Subject: Genderless pronouns

Hi Bill,
I also grew up with they referring to multiple people. However, I view using the pronouns that the individual prefers as being polite and I was raised to be polite (I hold doors for others, etc...). Also, their choice of a pronoun other then she/he seems like it's important to them and once I know their preference it doesn't take much effort to respect their choice.

Bill Lynn 2025.04.11 re Genderless Pronouns

I have trouble with use of the word They to designate one person. For me, They is genderless but it also designates more than one person.
I therefore propose the following genderless singular pronouns:
    shehe*
    herhim
    herhis
    hershis
*"She" includes she and he, but "she" is generally thought of as feminine.

Any comment?

I wanted to comment on my disappointment that Marta’s lovely Easter/Spring display has been tampered with to the point it was removed from the lobby today.

It is disheartening to acknowledge that even a lobby with surveillance cameras is not enough of a deterrent to stop tenants or visitors from taking what doesn’t belong to them.

Apologies Marta , on behalf of the decent tenants and guests who appreciate your efforts. Thank you for trying to brighten the lobby for us.

Hi Bill;
Pls post this message to the others re: this other scam.

I first received this scam message among my texts, in Oct./23, during a 3 week stay in hospital and at least 7 times since, sometimes as a text, sometimes as an email. Being particularly vulnerable post surgery, I burst into tears as the nurses came running to see what was the matter. This first of eight similar messages said: « Hi Mom. this is my work phone number because my phone broke /I lost my phone/someone stole my phone… »(these are 3 of the scammers’ variations over time). The reason I was so upset the first time was that my son Christopher had just died on March 20th of that year. What was also very disturbing, because it rang true, was that Christopher often had a variety of phone challenges.

I slammed the phone down without a word. Had I engaged the person in conversation, he probably would have asked me for money in order to « fix »or « replace » the phone. I have blocked him each time and reported him. I don’t know how he could find me. I might post 4-5 random comments a year on facebook, but that is the sum total of my social media involvement. I have blocked him and reported him but the police tell me that they can’t do anything.

I have heard of similar cases across Canada.
Just a heads up folks.

Diane Petryshyn lived many years with us at Wynford Tower. She was a dear friend to many of us and we all spend many nice times together. Summertime in our back and she was there with us and her dog Wesley.

She moved after her retirement 2.5 years ago to Collingwood where she owned a house and was very happy there.

This happened to my son in law who is excellent at fraud detection. Please post as it’s good info to have. It was sent by my daughter.

*****************
So Paul got what he said was the most convincing fraud call last night. Someone called saying they were from the bank. Confirmed his name, address, postal code. They said they detected someone trying to buy an air canada flight on the card and declined it. He asked the guy to send him a text to confirm identity. He said he would but when nothing came Paul said I’m on my way out and will call you back.

He called the actual bank number and sure enough there was nothing. But he said the guy sounded so convincing and knew all his details.

So even more crucial to always hang up if someone calls no matter what they say and call your bank back at the number you know to be theirs. The call even appeared to come from the bank’s actual number

More Scams to Watch Out For

As noted by the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre, there are a number of scams which are frequently affecting Ontarians at this time. Learn more about what to watch out for:
    1. Spear Phishing Scams: These highly-targeted scams are often a convincing attempt to trick an individual or business into sending a payment, divulging sensitive data or downloading malware.

    2. Taxpayer Scams: Prevalent during tax season, scammers may claim to be the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) and use threats and other manipulative tactics to scare consumers into sending funds to rectify an "issue" with their taxes.

    3. Mystery Shopper Scams: With these scams, a fraudster claims you have been selected as a mystery shopper or quality control officer and given a fraudulent cheque to deposit along with instructions for items to purchase.

Subject: Fwd: Another Opinion on the "Orange Monkey

I know a little something that so many do not appreciate about Donald, but that those of us who worked with him in the financial services game have known for many decades—LONG before he ever made a run at politics.

His stated motives rarely reveal his true agenda. His showmanship and charisma bedazzles the uninformed, which is exactly how he likes it.

He never signed a contract or met an agreement he wouldn’t violate or wriggle out of if it suited his hidden agenda. He never met an investor whose purse he didn’t consider his own in some strategic way. And he never met a human being he wouldn’t screw in order to advance or satisfy himself.

If you want to understand his beef with Panama, don’t look at the canal to which he now points. Look at Trump enterprises and their fraught financial and criminal relationship with Panama, and look to the Russian oligarchs who bought condos in his Panama Tower.

If you want to understand his fixation with Gaza, don’t look at the Palestinian or Israeli people; look at the real estate value he now perceives that Gaza holds, and he’d like to unlock.

If you want to understand his insane, obsessive beef with energy renewable windmills, don’t look at the wind energy aspect; look at his beef with Scotland over his golf course and the nearby windmills that damaged his idea of its aesthetics.

If you want to understand his irrational hatred of Obama, don’t look at the policies of the Obama administration; look to the annual press corp dinner where Obama poked fun at him and bruised his ego. If you want to understand his demonization of Democrats, look not to Democratic social policy, but to the fact they didn’t want him to run under color of their party.

If you want to understand his hatred of “immigrants” don’t look to the actual contributions and challenges related to immigration, but to his own germophobia and personal disgust for all things “dirty and brown.”

What he does SO masterfully, as many sociopaths do, is figure out how to align, however temporarily, his own personal agenda with the drives of those he can then USE to help him execute it. And the GOP fell right in line with that abusive strategy.

The GOP now looks much like a battered wife who would LOVE to quit Trump, but who also knows their financial security, personal comfort, and social status would collapse if they ran away. And they fear they won’t get much sympathy or support from the people who tried to warn them not to marry the dude—a serial, liar, cheater, thief, sadist, and a generally Bad Person.

Many of the GOP politicians today are busily masking their own abuse from the general public; at some point, however, as they watch their power continue to erode, their reputations get smashed, and themselves get blamed for the extensive abuse they now suffer, something’s gonna give.

I don’t know what it is, but every bone in my body FEELS an energetic convergence heading toward a massive, MASSIVE explosion—coming soon.

I can understand no one confronting them. I know John and I wouldn’t because you never know if they are armed or if they are tenants.

We could exercise caution and TRY to not let anyone piggyback behind us but again you never know if they are residents. I hope that the pictures are enough to catch them.

Now more than ever with people getting cheques in the mail and them accessing the mailbox and even the package drop off boxes area, is and should be a major concern.

Everyone should be careful

The photos below from surveillance videos show a pair of thieves who spent from noon until 9 PM Monday 17 February 2025 (Family Day) in the lobby and the lobby lounge. At one point the lady rummaged through Marta's desk and stole some of Marta's personal property.
What is surprising is that a number of Wynford Tower residents passed through the lobby while the thieves were doing their mischief and no one paid any attention.
It seems that we are not a suspicious lot, but perhaps we need to develop a bit more of a suspicious attitude when faced with such a blatant intrusion.

Hi Bill,

FYI - there is a sit-down digital weight scale at the pharmacy in the Great Canadian Superstore, and at Shoppers Drug Mart on Lawrence near Don Mills (near the pharmacy at the back). I have used these and they are accurate with my doctor's office scale. The pharmacist can show you how to use it.

These would probably be more accurate than anyone's apartment scale. We have wavy floors, which affects scale accuracy.

Thanks for letting me know. I would consider taking this on if anyone else in the building was willing to step up and help. It would also depend on whether the Salvation Army contact in our building would be willing to make the delivery, as I don't have any connection to the Salvation Army or any women's shelters.

Anyone interested can text message me at 416-459-9750. Maybe we can do this good deed together.

Annie, Sheila and I are not going to organize the “purse campaign “ this spring. Perhaps some one else can take on this task.

Perhaps you would post this for other tenants to see.

Over the holidays I experienced an unfortunate situation relating to outside parking spots rented to tenants.

Friends visited me on a Saturday evening and were here for 2 hours. Unfortunately I was not specific about 'Visitor Spots only' and my friends did not realize that the other spots belonged to tenants (they are new to Canada and live in a building that only has underground parking for everyone including visitors).

Needless to say they parked where they should not have. The result was a hefty parking ticket issued by Toronto police and a threat of being towed in future.

I certainly respect the tenants who park outside and probably face many challenges when multiple infractions occur. Tho I do not know the party who rents the spot I apologize to them.

Apparently the tenants themselves are tasked with reporting illegal parking to police and also have the right to call a tow truck.

I send this information via this newsletter so the tenants of #35 might be aware of and understand the process in place.

I, for one, will certainly be diligent in double checking with my visitors when they arrive.
