MJ Drafting & Designs is an architectural drafting and design firm that offers various services including custom home design, renovations, and additions.

The document discusses ideas for designing the panels of a digipak album cover representing the four seasons - Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter. For Spring, the designer aims to feature a lush green area and sunny sky showing optimism. For Summer, a beach scene will portray warmth and relaxation. Autumn will show simple "autumn leaves" design centered around the CD. Winter aims to attract attention with a pristine snowy setting that allows space for song information. The designer also considers fonts that reflect power and authority for the album name "Kings" versus a more delicate font for the artist name.

Vicinity Jobs’ data includes more than three million 2023 OJPs and thousands of skills. Most skills appear in less than 0.02% of job postings, so most postings rely on a small subset of commonly used terms, like teamwork.
Laura Adkins-Hackett, Economist, LMIC, and Sukriti Trehan, Data Scientist, LMIC, presented their research exploring trends in the skills listed in OJPs to develop a deeper understanding of in-demand skills. This research project uses pointwise mutual information and other methods to extract more information about common skills from the relationships between skills, occupations and regions.
[4:55 p.m.] Bryan Oates
OJPs are becoming a critical resource for policy-makers and researchers who study the labour market. LMIC continues to work with Vicinity Jobs’ data on OJPs, which can be explored in our Canadian Job Trends Dashboard. Valuable insights have been gained through our analysis of OJP data, including LMIC research lead

"Does Foreign Direct Investment Negatively Affect Preservation of Culture in the Global South? Case Studies in Thailand and Cambodia."
Do elements of globalization, such as Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), negatively affect the ability of countries in the Global South to preserve their culture? This research aims to answer this question by employing a cross-sectional comparative case study analysis utilizing methods of difference. Thailand and Cambodia are compared as they are in the same region and have a similar culture. The metric of difference between Thailand and Cambodia is their ability to preserve their culture. This ability is operationalized by their respective attitudes towards FDI; Thailand imposes stringent regulations and limitations on FDI while Cambodia does not hesitate to accept most FDI and imposes fewer limitations. The evidence from this study suggests that FDI from globally influential countries with high gross domestic products (GDPs) (e.g. China, U.S.) challenges the ability of countries with lower GDPs (e.g. Cambodia) to protect their culture. Furthermore, the ability, or lack thereof, of the receiving countries to protect their culture is amplified by the existence and implementation of restrictive FDI policies imposed by their governments.
My study abroad in Bali, Indonesia, inspired this research topic as I noticed how globalization is changing the culture of its people. I learned their language and way of life which helped me understand the beauty and importance of cultural preservation. I believe we could all benefit from learning new perspectives as they could help us ideate solutions to contemporary issues and empathize with others.

U.S. stock index futures fell, taking a cue from European and Asian
markets, as worries over global growth prospects and the outcome of
Greece’s private-sector bond swap later this week weigh on sentiment.
There is no U.S. economic data on the docket today.
European stocks dropped, with banks and resource stocks among the
`largest detractors. A report released this morning showed a 0.3% Q/Q
contraction in the euro-area economy in Q4, confirming an initial estimate
published on February 15. Large declines in investment, exports and
consumer spending were to blame for the overall GDP contraction. Also
weighing on investors was a memo from the Institute of International
Finance that warned that a disorderly default would cause the euro zone
more than 1 trillion euros ($1.36 trillion) in damage, Reuters reported. The
report also stated that a default would likely force Italy and Spain to seek
aid to prevent being engulfed in the region’s debt crisis.
Private investors that have declared their participation in Greece’s debt
restructuring hold about 20% of the bonds involved in a swap, the creditors’
stering committee said yesterday. The goal of the swap, which runs
through March 8, is to reduce the amount of privately-held Greek debt by
53.5% and help secure Greece’s second rescue package.
Asian stocks fell sharply, with miners among the top declines, following
global markets lower on growth concerns. The Hang Seng shed 2.2%,
while the Shanghai Composite fell 1.4%. Japan’s Nikkei gave up a more
modest 0.6%.
North American Market Highlights & Headlines

Overseas and Overnight Markets
U.S. stock index futures are pointing to a higher open as traders' eye earnings and look
ahead to comments from the U.S. Federal Reserve later in the week. There are no major
economic data releases scheduled for today.
Asian markets closed in positive territory with an improved risk appetite, taking a cue
from the U.S. last week after markets climbed to new highs. Investors also shook off
geopolitical concerns as North Korea reportedly conducted another successful ballistic
missile test. Economic data in the region has also been relatively buoyant, with Japan's
economy expanding for the fourth straight quarter. Tokyo's Nikkei Index ended the
session with a 0.41% gain. Hong Kong's Hang Seng Index closed 0.58% higher, while
Shanghai's Stock Composite Index also posted a gain of 0.64%.
European markets are higher in afternoon trade, following today's general trend, as
investors watched another set of record closes on Wall Street to end last week. The pan-
European Euro Stoxx 600 was last trading approximately 0.60% higher.
Company Headlines
Bombardier Inc. (BBD.B-T) has filed a court injunction to stop Metrolinx, the Ontario
government's transit agency, from cancelling a $770M contract for 182 light-rail vehicles.
Metrolinx formally notified Bombardier in November of its intent to cancel the contract,
citing “significant quality and manufacturing issues.” Bombardier, on the other hand,
stated in its injunction filing that Metrolinx is responsible for the problems that have put
the project in jeopardy; “Since the contract was signed in 2010, Metrolinx has changed
the scope, the timelines, and the technical qualifications countless times”.
Canadian Natural Resources Ltd. (CNQ-T) was notified over the weekend by the
SISPOO oil workers union that its workers have extended a strike indefinitely at the
company’s Baobab and Espoir oil and gas fields in Ivory Coast. A 72-hour strike was
called early on Wednesday over the firing of workers and was extended on Friday after
the parties failed to reach an agreement. "As no solution is in sight, we hereby announce
the extension of the strike until the conflict is resolved," SISPOO said in a letter to the
company.
Restaurant Brands International Inc. (QSR-N), the owner of Burger King and Tim
Hortons, reported a higher-than-expected quarterly profit as comparable sales at its
burger chain topped estimates and costs fell. Total comparable sales at Burger King
rose 2.8 per cent in the fourth quarter ended Dec. 31, while total comparable sales at
Tim Hortons, which operates mainly in Canada, rose 0.2 per cent in the quarter. Total
costs at Restaurant Brands fell about 16 per cent to US$619.8 million. The company’s
net profit attributable to shareholders more than doubled to $118.4-million, or 50 cents
per share, from a year ago, when it took a $37-million charge for the merger of Burger
King and Tim Hortons.
