Here is the info requested. I came to Canada as a vacation/working trip - I conducted leadership training for 12 fire departments up there in the Jasper region. I did the class for free. They took care of all the expenses: air fare, hotel accomidations, and auto expenses for myself and my wife for the week.

Just finished Philosophy and a CJS class. Keeping a great GPA... Workin at it. Starting again Jan. 3rd. All is ok. Totalled my new car last week...OUCH. Trying to recoup. No fun being the patient on rescue and not the rescuer!! FML. Thank God for small favors, I'm HERE..... The car's not so lucky. Tractor trailer came over clipped me and it was a mess of metal and rubber after that. Craziness.
