Isn't that just the same as people saying "ciao" when they are not Italian, or "adios" when they are normally not Spanish-speaking?

tata~ <-- I think this one is British too

I worked with a bunch of Aussies in my early career and have generally worked with a lot of folks who aren't Canadian through my career so I've picked up a fair bit of non-Canadian lingo. I've worked with German, Italian, American, Iranian, and Canadian leaders (both coasts) so I've had to learn how to code switch a lot when speaking/writing - everything from "whassup bro?" to "kindly do the needy" to "are you fucking kidding me?" to using/not using eggplant emojis.

So cheers is what I use a lot in writing and once in a while if I'm talking to an Aussie, Brit, or Kiwi.

I started saying "say hoy, lah!" after I met Badhobz. It has costed me some serious opportunities. I would suggest saying something like "Ciao" or "Cheers" instead.

We use "cheers" all the time as a farewell in an email, or meeting, it feels like a more informal/friendly version of goodbye.

68 has a great energy, no wonder by lady went straight to him

Developers love to whine about anything that reduces their profits and seem to think it's the cities responsibility to ensure their projects are as profitable as possible, to the detriment of everyone else. So if he's complaining about those things they're probably a good idea lol.

LOL she lost a year of free pay because she couldn't just NOT post something racist. I mean even if the bodies thing ended up being a fallacy it doesn't mean kids weren't abused and treated horribly ffs.

Did she think she was doing a brave thing?

So this woman is the Cons' communication officer, and she is still dumb enough to spew this kind of hateful BS in public social media?! If she had an iota of political climate awareness, she would have known better and kept her mouth shut even if she believed in the BS that she wrote.

Exactly what I was gonna say. You’re in communications and you’re not aware of what is appropriate/not appropriate to say?

She essentially fired herself!

Anyone with such a prominent position in politics shouldn't be posting on social media period (stick to liking thirst traps on IG).

Hospital finds big chunk of their ER visits were by a small number of people - some homeless - so they build a 4 story apartment building for those patients to live in that has access to doctors, nurses and food allowing these people to get back on their feet AND dramatically reduce their need to use the ER.

That’s great to hear stories like that and it’s been proven to be an effective strategy. Needs to be scaled up substantially.
I’ll try and find the article about a similar living setup they have in Kelowna that was privately funded by a wealthy individual, that had similar successful stories coming from it. It brings the rehabilitation aspect we are missing in the prison system through small doses of personal responsibility with the opportunity to improve oneself.

One of my favourite canto sayings is "sei dou sei mai yut been la mm goiii" which roughly translates to "if you're going to die, die off to one side please". It's hilariously awful and sarcastic lol. Kind of a gtfo of my way comment.
