Hydro Ottawa – COVID-19

by




Yesterday, a colleague made me aware of the options provided by Hydro Ottawa in these times of COVID-19. Essentially, customers can choose between two rate structures as set by the Ontario Energy Board (OEB): time-of-use and tiered rates. Hydro Ottawa’s website details structures available effective October 13, 2020 as well as the rates effective November 1, 2020. Their website also addresses deferral of global adjustment charges, electricity service disconnection bans, scams during the COVID-19 emergency, electricity bill payment options, and financial assistance.

Master Main Bedroom

by





In an effort to promote diversity, inclusion, and anti-racism let’s rename the master bedroom the main bedroom or something similar.

Before reading John Legend’s call out to realtors, while showing a home earlier this week, I actually thought about this. I spoke with someone at the real estate board yesterday and am told it’s already in the works. But as Legend states in order to right the wrongs of discrimination we need to go beyond semantics.

What it’s Like Being Black (or Brown) in Ottawa

by





Two interesting articles from the Citizen pertaining to racism. The first one What it’s like being black (or brown) in Ottawa and the other one Why the term ‘people of colour’ is offensive to so many. Interesting reads to help us better understand each other and the paths we travel.

I never understood the term American African. I will say I’m caucasian not Canadian European. As I google these terms I find first, that caucasian not only means white but of European origin. Then when I google Canadian African google returns Black Canadians from Wikipedia and Black Canadians from The Canadian Encyclopedia. So varying opinions on that subject!

And what about this video. I’ve seen myself asking these questions. Not meaning to be offensive. I think to my defense I’d say I’ve asked the questions when the person has a distinct accent and thus a recent Canadian. I’m not meaning to be offensive, I’m interested, but perhaps is it seen as offensive.



Margee House

by





Margee House in Hintonburg is being put on the market for sale. Asking price is 3.2 million, which apparently is land value. I had not seen the work done to stabilize it, can’t call that attractive. Very sad when a piece of history is threatened. And of what I’ve seen from the city, preserving built heritage is officially important, and yet. Sad story, as this was an important piece of history for Hingonburg, my favourite neighbourhood in the city. Let us hope a very keen buyer acquires it and wishes to restore it to its former glory. Let’s go with that! Dear Mr/Mrs buyer do not hesitate to contact me for assistance.
