Snow might still be on the ground, but summer hiring is well underway for employers in Banff, Canmore and Lake Louise — and amid a persistently tight labour ...

The government agency has also launched a new youth and student summer job portal to make it easier to apply for jobs. "In some places last summer we were 15-per-cent unstaffed," said Cochrane. On YouTube and social media, marketing videos titled "What is an entry level job?" For example, the posted wage for a dishwasher at the Banff Centre has risen from $16.31 per hour in November 2021, to between $17.50 and $18.25 an hour this year, according to data from the Job Resource Centre. "Our key message is to be competitive," said Michel Dufresne, director of the Job Resource Centre for Banff and Canmore, who's telling employers to raise wages and to give their staff enough time off to enjoy living in the mountain community. "We have actually increased wages to be very competitive, and in order to attract candidates and also to retain employees once we have them," said Peirce.

The Rogers-Shaw decision is proving to be a legally significant case for Canada by setting a precedent that might make merger challenges harder in the ...

When a deal is substantially modified after the commissioner files a formal application, he has to adjust his evidence and strategy on the fly. One solution is to create a default rule saying major post-challenge changes to the original deal require a new notification, triggering a fresh review, unless parties can prove it’s not needed. Baking a remedy directly into a deal means the remedy isn’t looked at separately from the overall question of whether the deal is anti-competitive. Usually merging parties have suggestions for how to remedy concerns ahead of time, and the commissioner and the parties can reach a resolution without needing litigation. For parties seeking a remedy the commissioner objects to, a late deal change is a way they can propose a remedy. Sometimes the commissioner and the parties are able to agree on a remedy to settle a contested case. Parties that propose alternatives to the commissioner’s remedy must convince the tribunal their remedy is adequate and achievable. Most merger review happens at the notification stage when [the bureau reviews transactions by parties](https://www.canada.ca/en/competition-bureau/news/2023/02/pre-merger-notification-transaction-size-threshold-to-remain-at-93m-in-2023.html) to see if a deal raises competition concerns. The Rogers-Shaw decision upends the merger review process in two ways. The commissioner must prove the deal will likely cause a “substantial lessening or prevention of competition.” The tribunal was unconvinced the merger would negatively affect competition for wireless services in British Columbia and Alberta. 24, 2023, opponents of the deal have urged Champagne to override the tribunal decision.

The head of Pernod Ricard North America uses her past experiences with sexual assault and drunk drivers to inform marketing choices.

I would [also] love to open my own restaurant and be the Stanley Tucci of India. And it’s a way for me to use something illustratively to say, “I care. I try to get people out of their own way and give them inspiration and hope. At that time, the company wanted to make bold statements. growth “to try to make us number one in the world.” That $22 million investment is expandable so as that business gets bigger, we have the ability to grow with it. But due to their loud crackling sounds, the bags got withdrawn. They expect those brands to be walking the talk. Now she’s the first woman, person of color, and industry outsider to lead Pernod Ricard’s North American unit, which excludes Mexico. You have to get a return on it,” says Mukherjee, the 57-year-old chairwoman and CEO of Pernod Ricard North America, the largest operation at the world’s second biggest producer of wine and spirits. Mukherjee was born in India, and raised in the U.S. That’s why my responsibility is to lend my voice and humanize issues,” she says.

Elite athletes racing in the WCTS can complete a sprint distance substantially under 60 minutes – as mentioned, the draft-legal format undoubtedly contributes ...

We mention the above to provide some perspective when comparing what constitutes a good time for a certain race distance, especially if you are curious to compare your athletic prowess to that of the sport’s best athletes. To help you set realistic goals, we have detailed some of the issues that can skew what is considered a good time for a triathlon: That means your overall race time starts when your swim commences and stops only when you cross the finishing line. In fact, aiming to go below one and a half hours means you are setting yourself up for a good time that is likely to place you well up the leaders’ board. It is difficult to give a narrow ballpark finishing time for the pros, since variations in the weather and course can make a substantial difference. Triathlons can be broadly split into two, those that allow drafting on the bike and those that do not [Link to Jargon Buster]. Importantly, different races have different cut-off times, that is times by when you have to complete each discipline and the overall race. For pro male athletes, breaking 8 hours is still seen as a great achievement, and often a necessity if you want to win. It is not unheard of for top-end age-groupers to dip under the hour for a sprint distance triathlon, and in some age-group categories you may well need to do so if you want to win a national title – in any event, serious kudos. However, it can be an appealing option due to the distances being attainable for most with a relatively limited training time commitment, the event itself not taking up your whole day, and still offering the chance to be raced at full tilt if that is your aim. For example, 5 years ago a men’s race could be won with a 1.15 half-marathon, and a run time of 1.11 would really stand out. For instance, what distance of triathlon, what type of course, and more importantly a good time for who?

In a letter to the editor of the Journal of Paris in 1784, Benjamin Franklin wrote, "Early to bed, and early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise.

An early morning experience in the outdoors – whether it be a walk or even just a few moments of quiet contemplate about the new day – is an excellent step to good health. The study’s findings further suggested the disruption to sleep patterns might even trigger the onset of depressive symptoms. Don’t forget the function of sleep as a sort of garbage collection system. One study published in Sleep Medicine found the springtime change was associated with increased symptoms of depression, particularly in people who already had a history of depression. The time change and associated disruption to sleep patterns can have more serious health consequences. The effect of DST on sleep is significant.

This past November, I read a book that echoed my deepest anxieties, an experience which was both gratifying and uncomfortable. I was studying W.G. Sebald's The ...

Eliot did not intend to assuage existential dread when he wrote, “In a minute there is time / For decisions and revisions which a minute will reverse.” Rather, he was confirming the same concerns that plague me. They have found ways to cope with the question I’ve hinted at, which is, “What is the meaning of it all?” I was annoyed at having to read the text and especially irritated that I had to confront the existential questions I deliberately avoided. The likening of opium and time expresses the theme of the novel that we use the prospect of the future — or the passage of time — as a sedative against the fear of the very future we look forward to. Last summer, I watched the movie The Remains of the Day, which despite not literally being a movie about an old man, was one to me. I obsess over whether the elderly man sitting alone at a restaurant has had a good life, whether he is happy with his 80 or 90 years of existence, or whether he would undo some of his life choices if he could.
