Yes, but as I recall, you need to turn the history feature on first using Win-v, otherwise only the last item remains in memory.

More complex than that. Before you move anywhere, you should consider local infrastructure, availability of healthcare, doctors, and access to hospitals, local amenities, shopping, airports, public transit, weather, policing, snow removal and plowing, municipal taxes and fees, schools, recreation, etc.

Simply moving to another community is not a simple solution.

You don't have to move to Alberta to be honest. You can be honest in every province and territory. You can even be honest in the GTA, although it is sometimes harder there.

I'm pretty sure that the natural process of accumulation of organic material in forests is not controlled by corporations. In fact, that seems like a pretty wacky notion. Which corporations do you mean? And why would they be responsible?

@PM_ME_YOUR_ZOD_RUNES @lobut
In part it happens because the province outlawed bonusing in the Municipal Act, preventing municipalities from offering businesses benefits to move there (free land, tax breaks, etc). That helped concentrate business & industry in the GTA.

We saw a similar housing crunch in Collingwood, although it began before the pandemic. Now it's hard to find any houses under $800K, and many sell for >$1M. MPAC is part of the problem, too.

This year's coast-to-coast wildfires in Canada have already emitted an estimated one-and-a-half billion tonnes of CO2. That's triple the annual climate pollution from burning fossil fuels in Canada. It's more than the combined emissions from 100 nations. And there are still months of fire season looming ahead.
