The tools were supposed to free us up. Instead, they’ve created new pressures. AI writing assistants, learning management systems, digital gradebooks—they promise efficiency but often deliver bureaucracy wrapped in a slick interface. The Creativity Drain Teachers are spending hours learning new platforms, troubleshooting tech issues, and yes, running student work through an AI detector to check for generated content.

Moving house is one of the most disruptive, exhausting, and emotionally charged events most Canadians will ever experience. A 2024 Abacus Data survey of 2,000 Ontario adults ranked it third on the lifetime stress scale — behind only the death of a loved one and divorce. In Richmond Hill Ontario, where York Region recorded 22,487 residential moves in the last 12 months alone (York Region Planning & Economic Development, Q3 2025), that stress is magnified tenfold by a combination of steep glacial hills, narrow historic streets, brutal Canadian winters, and an incredibly diverse housing stock: century-old Edwardians in Mill Pond…
