  "Driscoll’s berries are on many Canadians’ plates and all over Canadian grocery stores, with their tagline claiming to be “only the finest berries.” But a whistleblower lawsuit in California alleges the finest berries were not sent to Canada: instead, millions of pounds of fruit containing non-compliant levels of pesticides and chemicals crossed the border, and the company tried to cover it up. California resident and former Driscoll’s employee David Harada claims in the lawsuit that by D...

  I just want to enjoy our yard 😭 but the neighbours are, as always, on their balcony smoking weed and coughing/chocking/half dying every 5 seconds

  I'm supposed to eat high fiber, low cholesterol as much as possible (I'm not looking for advice unless it's suggestions of easy/delicious recipes). Made some baked oats with Greek yogurt, oat milk, eggs, chia seeds, hemp seeds, Québec wild blueberries and bananas. Breakfast for the week (and more)! #food

  Here you go, we got the yearly complaints about the tramway in Québec City, the too many new bike lanes, and how "we never go to old Québec anymore because there is no more parking". I told my mom that they never went before, surely it wasn't making a big difference and she was like "... Yeah that's true" Lmao they're so ridiculous

  No fence at the back of the yard, means eady access to the neighbourhood rabbit! I think it lives in the back neighbour's yard, which is half abandoned.

  We're (finally) having our new fence done. They're removing the old one today, pouring the concrete tomorrow and coming back on Monday for the actual fence. ... Three days, with us in Québec city, with no fence between us and the demon children from next door. I'm terrified lol

  "Since he launched his campaign, Mark Carney’s position on the French language has been clear: it’s a nuisance. Even now, he continues to treat Canada’s official bilingual status as a problem to solve rather than a point of pride. And francophones across the country are paying the price. Just this month, Carney arranged for one of his constituents – a consultant not registered to lobby the government – to meet with high-level officials and outline his plan to use artificial intelligence an...
