There’s not much of interest to report around here. So how would you like to hear about my neighbours and their garbage issues again? Remember the group of Israeli youth who moved in and were better-than-average neighbours except they couldn’t figure out the complexities of Ottawa’s garbage system? Well, they left. And they were replaced by […] I’m leaving for Toronto later today to attend a conference. I’ll be staying in a no-frills hotel down the street from the fancy hotel where the conference is being held.
