Yes!! Libraries are so important for our communities.
Getting a library card also may also get you access to Libby and Hoopla, which have free ebooks and audio books, as well as magazines and graphic novels! Hoopla has music albums as well, and Kanopy which has tv shows, documentaries, and movies.
Insert the "having fun isn't hard when you've got a library card" meme here.
I looked it up! She was british-Canadian! I remember reading so many of her books in middle school, they were great! My school library labeled books by Canadian authors with a maple leaf on the spine, so I tried to read as many of those as I could.
Margaret Atwood is the first that comes to mind... I've enjoyed all that I've read by her!
Life of Pi by Yann Martel is another popular one.
I'm a sucker for Anne of Green Gables by L.M. Montgomery too.
I had to look up top Canadian Authors to see what/who I've read, and I discovered one of my favorite recent YA fantasy authors lives in BC... Rachel Heartman (although she was born in the US so I don't know if that counts, lol).
Apparently Kobo Plus offers unlimited ebooks and audiobooks for $10/month. Not sure how that compares to audible, because I haven't used it.
I like Libby, which is free and run through your local library, although it's not a Canadian company.
Hoopla is another free library app.
Someone already mentioned apps, but another one to look at is cloud storage and email services, and switching to local storage(ie, hard drives) and/or non-US services if possible.
Just so I'm clear, if/when Trump imposes tariffs on Canadian goods entering the US, Canada plans reciprocate with equal Teriffs on US goods entering Canada?
I/we know and understand that teriffs are basically an import tax, paid to the government by the companies which are bringing the product in, and generally that cost is passed down to consumers in the form of a higher price tag on goods.
Is the end goal here is to bolster our own economy by making US goods prohibitively expensive for Canadian citizens to buy, in turn making Canadians more likely to purchase Canadian goods (which is what we are trying to do anyway)?
What is stopping this from hurting out economy the same way it will likely hurt the US economy?
I feel like I need a stronger understanding of the situation.
