I’ve been battling my ex for almost a year now to get the (rural) house sold.&nbsp; I had it listed last May and she refused to sign the list price.&nbsp; I’m taking her to court on the 12th with a motion to sell. This motion has been on the go for a number of months now.&nbsp; It’s been brutal.

I will then move into the big city somewhere: probably Kanata.

Congrats on the job, and I hate to nitpick, but it’s spelled “Canada”. It’s probably the weird accent that confused you, eh? 😛

Hate to burst your nit-pick bubble, but Kanata is a suburb of Ottawa:

As of 2021, Kanata had an urban population of 137,118. Before it was amalgamated into Ottawa in 2001, it was one of the fastest-growing cities in Canada and the fastest-growing community in Eastern Ontario. Located just to the west of the National Capital Commission Greenbelt, it is one of the largest of several communities that surround central Ott...
