E-scooters are a hot topic across Canada! While there isn’t yet a robust body of evidence, we can use available data on injuries to provide common sense recommendations for improving safety. It’s important we continue to emphasize Vision Zero principles and a safe systems approach. No matter what transportation looks like today or 10 years from now, we need to prioritize systems that support us all to move through our communities without risking our lives or serious injury. #ParachuteVZ

HISTORY: "Throughout all this, the ship, which has managed to retain almost totemic significance, continues to break hearts and rack up costs as the years tick away. You might feel very charitable as a port operator, but the old 'United States' takes up a lot of wharf as she lay alongside, for which you might believe could be more economically employed. A fine old ship, but would you mind taking her somewhere else.
"This new fashion for consigning unwanted ships to the deeps to provide delightful habitats for all manner of sea creatures has rather caught on. The United States Navy has been ridding itself of all manner of ship in this so-called environmental way of late – a redundant aircraft carrier was so scuttled recently. It might be considered somewhat woke, but is not cheap, as the hull must be scrupulously cleaned of any materials which might choke a fish or poison the questing barnacle.
"Would it not be far more dignified and perhaps more lucrative for those who have lost money on the old ship during the last 55 years of inactivity, to flog her to one of the ecologically approved recycling yards on the Gulf Coast? You could retain some mementoes, like the splendid radar mast or one of the funnels (which purists considered rather too large)."

“Twist reality in any way, and you are perceiving destructively. Reality was lost through usurpation, which in turn produced tyranny. I told you that you are now restored to your former role in the plan of Atonement, but you must still choose freely to devote yourselves to the greater restoration. As long as a single slave remains to walk the earth, your release is not complete. Complete restoration of the Sonship is the only true goal of the miracle-minded.” Par 106

That Wasaline chooses Wenaas is based not only on the fact that we offer a well-adapted range for their working environment, but also on Wenaas' ESG work (Environmental – Social – Corporate Governance), which played an important role in the choice of supplier.
Even you can make a difference in your daily choices
How can we make a difference in our daily choices?
A majority of our crew's workwear comes from Wenaas Workwear AB. From every piece of clothing ordered, a small donation is made to Mercy Ships on our behalf.
Mercy Ships is an organization that provides health care services and training in developing countries. For example, the staff of the hospital ship Global Mercy operated on 2,300 persons and trained hundreds of health care staff during a recent visit to Sierra Leone.

"Every second counts, and too often, lives are lost because people don’t know what to do. But imagine—just imagine—if you knew how to respond. Imagine being the one who steps in and saves a life."
"CPR is a skill anyone can learn. It’s simple, but powerful. With it, you can double or even triple someone’s chance of survival. You don’t need medical training. You just need the courage to act."
"One action. One life saved. Be that person. Learn CPR today, because you never know when you might need to be a hero."

B Lab UK, the non profit organisation responsible for certifying B Corps, is updating its standards, which are designed to replace the flexible scoring system to assess and measure a company’s social and environmental impact.
According to the most recent draft of the B Corp certification standards, companies must achieve certain requirements across 10 key areas.
“The biggest change to the new standards for most B Corps is a move from the current framework, where companies have flexibility in how to achieve a verified 80-point score, to instead ensuring they meet specific requirements across different impact topics,” says a B Labs spokesperson.

Unlock Life-Changing Experiences for Our Students! 🌎✈️
Planning for the 3rd annual global service-learning and culture trip to the Dominican Republic in March 2025 for our 8th-grade students!
Why Your Support Matters:
This year, we have seen unprecedented interest from our students, especially those from low-income families. The cost per student is approximately $3,900, which can be prohibitive for some. We believe that no student should be denied this life-changing opportunity due to financial constraints. That’s where you come in!
Our Goal:
We are raising funds to cover the costs for students whose families qualify for free or reduced lunch. Your contribution will help ensure that all interested students can participate in this transformative experience.
The Impact:
Our previous trips, in October 2022 and January 2024, showcased the immense benefits of service learning. Students immersed themselves in the culture, language, and environment of the Dominican Republic, engaging in meaningful service projects and building a global perspective.
Hear From Our Students and Parents:
