  1. I’m in BC, still wearing my winter jacket, still waiting to transplant my seedings to plant in the garden.

    1. @GEN 913 I live in Ottawa. I work outside, all day, every day. Im very sure about exactly what the weather is like.

    2. @LucVNO so we agree then, the weather differs depending where you are and there’s really nothing unusual about the temps we’ve been having. πŸ‘πŸ»

    3. @GEN 913 Its not unusual to have a hot or cold spring, a hot or cold summer. Seasons are like that. Its been a cold spring. I dont really care if this bothers you or not. Cheers.

  2. “Canadians will be complaining about the heat & humidity”.. ya.. and also dying from it like all over the rest of the world…
    Why do weather reporters act like this weather is normal? This one is definitely as old as I am and should know from Experience that this weather is not normal…
    We didn’t used to get heat waves until late July… and then as we went back to school there was frost on the ground in the mornings midway through September..
    There are 2 climate conditions that we are experiencing and neither of them are being talked about by “climatologists OR meteorologists”, both having an “impact” on our climate for the past 13000 years…

  3. Starting early is the best way of getting ahead to built wealth, Investment remains the priority, the stock market has plenty opportunities to earn a decent payout, with the right skills and proper understanding of how the market works.

    1. Thank you very much, I
      contacted her and she was swift to reply, she was
      amazing and professional also, thanks once
      more.

    2. I’ve never heard or seen any of her clients complain of Lost….I think she’s just too perfect

    3. @Park Jude I think investing is easier with proper guidance, especially from a proffessional it really helps reduce the chances of running into losses. All thanks to Mr Glenn Dubin He changed my life, I was able to pay off my mortgage
