Canadian CIP Students: Insurance Institute Semester Question

Hey everyone, I’m mapping out my CIP course load and I’m trying to figure out if the Insurance Institute has two semesters per year or three? The website currently only shows a Fall semester and a Spring semester. I’m wondering if there’s a summer semester I can plan for as well? 🤞

Dear Costco, please install repeaters in your stores.

Home Depot and IKEA can do it, so can you. The internet is here to stay and there’s no excuse for your stores to be a dead-zone. Rogers and Bell will install them for free.

Other than that, I love you!!

Thoughts on GoodLife Fitness at 8100 Highway 27?

I’m considering signing up. Lots of great Google reviews on the quality of the trainers but I’m looking for information on the busyness. I’ll be going to the typical doom-hours of 4:30-6:00 PM. I’m not naive, but wondering, if you go, do you have to wait for weights and benches? Machine weight times? Overall feeling of the place? Thanks!

Edit: ok, I hear you. Thanks for confirming it’s not great. I’ll be looking at alternatives. Please feel free to offer suggestions - my DMs are open if you want to keep your secret spaces to a minimum.

What’s your favourite episode?

I’m trying to get into the pod and tried to listen to Part 1: The Rise of the “Activist” Investor and it wasn’t for me. Is there a particular episode that resonates with you that I *MUST* listen to? I’m feeling some fomo here 😅

I wish we had a Burrito Boyz in town.

In case anyone out here is looking to buy into a franchise, I wish we had a Burrito Boyz in the N-dot. It’s delicious.

Ideally close to Yonge… for selfish reasons… 😋

Random question: How much does a pack of cigarettes cost these days?

I haven’t smoked in 16 years and have nobody to ask. Just curious.

Bonus if you tell me the brand and if it’s a 20, 25, or a carton (and how many packs in a carton).

I used to smoke Belmonts and I remember them being ~$14 when I quit, but don’t really recall.

Pee schedule

Hi everyone,
I’m curious to know what your puppy’s pee schedule looks like. We have an 8 month old rescue who was trained on pee pads so we’re working on getting her on an outside schedule. Here’s our day so far:

I got up at 6:00 AM, puppy went poo and pee

We went outside again at 7:30 AM, she pooed again, no pee. We were out for at least 15 minutes, maybe 20 minutes and she showed no signs of wanting to pee. We have a bigger yard so our time outside includes a gentle walk around - we’re not stationary but we’re also not trotting down the street.

We have pee pads in the house which don’t typically get used often but I’m working now and my husband just noticed (at 9:30 AM) that puppy used her pee pad to pee. I was going to take her out at 10:00 for a bathroom break.

I guess my question is how frequently does your pup pee (or how frequently did they pee at 8 months)?

I’m nervous, but do we get rid of the pads? Are they hindering the training process?

Thanks for your help!

This is a “me” problem, but I have to ask, how much time do your pups spend in their crate on a daily basis?

My scenario, I work hybrid, my husband works hybrid, and my mom is retired. Our pup came to us pee pad trained and has no need to wait to go to the bathroom. However we would like for her not to rely on the pads and would prefer that she goes out to do her business. I understand that crate training is the best way to achieve this, but the thought of having my pup in a crate is literally bringing me to tears.

What do you guys do? How did you potty train? I’ve been trying to take her out less often but she’s her own person and just uses pee pad when she wants. Is crate training the only way?

I’m hesitant to risk removing the pads altogether because I’m sure she’ll just try to go on the floor.

So we adopted this little o-month-old thing on Thursday and in that time she’s become firmly bonded to me, and now I’m upstairs in my workspace, she’s on the main floor with my mom whining and crying like she’s lost her best friend. Any suggestions What can we do to get her to accept all of us as her people and not be strictly bonded to me? Help, signed a first time dog mama who’s prepared to quit her job and move into the woods with a little white codependent puffball.

Seriously though, I don’t know how parents do this with human children 😭

Also, don’t mind the tear stains, we’ll work on that once the cone comes off.
