parent: Well, my house was ransacked by bears once. All they did was take food, but my husband swears that he
preacher: Oh my! Was the town guard able to find the culprits>
parent: Nope. We have no idea who it was. We thought about hiring a scryer, to see if magic might reveal them.
preacher: Ah yes, a wise course of action. Though I can see why you did not, anti-bear racism is far to prevalent these days, and those people have been discriminated against for far too long.
parent: That is true. Deep down, I feel like my husband is guilty of that, and just uses the break in as a rationalization.
preacher: Well, it may be worth enrolling your son in a bear-dance class. Allow your husband to experience the funner side of bear culture, and interact with normal bears, not just the ones who he hears about from the town crier.
parent: That is not a bad idea at all! I'll look into that.

#Person1#: Nothing. I'm just asking.

#Person1#: Who has a crush? !
#Person2#: Come on, Ted, don't be such a chicken. If you like her, you've got to tell her. Maybe she likes you.
#Person1#: Well, I don't have the guts to ask her out.
#Person2#: What're you so afraid of? Just tell her what you're feeling about her.
#Person1#: I'd totally die if she turned me down.

#Person1#: no-one really believes gossip columnists.

#Person1#: What are you reading, Bill?
#Person2#: It's this week New Scientist. Why?
#Person1#: I was just wondering. It looks interesting. But I've never actually read myself. It's for real scientists, or can ordinary people like me understand it?
#Person2#: Always for anyone, really. It usually has articles or stories about current affairs about science, as well as papers about new development in research. I'm reading about new telephone that allows you to see the person you are speaking to as well as see him.
#Person1#: Oh, I heard about it. Is it on the market yet? Can I buy one?
#Person2#: No. Not this one. But the company has made other models to try on business. This one is special because its color and image is moving.
#Person1#: Oh, that's interesting.
#Person2#: You see the first video phones. That's what they are called. They made in Japan. But they can only show still black and white image. So this video phone is much better than that. Mind you, I'm not sure I want one, would you?
#Person1#: Well, no, I don't think a word. I bet it costs a lot of money. Did it say how much it costs?
#Person2#: Yes. The yearly black and white one costs several hundreds pounds. But one in the story is about to cost several thousands pounds.
#Person1#: Hmm, what does anybody want one, do you think?
#Person2#: Business organizations that need frequent contact overseas want it. It's like a face-to-face conversation, so maybe a lot of overseas travels can be avoided.
#Person1#: Yes, I suppose so. | Bill is reading New Scientist and introduces it to #Person1# that everyone can understand it. Bill tells that this one is special because its color and image are moving so #Person1# cannot buy it on market. Then they discuss the first video phones about the price and who wants it. |
#Person1#: Hey, Leo. How come you look so terrible? What's going'on?
#Person2#: You can say that again. Susan'brother dropped in from out of town, so I offered to put him up for a few days. But he's driving me up a wall. This guy is bottomless pit.
#Person1#: How gross! I can't handle people like that. Does he at least give you a hand around the house?
#Person2#: He doesn't lift a finger! I bend over backwards cleaning up all day and he sleeps in until noon.
#Person1#: Man, what a freeloader. You better do something quick or he'll never hit the road. After all, he's got it made in the shade here.
#Person2#: You think he might stay even longer? !
#Person1#: Now, don't go losing your temper. If you tolerated all you can, just kick him out. . . but do it with gloves. I know! Tell him a white lie like you're getting the house fumigated!
#Person2#: That wouldn't be a lie! | Leo is not in a good mood because Susan's brother has been staying at his house without doing anything. #Person1# suggests Leo tell Susan's brother a white lie to kick him out. |

Ms. Jag Sahota: Madam Chair that simply is not good enough This is something that has been brought to the governments attention for months now and still nothing has been done These families deserve answers now Had the government conducted a GBA analysis they would have discovered this prior to rolling out inadequate programs for women Why was not a GBA conducted ?
Hon. Carla Qualtrough: I can assure everyone in this House that we are very aware and deeply concerned about the disproportionate impact of this pandemic on women and girls We are working hard to ensure that everyone has the supports they need As we move forward we are as I said earlier taking into consideration improvements to the EI system the wage subsidy and the future of CERB All these play together as we work to provide a comprehensive forwardlooking support package for Canadians

Ms. Jag Sahota: Madam Chair it is a simple question and I will ask again Why was GBA analysis not conducted for the COVID19 relief programs ?
Hon. Carla Qualtrough: Madam Chair as I said the needs of women and girls were taken into consideration every step of the way from the beginning as we worked to provide a comprehensive suite of support for Canadians across the country
Ms. Jag Sahota: Madam Chair if that is the case then how did you miss these gaps ?
Hon. Carla Qualtrough: Madam Chair I can assure the member that we did not miss gaps We from the beginning looked to support as many people as possible As we moved from supporting workers to supporting students to supporting seniors and today to supporting people with disabilities we are ensuring that everyone is covered by our measures As this pandemic evolves and as we move into economic recovery of course we are going to make sure that women in particular are supported in our measures
Ms. Jag Sahota: Madam Chair the minister needs to take the responsibility here These women and families deserve answers This is a real problem happening right now You said you would conduct GBA analysis on all policy measures moving forward Where is the assistance for these expectant mothers ?
Hon. Carla Qualtrough: Madam Chair I take responsibility I am very proud of how many senior women we have supported with our measures how many women received the GST credit how many women who lead families received the CCB onetime payment and how many women with disabilities will receive the disability support if we have allparty consent today
The Acting Chair (Mrs. Alexandra Mends): Ms Sahota may I remind you to please direct your questions through the chair ?
Ms. Jag Sahota: Madam Chair I will ask again hoping for a straightforward answer from this minister Why was a GBA analysis not conducted on the COVID19 relief programs ?
Hon. Carla Qualtrough: My goodness Madam Chair I will say again how important it was from the very beginning that we took into account the needs of women and girls and as we move forward into the economic recovery phase how completely we make women at the core of every decision
The Acting Chair (Mrs. Alexandra Mends): Ms Sahota you have 15 seconds
Ms. Jag Sahota: Madam Chair my question is still not answered She keeps repeating the same answer I will keep asking the same question hoping for a straightforward answer Why was a GBA analysis not conducted on the COVID19 relief programs ?
The Acting Chair (Mrs. Alexandra Mends): Honourable minister you have five seconds
Hon. Carla Qualtrough: Madam Chair we have taken into account the needs of women and girls from the beginning and we will continue to do so | A committee member repeatedly asked why a GBA+ analysis was not conducted on the COVID-19 relief programs since this would have prevented rolling out inadequate programs for women. The quizzed party responded by pointing out to their successful efforts with some of the women and stressing that women were at the core of their decision making. |
bandit: I don't mean you any harm... unless you oppose my robbery of you!
people saved by the paladinsa: Please bandit. We don't have much gold. You should be going after the rich folk in the village! Their fortunes are massive and ours are so little. If you rob us we will have to alert the Paladins!
bandit: Well... only if you assist me on an operation? Otherwise, I will rob you and/or kill you!
people saved by the paladinsa: Who are you trying to rob? We are not strong but we are many and will help where we can.

Hefin David AM: So given the point you have made about grandparents and family would not it be sensible then to offer a subsidy to grandparents to provide this kind of care ? Well through some kind of analysis of that
Huw Irranca-Davies AM: Well we do not think so and there are good reasons behind this
Hefin David AM: Is it because you say that they would not be registered as carers for their own family member ?
Huw Irranca-Davies AM: Yes but there is a deeper reason behind that registration as well The childcare offer is not only to just provide childcare it is the wider aspects that come with this This childcare offer ties into the foundation years offer There is an element of education linked to the childcare offer—there is that 10 hours of the early education foundation years as well The two tie together So there is an issue here with quality about socialisation and how children learn in an environment as opposed to purely—as great as all our grandparents and aunts and uncles are—simply childminding That is one important distinction So the focus of this scheme is very much on registered licensed providers which could be by the way—because we do have them and we are discussing this at the moment internally and with the Professional Association for Childcare and Early Years and others—grandparents who are actually registered and inspected by the care inspectorate ? We are having those discussions
Hefin David AM: How many of them are there ?
Huw Irranca-Davies AM: We do not think there is a huge number but we are trying to bottom this out at the moment We have not got the exact number but we do not think they are huge numbers but there are in our constituencies registered licensed inspected grandparents who look after other peoples children in a little group of four or five or six or seven but also their own grandchildren
Hefin David AM: So they are a kind of grandparents club
Huw Irranca-Davies AM: Yes Now that I would say to you—and I know that Darren raised this on the floor yesterday as well—is markedly different in the nature of it because it is registered and licensed than simply informal grandparents or aunts or uncles I say that as well because we also get people who will say to us I do not want to be paid for looking after my grandchildren I look after my grandchildren because I look after them | Huw Irranca-Davies emphasized that the focus was on registered licensed providers, for the childcare offer wanted to have a higher quality and provided wider aspects than single childcare. But some grandparents had been registered, licensed, and inspected and they looked after both their grandchildren and other people's children in a little group. |
