We are looking for people born between 1946-1965 to take part in a study of leisure, work, and life transitions.

As a participant in this study, you will be asked to participate in an online blog with others in your generation by sharing your experiences and perceptions of leisure, work, and your decision not to retire. Your participation would involve 4 sessions per year for three years, each of which is approximately two weeks. You will be asked to log on to the blog about 5 times in each session. You can create new posts and/or comment on the posts of others. If you volunteer to participate, you will be contacted by a researcher to help you set up an account and get comfortable navigating the blog. In appreciation for your time, you will receive a $50.00 gift card annually.

YES Canada is seeking host families in the Renfrew County area to host international high school students from France and Italy for a 2 or 3 month program beginning in April 2021. Becoming a host family is a great way to experience another culture at home and to have a truly enriching experience.
International students plan their study abroad program months in advance and pursue the experience to learn about our culture and language and to build lifelong relationships with their host family and peers while attending high school. Students have been accepted to study at a local high school and continue to be committed to experience their study abroad opportunity and are aware that their program will take place amid a different environment in light of Covid-19.
We have adapted our programming to adjust to the new environment for students and host families presented by Covid-19. Guidance will be provided to students and host families throughout the process both prior to arrival and throughout the program and our team are available to answer questions and provide information. Students are also required to comply with all Government of Canada and Public Health requirements during Covid-19 including a 14-day quarantine upon arrival and testing both prior to departure and upon arrival in Canada.
We believe that purposeful travel is an important part of what connects and unites us, and the exchange program can continue to build a universal understanding and connection in these unique times. We know that the host family experience is key to providing an enriching cultural and language experience, and provides for a comforting home away from home to students embarking on this journey and builds lifelong bonds.
Why Host? As a host family, you can contribute to this experience for the student and also have your own rewarding experience. Not only do you and your family get to learn about a different culture, you also get to share yours!
We ask that host families provide 3 meals a day, a safe nurturing environment and welcome the student into your family’s daily lifestyle. Host families are compensated with a monthly stipend for doing so. If you are interested in sharing in this experience and hosting an international high school student or would like to learn more about our homestay program and how we are responding to the impacts of Covid-19, please contact YES Canada at the email address or phone number below:

Hello I am living in my vehicle at the moment with my dog it is absolutely freezing I've been struggling to find housing that will accept me and my dog as he is quite large a very good well-behaved friendly dog!!
I ain't moved back into the Vancouver area in March as last year just as everything was hitting the phone with covid-19 it has been nothing but a struggle finding any type of housing that's affordable in my price range which is not very much as I'm on disability PWD and or allowing my dog. He's definitely part of the family my best friend I could never see myself getting rid of him at all whatsoever I don't know what I would do without him.
So I run out of options and I'm freezing in my car so I decided to take a leap and put it couple add on Kijiji and other platforms. Trying to look for help within the community I'm praying to God this which is somebody who has a kind heart and was able to help in any of the ways possible below I want to thank you ahead of time for reading my post I'm taking the time out of your day to reply.
So because I am living in my vehicle gas is an extremely large cost 99% of my income that comes in every month goes to my gas tank to keep me warm throughout the day as you know it's freezing right now.. I have never ever been in this position before in my life it's extremely difficult and very frustrating I even turned to my disability office for help they pretty much ignored me and told me because I've been struggling for more than one month that it is no longer a emergency it's not unexpected because it's been over a month but I've been living in my vehicle ..so gas is extremely important..
Next would be any type all donations regarding warm clothing or warm blankets as I mentioned above it is extremely cold right now any type of financial help towards any of these things would be great either in gift cards or even cash donations forgot this is the last thing I'm asking for is cash I would actually much preferred gift cards or what not if possible maybe that way I won't feel so horrible for asking for help.
And now the big one. I'm hoping that somebody they have a travel trailer pull behind camper that is free hopefully for you even at extremely low cost. Now being extremely low cost I would have to make arrangements for payments so it might take a little while as I am on disability and I don't get very much at all for support.
Was hoping to get a travel trailer pull behind something not too big as I would like to pull it with my vehicle would be ideal..
I just wanted to put this out there I am extremely uncomfortable with posting this add on Kijiji is very unfamiliar to me I would never see myself doing this in the past but I've come to the point where I'm struggling so really and definitely need some assistance so I thought I would turn to my community and deal with my uncomfortable feelings regarding asking for help.
I am extremely nervous I am second-guessing myself for you posting this had online I'm very independent usually I have my ducks in a row I'm not too sure what happened along the way here but nobody will rent to me with my dog and an affordable price that I can afford long-term.
Thank you again for taking the time out of your day to read my post I hope you can find it in your heart to be able to help me in any type of way possible mentioned above would be wonderful. Please stay safe regards to covid-19 outbreak.. God bless you
Thank you again for taking the time to read my post if you have any more questions or need more information please feel free to contact me back on Kijiji I am not going to leave my actual information or name because once I wanted to be confidential + 2 I have been getting severely weird messages that are extremely inappropriate what you contact me through here I will be able to assess the situation and we could continue from there thank you so much again for your time

Study Title: How do you feel about Covid-19?
Eligibility Requirements: Seeking individuals who are 17 years or older who can read and write well in English to partake in a two-part study. This study examines the psychological and behavioral responses to Covid-19 and examining the potential benefits of expressive writing on processing and coping with challenges posed by Covid-19.
Study description: The objective of this two-phase study is to examine the relationship between personality characteristics and life circumstances on coping responses to the 2019 Coronavirus (Covid-19). For phase 1, participants will complete an online questionnaire. The online questionnaire will ask questions about participants’ current life circumstances (e.g., employment status and type, how they are currently affected by Covid-19), their mental health status (e.g., anxiety, depression), how they cope with negative life events or challenges, and how they feel about the future. The second phase of the study will consist of completing daily online expressive writing activities for fourteen consecutives days. Participants will be asked to reflect on things that occurred earlier that day, while following guides to help them reflect on these events. The second phase of the study will also consist of completing three follow-up online questionnaires (2 weeks, 1 month, and 3 months after completing the writing program). Enrollment in phase 2 of the study requires the completion of the online questionnaire for phase 1. If participants are interested in enrolling in phase 2, they will have the opportunity to provide us with their email address to commence phase 2. This study has received ethical approval by the ethics board at the University of Ottawa.
Duration: The first phase of the study will take approximately 30-45 minutes to complete. For the second phase of the study, each writing entry will take approximately 10-15 minutes to complete with the exception of the first session, which will take approximately 15-20 minutes to complete. Each follow-up survey will take approximately 30-40 minutes to complete.
Benefits: The opportunity to engage in self-reflection and learn techniques that could help process and cope with challenges caused by Covid-19.
Compensation: The opportunity to win one of four 50$ money orders. Each writing session completed will correspond to the number of chances you will have to win one of four money prizes in a draw.
Contact: If participants have any questions about our research, they are encouraged to contact the research assistant (Kheana Barbeau, kbarb006@uottawa.ca).

YES Canada is seeking host families in the Renfrew County area to host international high school students from France and Italy for a 2 or 3 month program beginning in April 2021. Becoming a host family is a great way to experience another culture at home and to have a truly enriching experience.
International students plan their study abroad program months in advance and pursue the experience to learn about our culture and language and to build lifelong relationships with their host family and peers while attending high school. Students have been accepted to study at a local high school and continue to be committed to experience their study abroad opportunity and are aware that their program will take place amid a different environment in light of Covid-19.
We have adapted our programming to adjust to the new environment for students and host families presented by Covid-19. Guidance will be provided to students and host families throughout the process both prior to arrival and throughout the program and our team are available to answer questions and provide information. Students are also required to comply with all Government of Canada and Public Health requirements during Covid-19 including a 14-day quarantine upon arrival and testing both prior to departure and upon arrival in Canada.
We believe that purposeful travel is an important part of what connects and unites us, and the exchange program can continue to build a universal understanding and connection in these unique times. We know that the host family experience is key to providing an enriching cultural and language experience, and provides for a comforting home away from home to students embarking on this journey and builds lifelong bonds.
Why Host?
As a host family, you can contribute to this experience for the student and also have your own rewarding experience. Not only do you and your family get to learn about a different culture, you also get to share yours!We ask that host families provide 3 meals a day, a safe nurturing environment and welcome the student into your family’s daily lifestyle. Host families are compensated with a monthly stipend for doing so. If you are interested in sharing in this experience and hosting an international high school student or would like to learn more about our homestay program and how we are responding to the impacts of Covid-19, please contact YES Canada at the email address or phone number below:

Psychology researchers are interested in examining different motivations that people have for consenting to sexual situations during which they engage in sexual compliance - undesired but consensual sexual activity. Again, this involves situations where you agreed to participate (consented) to sexual activity, despite not desiring it. Those who have not ever been sexually compliant can still participate in this study. Participation will require answering some questions about yourself (e.g., demographic questions such as your age, ethnicity, and sexual orientation), about your personality, and about your sexual history and experiences. This study will take approximately 30 minutes of your time.
If you are at least 16 years of age please complete our ANONYMOUS and CONFIDENTIAL online survey to share your experiences! Access the confidential link by visiting https://tinyurl.com/sexual-compliance-study
