If you’re interested – keep reading. If you already feel offended I suggest you continue reading as you’ll soon find out that life’s just rough.…
As you may know, women in Canada do not receive equivalent pay compared to those of a male. Evidence shows that in Canada, women earn 84 cents to every $1 a male earns. For minority men and women, there is an even greater gap between their income and that of a white man’s in the…
Two days ago, I went out of town with my family to see the canola fields. We do this on every year, but we would usually go at the end of August, when most of the yellow flowers have finished blooming. This year, however, we didn’t make the same mistake again and went during the…
There is almost no prospect of travelling anytime soon for me. To revitalize my interest in Calgary, I’ve tried experiencing the city through a tourist’s lens. Attractions in Calgary tend to have a business model that favours locals, who can forgo the exorbitant daily admission prices by purchasing an annual pass. One adult ticket for…
Juneteenth (June 19th) is an official annual holiday to celebrate the legal end of slavery in the US. After many recent racially motivated attacks, this seems like a sigh of relief for many. On June 19, 1865, American troops arrived in Texas and informed enslaved people that the civil war had ended and slavery had…
The days succeeding a major sporting event are usually filled with celebration. However, the aftermath of the Euro 2020 tournament was far more unpleasant.

Hey everyone! I recently got back from a quick trip to Vancouver and now I can confidently say that I understand why it’s such a popular city. Everything from its landscape to its diverse communities makes Vancouver such a great vacation spot. One highlight from my trip and almost all of my trips in…
While many individuals in Canada wish for hot weather during the cold winter days, many places experienced hot, record-breaking temperatures this summer. In the past week, Environment Canada issued heat warnings for Alberta, British Columbia, and certain parts of Manitoba, Yukon, Saskatchewan, and Northwest Territories. With that said, staying cool will be more important than…
At first glance, the concept of mixing and matching two different vaccines is perplexing—if not horrifying. Perhaps it’s because we tend to think of vaccines like medicines: we feel like we have to complete the vaccine series by getting two doses of the same vaccine. Otherwise, we feel they might not be as effective. And…
The COVID vaccine isn’t the most terrifying thing in the world. When you first get poked by the needle, it feels no more painful than a mosquito bite. A few hours after getting jabbed, however, some nasty side effects start to pop up. Your arm becomes a sore, limp noodle. You feel nauseous and dizzy.…
Get ready 2000s (and younger) kids.. time to stroll down memory lane. First of all we gotta start with the snacks, if yk what I mean..
