Hello, friends,
Our office will be closed on
September 30th, 2021 for the
National Day for Truth and Reconciliation

September 30th is the first National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. This federal statutory holiday is a day to honour the survivors of residential schools and to remember and recognize those children who never returned.

In order to show our respect to the Indigenous communities, we will be closed on September 30th. We feel that it is important – especially in light of the recent discoveries of thousands of residential school graves – that this day not be a day of “business as usual”. We feel this should be a day of reflection, a day where we strive to educate ourselves about the settler treatment of the Indigenous Peoples.

We will reopen on October 1st for regular office hours.

Hello, friends!

Just a little reminder that Canada Day is on Thursday and we will not be in the office. Instead, we will be at home battling the giant spiders that have invaded our apartment in - what I can only assume is - their attempt to get away from the heat, except there is no getting away from this heat FOOLISH ARACHNIDS FEEL THE STING OF MY ROLLED UP 'I LOVE CATS' MAGAZINE, BWAHAHAHAHA!!!

Ahem... sorry about that. So, yes, we will be closed on July 1st, reopening for regular hours on July 2nd.

Have a safe Canada Day and may you stay cool and spider-free.

To celebrate the long weekend, we have a special for you all...

A priest, a pastor, and a rabbit walk into a blood donation clinic. The nurse says to the rabbit "What is your blood type?" The rabbit says "I'm probably a type O"

Happy Easter, everyone!

Hello, friends,

Tomorrow is April 1st and I just want to caution you all about pulling those April Fools pranks. You may think making your friends feel foolish is hilarious, but those jokes can have some pretty nasty results. Like snails. Yeah, snails. You just know that some guy tricked his buddy into eating one of those little, slimy garden pests as an April Fools joke and now we pay $20 to eat "escargot" in fancy French restaurants. THEY'RE SLUGS WITH A HOME, PEOPLE!! Ugh... I feel woozy. Anyway, just be careful, is all I'm saying.

In other news, the Easter long weekend is almost here and we have modified office hours for you:

Friday, April 2nd: Closed
Saturday, April 3rd: 9:00 - 2:00
Sunday, April 4th: Closed
Monday, April 5th: 9:00 - 5:30

Please keep in mind that office visits are by appointment, so give us a call at 604-298-5571 if you are planning on coming in to see us.
