I am the same! I'm in my 40's and still when I put on heels I feel like I'm "playing dress-up" because I just don't feel comfortable in them. I've tried a few times to switch to wearing a dressier wardrobe, but I peter out after a few months. I've become resigned to the fact that I'm a casual dresser at heart.

Oh gosh, Hana's in french immersion and I write to her teacher in English. I haven't had to write in french since I finished high school. Mind you, I'm in Markham so there's zero expectation that parents here have any french background.

I had a similar experience years ago when I was working in California and got onto the topic of the War of 1812 with a few other coworkers. Most expressed surprise at my interpretation of events, though I did have one American coworker who was a bit of a history buff. She said she was embarrassed by how the war is covered in the US school system.

I also had another coworker express surprise that Canada had fought in World War II, but that's another story...

I'd have to go with Apple.

Other than Ottawa folks that I follow on Twitter I don't hear anyone talking about Porter. I'm not even sure what their Logo looks like.

A little late, in my opinion. But a pounce nonetheless.

What is wrong with this government? This case is just appalling...either the government is completely incompetent or willfully malicious. It's obvious now that they made a mistake. If they have any human decency they will get this woman back home to her family.
