4 pages in and we're already talking about food. That has to be some kind of record.

Re: Quebecor selling off the Sun papers, the sooner those rags disappear, the better. I will however, miss those hilarious front pages that roll out whenever the Liberals win the provincial elections.

I'm sure nobody verifies it. I knew people who counted 'mowed the lawn for dad' as volunteer hours or just plain lied. There were almost no volunteer opportunities in town unless you're part of a church.

If your city has kids and a community centre/YMCA, you're golden. I got all my poo poo done over one summer after 9th grade. Jesus, that was a long time ago.

In regards in what counted, I remember being explicitly told that doing volunteer work for for-profit organizations absolutely would not count. Seeing the lovely practice of unpaid internships volunteering "opportunities" (without the actual giving back to the community) being dangled in front of loving high school students is a new kind of low.

That scantron thing was cool, felt like the future. Why the hell can't we have those for the bigger elections?

I was totally weirded out by that.

I guess because it's easier to tally votes for multiple candidates on a ballot via scantron whereas in provincial and federal elections, you only need to make just one choice with an X on a paper ballot. So probably a cost thing.

Are they still having trouble finding a country who actually wants to host the 2024 games?

I think they're still fielding candidates. Actual rounds of voting for potential host countries doesn't usually take place until like one or two olympics away. Tokyo 2020 was only decided last year.

Either way, never underestimate a country's willingness to embezzle money in major sporting events.
