Ashton College will be closed for Victoria Day in Canada: May 20th, 2024
Why do Canadians celebrate Victoria Day?
• Birthday: Queen Victoria’s birthday. She reigned for 63 years!
• Honouring History: Queen Victoria's reign coincided with Canada's Confederation in 1867, earning her the nickname "Mother of Confederation."
• Unofficial Summer Kickoff: Victoria Day often falls on the long weekend before summer. Many Canadians see it as a time to fire up the BBQ, head to the cottage, or enjoy some outdoor activities!
Do all provinces and territories recognize Victoria Day as a statutory holiday?
No. There are four Canadian provinces that don't celebrate Victoria Day in the same way as the rest of Canada:
• Nova Scotia: Victoria Day isn't a statutory holiday in Nova Scotia. They enjoy the long weekend, but it's not an official provincial holiday.
• New Brunswick: New Brunswick doesn't consider Victoria Day a paid public holiday.
• Prince Edward Island: Prince Edward Island has Victoria Day listed as a holiday in provincial legislation, but it's not a statutory holiday with guaranteed time off work.
• Quebec: Quebec renamed the holiday "Journée nationale des Patriotes" (National Patriotes Day) in 2002 to commemorate the Quebec Rebellion of 1837-38.
It was great to deliver a brand new program this week to year 9 students at QE2 High School. As always, the students impressed us with their innovative ideas, confidence to try new things and teamwork. The funny thing is that I always come away feeling like it’s the other way around in that the student’s have taught me something. #continouslearning#futuregeneration#skillbuilding#teamwork#juniorachievement
Eco-Tourism Challenge at Queen Elizabeth 11 High School
Around the world, people are becoming more aware of the effects of climate change on our environment and want to make a positive impact on the world for future generations. Part of that is people have been choosing holidays that have focused on helping to improve the areas they are visiting or taking advantage of the natural habitat without leaving a negative footprint.
Today the Junior Achievement team spent the morning with Year 9 students QE11, who were set a challenge to develop a short break to the Isle of Man that can accommodate these holidaymakers while either improving or having minimal impact on our environment.
The students came up with some great ideas whilst at the same time developing their key transferable skills including teamwork, problem-solving, resilience and communication skills.
A special shout-out to all our amazing volunteers who donated their time to work with the students in the classroom.

November is National American Indian Heritage Month.
Also known as Native American Heritage Month, there are a number of ways to commemorate the event at your workplace, including celebrating the Native American heritage of your own team members or hosting educational events for your employees at work. You could also seek out Native American-owned businesses in your community and share the info with your team.
Unsure what would resonate best with your staff? Ask your Native American employees to help you plan!

#EmbracingtheFuture: Princess Leonor Swears Allegiance to the Spanish Constitution
Today, we witnessed a defining moment in Spain’s modern history. Princess Leonor swore allegiance to the Spanish Constitution, symbolizing her unwavering commitment to our nation and its core democratic values.
Her oath to the Constitution isn't just a ceremonial act. It's a testament to Spain's progress. Leonor’s pledge emphasizes the nation's drive towards inclusivity, modernity, and the significance of evolving leadership.
The sight of a young, well-prepared woman ready to step forward resonates deeply in our present times. As we anticipate a reign under a Queen in the near future, it serves as a powerful reminder of the strides women have made and continue to make on the global stage.
At Reti España. Government Relations & Public Affairs we celebrate this day and the promise it holds. 🇪🇸

CRYPTOCURRENCY & REYGITONIUM-G
TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:
I ABSOLUTELY SEE NOTHING WRONG WITH CRYPTOCURRENCY: REYGITONIUM-G
I CAN UNDERSTAND WHY THE INFANT DEMOCRATIC-CAPITALISTIC MINDS OF TODAY BLAME USA GOVERNMENT. THEN IS ANY GOVERNMENT TO BE BLAMED FOR HOMELESS PROBLEMS PLAGUING THE WORLD.? NO. GOD KNOWS HEADACHES USA GOVERNMENT HAVE WITH THE FOREIGN AFFAIRS. THE NEW WORLD PRACTICALLY SHOCK TO WITNESS. PEOPLE ONLY WORKING TOGETHER FOR A COMMON GOAL.
"IN THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS." THUS DOESN'T THAT ALSO INCLUDE THE HOMELESS.
THE HOMELESS ARE OUT THERE.
ARE YOU.?
HOMELESS.. AN OPPORTUNITY MISUNDERSTOOD.
The modern economic system is a market economy, which is a capitalist economy where people, not the government--NOT THE GOVERNMENT--own most businesses. In a capitalist economy, prices allocate capital and labor between competing uses, and capital assets like factories, mines, and railroads can be privately owned and controlled.

EXAMPLE, IF YOU NEED TO RAISE MONEY FOR ANY REASON OR MORE SO LETS SAY THE "HOMELESS" PROBLEM WHICH IS BELIEVED TO BE TIME & MONEY CONSUMING BUT IN ONE DIRECTION TOWARD THE HOMELESS.
HOWEVER CRYPTOCURRENCY CAN POSSIBLE ALLOWS AN EXPENDITURE OF CURRENCY TO BENEFIT ALL WHO USES THE CRYPTO & REGARDLESS OF HOW IT'S CONSUMED.
THEREFORE IF A CRYPTO HOMELESS CURRENCY REYGITONIUM-G EXISTED IT'S MORE HIGHLY LIKELY THAT THE HOMELESS PROBLEM CAN BE VANQUISHED BECAUSE CURRENCY-FINANCES IT'S ALWAYS AVAILABLE TO BE TAPPED INTO FOR HOMELESS RESOLUTIONS.

OR CONTINUE HIDING THE HOMELESS WHEN A POLITICAL LEADER VISITS AMERICA.
CLOSING COMMENT:
THE DAMNEDEST CRAZIEST FUNNIEST EMBARRASSING ABOUT THE HOMELESS CHAOS IS ANY EXCUSE AS TO WHY HOMELESS EXIST. HENCEFORTH CONSIDER USA TRILLIONS IN DEBT & 6,120 HOSPITALS SCATTERED AROUND THE USA & MANY COUNTRIES ASKING FOR FOREIGN AID IN THE TRILLIONS & YOU TALKING EXCUSES.
MEANWHILE WE WANT TO SETTLE HUMANITY ON OTHER PLANETS.

May 8. May-8. Mate. 🤝
Today is the 8th of May, and while you might not recognise the date (and might not have any idea what it’s symbolic of), we’re here to tell you that today IS pretty important for some of us.
Suggested as a better, more appropriate and respectful day to celebrate ‘Australia Day’ (which we, here at EVER, do not celebrate on the 26th of January), the 8th of May is a day to focus on friendship and connection.
If you, like us, don’t celebrate the 26th of January, and are looking for a different day to love our country and the people who live here, it might be worth considering May 8.
