«Some objects, like groundstone axes, date back to the Late Paleoindian Period between 11,000 and 9,500 years ago — a time when, previously thought, there was little evidence of human activity in New Brunswick.»
"There's not many collections sort of as big as this, and as spectacular," said Dallas Tomah, a research assistant, UNB student and member of Wotstak First Nation, also known as Woodstock First Nation.

I believe he is a criminal and an authoritarian who is trying to destroy our democracy and the rule of law. I spend a considerable amount of my time fighting against him and his enablers in court and in public discourse.

An issue we're seeing at all levels of university is that many students are simply refusing to do *anything*. They aren't reading the syllabus, aren't following assignment guidelines, aren't engaging with material, ignoring deadlines. And this might seem like old news, but it truly has ramped up.

They ended up littering streets + sidewalks.
Many cities, like #Paris and #Montreal, banned them as a nuisance.
