How much support new parents get seems to vary by city (and maybe province?).
I've also had two children born in Canada in the past few years, but in different cities (and provinces). Neither gave us a baby box, but the first provided a free and unprompted hearing test right in the recovery room, while the other required us to make a seperate appointment in the weeks following the birth for that same service.
My angel is the centrefold?
Assuming you were aiming for the French phrase for 'seafood', I think you meant 'fruit de mer.'
'Fruit de la mère' would translate to, 'fruit of the mother.'
A few months ago, my work got everyone Copilot 365 licences. I have yet to use it, and I haven't seen anyone in my immediate vicinity using it either. So from my perspective, it's wasted money and bandwidth. I do work at a very large organization, so maybe there are people elsewhere who do use it, but it has yet to contribute anything to my work.
You want to know what would make my job easier? A password manager or unified login of some sort. I'm currently juggling nearly a dozen unique passwords, and it's mentally taxing.
If you were talking about neckties, maybe. Loosening social ties doesn't sound natural, at least to me.
This recently happened in my campaign.
We were fighting a dragon, and it kept flying around its lair, making it very hard for my Barbarian to hit it. We ultimately won, but 3 of the party of 5 died.
Later, while dividing loot, I saw that I had been carrying a Potion of Flying the whole time, and the fight probably would have gone better if I had used it.
You're right, they don't.
The ones beginning with "d" generally translate as "of the," while the "à" ones generally translate as "to the" or "at the."
French has three words that mean "the": "le" (masculine), "la" (feminine), and "les" (plural).
I had an surprising one, actually: I went to a private religious school, but I had a strangely comprehensive sex education.
It started with unvarnished discussions of human anatomy and cautions about sexual abuse around age 8, and then moved on to the basics of (hetero)sexuality by the time I was a preteen. In high school that continued, though talk about birth control was postponed until the health units of later physical education courses, which not everyone took. Of course, the stress was always that sexual activity should be limited to monogamous (heterosexual) marriage, and there was no mention of anything outside of the hetero-normative.
The last wrinkle was that it was all opt-out. At every point, there was at least one person who would leave the room for the duration of the class because their parents really didn't want them learning about naughty bits.
So it ended up actually providing a pretty good foundation. It was still incomplete and biased, but a lot better than what you would expect when you hear "private religious school."
I've been cautioning people as well. Right-wing politics aren't unpopular in Canada, it's just that the the centrist voters got spooked my Trump.
No one should bet on another miracle for the next election. The best case scenario may be that the PC wing retakes control of the federal Conservatives and we just get a raft of deregulation and privatization without all the culture war grievances.
Anyone else bothered by the grammar in the first panel? Or is it just me?
Yeah, they are in different ridings, though they are adjacent.
Our first also needed a frenotomy, and we had to go to a specialist clinic outside the hospital.
My best understanding of that situation was that they first wanted to make sure it was actually a problem over a week or two of observation. Then, the procedure was technically classified as dental surgery, so a doctor at a hospital couldn't perform it for professional/ethical/insurance reasons.
