm younger than the age when it is considered risky, but it is still worth it.
It is astonishing that we live in a world where the tantrums of a thin skinned narcissist shape how major negotiations can hsppen. I can't move past my "how did we get here" shock.
Yes, for example, some sectors are inherently difficult to pivot away from the US. Geography matters in trade. We need to do something though. The situation is unsustainable.
I wonder how much she was weighing the environmental effect of having two general elections in the same calendar year in her decision to vote.
My grandfather was on the HMCS Prince Robert for two years in the Mediterranean. Today is about honoring him and all the other veterans. #RemembranceDay #LestWeForget
Many of us have your backs here in Canada too! We had a great turnout at our protest with lots more from people passing by. Here's to the forces of sanity!
It can also help you see ways to make your code more efficient. Le chat is another good LLM for code.
You're spot on about the fairness aspect. As educators, we just need to keep looking for solutions and revising our approaches as we learn. And recognize that it adds an unfair burden to the students who don't misuse AI.
Yes, it's challenging for sure. I've had some success with impressing the message that they will get less out of the course. But that message won't work for everyone.
Had a great time at Ottawa Pride with three MTF trans friends. Allies play an important role in creating safe spaces for the community.
People need to understand the regulatory college/authority's role. They are established in law to protect the public. A licensed professional making transphobic statements undermines the profession's reputation among trans people and others. Thus, it's certainly something they need to address.
I think it would be useful to know how the answers are associated with different understanding on what are Canadian values. Also, the way Canada selects immigrants is part of our values. Further, numerous waves of immigrants played a strong role in what individuals would identify as Canadian values.
Indeed. And he was brazen enough to put that in email. He wouldn't have been better behaved in person.
Great post, Tatyana.
Regarding innovation, of course, many immigrants are selected because of their education, experience, etc. So what you say makes intuitive sense.
Thank you kindly!
I'd be delighted to take part in your immigration starter pack.
And yet, far too many people don't understand that Russia owns him. Or that this is part of a pattern of interference.
What he actually did was remind us of why we want nothing to do with this jingonistic 51st state tripe.
Best thing I've seen in a while. Keep doing what you do, Charlie! Elbows up!
The Still Stones.
Agree. And the public needs better resources informing them on what is appropriate to put in chatbots vs. not. I fear too many people are typing-in the kind of information that really, really shouldn't be out in the world.
Horrifying on so many levels.
We definitely need it here. Thanks for sharing, Ariel.
