Here at home, Canadians are wondering if there will be a spring or fall election this year. Much of that uncertainty, however, is largely being generated from the leaders themselves.  We’ve seen much of the deadlock and indecision that is to be expected with a minority government; but we’ve also seen some scandals and very poor judgment from all sides of government (anyone still remember Oda?).  The leaders are not leading very well, and that is leaving many canadians not only wondering but a little ticked off. The Agenda’s Steve Pakin discusses these and more issues in this panel. What are you’re thoughts?

    Microsoft Unveils New Xbox One

    New console may pave the way for gaming integration By Jaron Serven, Staff Writer   Well, it’s here—and no, it’s not called the Xbox 720. Don Mattrick, Microsoft president of interactive entertainment business, unveiled the next generation Xbox One during a much-hyped Tuesday morning press conference. The original Xbox was released in November 2001—launching with a controller so big, one could fight a zombie apocalypse with it—and quickly gained popularity, due in part to the marquee launch title Halo. Its successor, [...]

The following infographic provides some interesting and thought provoking [...]

    Improve Your Writing Skills

    Author of “Life of Pi”, Yann Martel, says the key to writing well is simply…wait for it…to read. Most people have a problem letting go; but take a break, then return–there’s no strict formula to writing. It’s all cerebral and mental, it can drive you nuts if you continue to plug away. He says, the best teacher is a cheap, little Penguin classic. Read beyond what you want to write about, all topics should be covered. Writing is the greatest [...]

    How Much Should I Tip?

    Okay, a tip jar is optional. But at a sit-down restaurant, the server deserves at least 15%, with an additional 5% (each, don’t skimp) for good service and feeling nice. Leaving at least $2 per person is necessary if the food was cheap. Think about it: they make you happy, you make them happy. As a former server, I can justify that about 60%-70% of your living expenses come from tips. It’s just the right thing to do! It encourages [...]
