Maybe it's been already discussed here, but I didn't know there's a housing crisis also going on in Canada/Toronto:



Where do our Canadian members live? Do you see this in your city/neighborhood?

Yeah I think the wide release is around that time. But our chat is going to focus on composing music for the screen, which she did for this film and some other stuff

It didn't happen, my mom got sick and I had to cancel.

I thought someone might step in to replace me but the entire panel got scrapped. Sucks.

We've talked a few times and hope to collaborate in some way soon. She's so cool.

She did send me an autographed copy of Paying For It

I just learned I am eligible for Canadian citizenship. Struggling to imagine the possibilities.

That's too bad. But those are fun doodles. Chester Brown and an alien from Toy Story?

I’d be shocked that they didn’t go with this slogan but I don’t think any of them are that clever.

No, my dad learned that my great-great-grandfather actually landed in Canada before starting a family and moving to the US. So under Canadian law, we'd be granted citizenship with the proper paperwork. We have similar eligibility for Portugal and Italy, and are just being lazy about getting stuff sorted out.
