It won't be green because of the cold.. If it doesn't doesn't snow it is a brown / yellow Christmas.

Also you can't use your cross country skis, sleds, snowmobiles etc if there isn't any snow. No one wants to go out in the cold MUD.

Pamela O’Rourke says cannabis products for chronic pain condition, though not prescribed

though not prescribed

Hard to believe that anyone travels the world without even doing a little research on laws.. Even prescribed Dubai probably would have had issues with it.

It was only legalized semi recently in Canada, it is even still a problem if you try and take it to the US as there are challenges there.

Edit: to be clear I feel sorry for them but also really not surprised or outraged.. This is the expected outcome of brining a very controlled item into a country that has strict laws.

I cant make out the model number in your photo..

https://everymac.com/systems/apple/iphone/iphone-faq/differences-between-iphone-3g-iphone-3gs.html

Although external identification requires sharp eyes to spot it down at the bottom of the back of the phone, the iPhone 3G is model number A1241 and the iPhone 3GS is A1303. The China-only iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS models that do not have Wi-Fi are model number A1324 and A1325, respectively.

FYI I owned both, the 3GS was just leaps faster than the 3.. At this point however I would be surprised if there would run without a full battery swap due to age.

I think you need to go back to school humans are the APEX of endurance animals for walking on this planet. It is 100% within the physical norms of a human to walk all day.. The romans marched almost halfway across the world on foot.

Edit:

Canada post workers walk between 17-22km a day and carry up to 30 pounds of mail https://www.ufcw.ca/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=31576&catid=9845&lang=en#%3A%7E%3Atext=Letter+carriers+perform+physically+demanding%2Cno+walk+in+the+park.

It sounds like a lot until you track activities of active people it is well within reason. A typical warehouse worker in a large warehouse will do similar however it is indoors.

Someone doing recreational back country hiking will also carry that much are walk further.

YES physically demanding but not really extreme for a human.

I have had Canada post delivery issues as well, particularly in the past they would just dash a pickup notice to my door INSTEAD of knocking or ringing a door bell for packages.. I was CONSTANTLY going to the post office to pick things up that I WAS home for and could have received if they had rang the door bell or knocked even. It really comes down to the individual.

Everyone should be paid fairly but from the info so far I am not convinced the union demands are resonable in this case other than maybe the mat leave request.

The fediverse is more like a string of hit and miss mom and pop shops no one has heard of. Some are great, others are real dives.

Seems like there aren't many centrist communities where you can have nuanced discussions.
