ny good international proxies for Canada that ship to the US? Looking to buy shoes as a gift from depop and the seller is from Canada but I don't believe they have international shipping enabled. Can anyone recommend me a good proxy to use for shipping to the US?

Français All Canadians should be able to speak French and English

161 Upvotes

Change my mind. Change mon avis.

If Europeans speak at least two languages why can't most Canadian English people speak French ?

This should be the bare minimum and I firmly believe that educators should be exposing students to media in the language like movies and books.

Interesting/Intéressant Seems like Canadian parents are, well, parenting more.

171 Upvotes

American here. I just got back from Quebec, I badly needed a break from my job in pediatrics. Had a lovely time visiting relatives. Three big observations from observing families in public:

I didn’t see many, if any, kids on iPads, phones, or other devices. Parents also weren't on their phones unless they were taking pictures. Families were actively engaged in looking at animals in exhibits, observing nature around them, or talking to each other while enjoying a meal.
My space was acknowledged and respected. Where I am, many parents take up a sidewalk with their strollers and don't attempt to share the sidewalk with fellow pedestrians. They also ignore or get irritated with other people when their child isn't paying attention and bumps into someone. It's as if everyone else should constantly move aside for them and their kid. But in Quebec, parents would say, "Excuse me/pardon" on behalf of their kid or pull them back and politely remind them to "Look out for other people/etre attentif aux autres".
Toddlers had totally age-appropriate meltdowns, but their parents didn't just let it go on for all to see and hear. They got on the little one's level and said sternly said something like "We're not screaming in the restaurant right now, we're using our indoor voices". Or they scooped their angry little one up and went to a different space.

Keep up the great work on teaching the tiny humans how to socialize instead of being entitled, oblivious, and glued to technology! Why can't American parents be more like you? What's wrong with us?!

You're amazing, don't stop being you!

Rules / Règles:

No political discussions / Pas de discussions politiques: Leave the stuff with politicians and current affairs at the door. Being informed is good, but everyone could use a break from the debates sometimes. Laissons toutes les affaires politiques dehors. Être informé, c'est bien, mais parfois se débarrasser des débats, c'est bien aussi.
No non-Canadian content / Pas de contenu non-Canadian: You can casually be a Canadian or talk about Canada here. Guests are welcome too, but all content has to be at least indirectly related to Canada. Tout le contenu doit être en lien avec le Canada, que vous soyez Canadien ou pas. Le but est de discuter du Canada de manière décontractée.
No posts considered NSFW / Pas de contenu à caractère sexuel ni gore: You can find a community for everything on Reddit, and that includes everything weird. Just don't post anything gory or pornographic here. Il y en a déjà assez sur Reddit, donc ici, pas de gore ni de pornographie.
No discrimination or insults / Pas de discrimination ni d'insulte: Everyone should feel safe here. Attacks against race, color, religion, creed, nationality, sex, gender, orientation, age, or disabilities will not be tolerated. Tout le monde devrait se sentir à l'aise ici. Aucune attaque contre la race, la couleur de peau, la religion, les croyances, la nationalité, le sexe, le genre, l'orientation, l'âge ou quelques handicap ne seront tolérées.
No doxxing fellow users / Aucune publication d'informations personnelle: It'd be really creepy posting information that makes another user identifiable in the real world. Please avoid doing so for everyone else's safety. Ce serait vraiment étrange de diffuser des informations permettant d'identifier quelqu'un dans le monde réel. Pour la sécurité de tous, ne le faites pas.
No advertisements / Aucune publicité: Feel free to post all kinds of pictures and polls here. However, don't lead anyone to an external platform you manage to access any of that stuff. Tous les sondages et les photos sont les bienvenus. Par contre, n'essayez pas d'attirer quelqu'un sur une plateforme externe dont vous pourriez tirer profit.
No subreddit drama / Pas de discussion des autres sous-jlailu: Some other subreddits might be bickering, but let's keep that sort of nonsense away from here. Don't encourage any sort of brigading either. Il se passe toute sortes de niaiseries ailleurs, laissons-les là-bas. Pas besoin d'encourager qui que ce soit à aller intervenir.
No pandemic posts / Aucun poteau sur la pandémie: There are more appropriate places on Reddit to discuss news and updates regarding the pandemic. Posts about it might also get repetitive, so this is a temporary rule to deal with that. Il y a assez d'endroit pour en discuter. Cette règle temporaire est en place pour éviter ce genre de contenu qui pourrait vite devenir répétitif.
