If Canada joins the EU, Canadian representatives to the European Parliament would need to be elected via proportional representation, it's part of the requirements. in c/canadapolitics@lemmy.ca

Saint-Pierre and Miquelon is a way better example. Only 19km away from Point May in Newfoundland.

French Island with ~6000 residents. Full EU member. {Edit: I might have been wrong on full EU member, seems to be kind of a member but kind of not} You can take a ferry there from Canada.

r/NiceVancouver.

25k+ users, we do practically zero moderation. Surprisingly it's pretty damn civil and great.

Canada: union rejects 2% raise when inflation at 8% in c/canadalabour@lemmy.ca
[–] TruckBC@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 years ago

I mean... They'd be kind of silly to accept a 2% increase in wages when inflation is much higher than that. That's not a raise that's a pay cut

Non-Profit Registration: Name suggestions. (lemmy.ca)
 

It's been on the back-burner for a bit but it's time that I get on it and register our operation as a on-profit organization. We will be registering under the BC Societies Act. Completing this registration will allow for opening up a bank account under the organization's name and reopen donations and have the previously donated funds transferred from @smorks@lemmy.ca to the organization.

To this date since taking over operations of Lemmy.ca I have personally covered the costs and have not been reimbursed to keep accounting as clean as possible. This will continue until registration has been completed.

First step to this is picking a name to register the Society under. Requirements for the name can be found here.

While the initial main purpose of the society/organization will be operating Lemmy.ca we would prefer a name that would be fit for operations of other open communication platforms as well as other potential projects that we may want to participate in in the future. Something somewhat open ended.

Please give us some suggestions and we will take the suggestions under advisement when picking a name.

Further information on non-profit registration in BC can be found here.

I never had COVID until everyone stopped caring about it. I'm on my 4th time having now.

Do not recommend.

I'm just curious, any reason everything you post seems to be from the paywalled WinnipegFreePress.com?

I'm getting an uneasy feeling about that.

Hello members of English Usage and Grammar. in c/english@lemmy.ca
[–] TruckBC@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

There was no need to capitalize the word ‘grammar’

I'm going to blame that on using swipe/gesture typing. I definitely do know it shouldn't have been capitalized. Honestly though I'm surprised that's the only thing you found considering English is my third language.

I've seen many people to over the fence. Not a great idea at all.

I think you all need to figure out the correct Lemmy terminology and make a guide for all the lost Lemmings!

If this community adequately rips me a new one for poor English usage and Grammar in this comment and you guys figure out a Lemmy guide, we will pin it instance wide for at least 24 hours!
