Hi everyone!

I am a Canadian who planned a trip to visit Acadia National park. I have been to that park quite a few times over the years. Wtf is the 100 non-resident upcharge? How is entry 2.5x my camping spot? As of right now, for a 3 day 2 nights trip, just entry would be close to 400$.

I honestly am thinking of just cancelling my travel to Maine, because this is ridiculous. Before I do so, I was wondering if they actually enforce it? Could I just pay it on-site and say I don't have my american passport or smth? How do they verify US residency?

Btw, my goal is not to scam the NPS, I would be happy to pay an upcharge, but this is exagerated and really expensive and out of my budget as a university student. Its sad, because i'm sure tourists contribute a lot to the economy around Acadia.

Anyway, would love to hear your thoughts on this.

Hi !

Planning a roadtrip, and I am in Halifax around noon on the 11th, and was planning on leaving early on the 13th to drive up to Cape Breton. In Cape Breton I am spending 2 nights there, where the last day is just dedicated for driving back. Should I instead spend 3 nights in Cape Breton? Or should I keep 2 nights in Halifax?

Also if you have any Must-do's in Cape Breton or Halifax let me know!

Hello!

I want to visit Atlantic Canada this summer as I am a student on a budget with nothing planned for the entirety of July. I am from Quebec close to Ottawa and will be making this a road trip.

Tell me your must-do’s ! I have lots of time to explore. I only know so far that I’ll go to Newfoundland for the Gros Morne Park, that’s the extent of it lol.

Shoot me with all your tourist spot but also the hidden gems ;)

Lastly, what’s your best route to take to reach Atlantic Canada? Do folks go through Maine or remain on the south shore of the St Lawrence through Quebec City and such?

Thanks everyone!

Hi everyone!

Just graduated (yay!) and I have 2 diplomas to frame. I really like the one I attached to this post, but it feels expensive for a frame (maybe because its the official one).

Any idea of places where frames may be less expensive? It doesn't have to be exactly like the one in the picture, just general frame store in Ottawa where I can go and browse !

thanks 😄

Hi everyone!

I have a very uneventful birthday coming up and as a broke student, thought I may as well get some freebies.

I know kettle man has one in the app, same with firehouse subs. Know of any good ones and how to get them? Thanks! 🙏

DAMN its expensive. Whats the best way to avoid it? Costco and walk? Grab a meal at eggspectation and walk after?

Sorry, can't do public transit sadly as we come from Gatineau from the game :(

Hi!

How do you actually use the indices? Are they actually usefull?

Same thing with charts and summaries : How do you incorporate them in your studying?

Thanks!

Hi !

Domestic grad here. Currently finished 2 books : Real estate and public law, and I am scared shitless. I decided to go for a method of study which requires me to read a booklet, then do thee Bar exam crackers practice set for both booklet, and my result is HORRIBLE! Like absolutely crap : 29/44 for public law, 33/59 for Real Estate.

For reading, I kind of just read the pages at around 50 pages a day, highlight with different colors (delays, tests, and professionnal resp. tips + the important stuff in different colors), and that is it.

Please let me know what I should do differently. I am scared shitless now ngl
