TO THE ATTENTION OF THE UNDERSIGNED, i.e., myself and TO WHOM IT MAY INTEREST (read at own risk, reading level: mature grown ups only)
March 12 of 2026: went outdoors for walk around the neighbourhood and some grocery, it was a bit chilli, did not go far and went back to my apartment. BMO bank was holding two debit card payment transactions, a bit strange for me.
March 11 of 2026: bought an app from Google app store, made a quick trip to BMO smyth Rd quite far from my apartment, bought some OTC vitamins and soar throat lozenges from Rexall in the neighour_hood around 18h00 and back in my apartment, prepared my own meal for dine-in. Freezing rain was declining and surfaces were not as slippery as earlier in the after noon due to slight warming up.
March 11 of 2026: went to downtown for some banking needs, bought coffee from Lyon Station shops in the basement of Marriott & Delta Hotel, OC transpo LRT “O-train” was having some difficulty today (Bayview station West bound and PIMISI station East bound) since this morning in both directions, Hurdman station stairs to the platforms were seen closed by a yellow line, I exited the station, walked to a stop outside the station (since there was no taxi available) to take a route 48 back to the building where I live in my apartment. Earlier in the morning, it started raining with wind, which later on turned into freezing rain, kind of slippery, decided not to go out for dinner tonight, city transit issues and freezing rain issues, better to remain indoors.
March 10 of 2026: stepped out of my apartment to go to downtown fir coffee, from there went to a holiday Inn for some freshly prepared fries with a glass of juice. was back in my apartment around 15h30.
March 09 of 2026: Troy fire safety group was in the building today as per the posters displayed in the building about their services. went to buy few food essentials from a store near Adonis via Greeboro station, Mooney’s Bay station, Hurdman station, Cyrville station and back to my apartment.
March 09 of 2026: a pre recorded message on a bank’s phone line heard was about fraud prevention month. Which I find unnecessary. Banks make frequent mistakes in handling account holders transactions which can be a kind of frauds, systems are full of technological bugs, so instead of checking or alerting account holders, banks should consider to self evaluate their own bahiour towards these issues as well. Any attempt by the banks staff to quiz, ask questions about transactions without proper preparation with the intentions to create a doubt about the ownership of the account itself is a malicious intent and fraud. Before asking such questions about transactions banks should switch to passbook system. In the old days passbook used to show deposit and withdrawals etc. but not every single transaction. Retail transactions can be made by cash so will not be registered in the computer, only deposits or withdrawals or bill payments will be recorded in the computers. Authorities should look into these issues and come up with more solid and concrete methods, although (shutup obey) ID should be sufficient. At least I donot memorize transactions for quizing purpose. It was banks regulatory organizations responsibility keep monitoring such issues. It is optional to use bankcard for retail transactions, what would they quiz on if there were no retail transactions. During quizing session by wrong responses they can not establish that account was someones else’s asset especially a chequing account can not be sold to some one else for profit by such fraudulant tricks, perhaps some other investment assets may he sold to a new interested buyer but the institution is legally required to pay back the investment and gains as per the agreement to the original owner. Something to think about.
March 09 of 2026: a quick grocery trip to a store near St-Laurent Mall, paid as usual i.e. by cash + digital wallet.
March 09 of 2026: women and school going children were seen blocking the middle isle in the buses with over size bulging back packs/bags without realizing that it causes inconvenience for other riders, and since it happens on their bback they do not know the size of bulk on their back, or perhaps they do it on purpose to tangle with others on the bus. OC transpo should monitor such oversize back packs or women’s bags to avoid conflicts.
March 09 of 2026: Early morning received a notification from Revenue Canada regarding NOA for the tax year 2025, extracted from my login file, but it got a bit garbled because it was in html format. I will look into it future next week.
March 08 of 2026: bought my meal at Craft restaurant, paid cash, went to downtown, walked around a bit before taking a bus back. Mixing coffee with wine to saturation likit causes chemical reaction and changes looks of the milk init.
March 08 of 2026: stepped out of my apartment around 01h55 and came back around 03h15, it was a bit windy. Although the time difference between Ottawa Ontario Canada and some other countries has changed due to the change of time to EDT from EST, but I am still in the same place, no change in my physical presence coordinates despite EST to EDT change.
March 07 of 2026: it started raining Not cats Not dogs but nearly kittens and pupps suddenly around 14h50 as I walking towards my residence. When I boarded the bus it was not, after I got off the bus it started raining. I entered the building through the ‘B’ side entrance door, walked to the lobby, a french speaking family with a child was seen sitting on the bench across from the elevators, elevators were far from the floor 1 so I decided to use ‘B’ side stairways to get to my apartment. Back to my apartment, made few stops on the way.
March 07 of 2026: this morning called Scotibank to deal with a 2SV issue after it was deactivated in the app and app was removed from the phone, but account retains the 2SV setting even after removing from the phone and the app. Purpose of the apps was total independence from bank staff intervention and account owner do every thing by themselves, industry should look into this aspect of 2SV that app should remove aa the occurances of 2SV from the account profiles etc as well, after account owner deactivated the 2SV and uninstalled the banking app from the device etc.
March 07 of 2026: this morning heard on a news channel of youtube a reader using the word escaping which in my opinion was not suitable, word fleeing from the war zone would be better, while reporting the war of the middleEast and the Arabian peninsula.

March 03 of 2026: bought my big meal of the day at East side Mario’s after visiting LED lighting store. Paid for the meal by cash to my server, she gave to tiny flags which inserted in the salt shaker. An old man working in the kitchen came out after I paid cash to the server, and tried to hand me a box containing something, unusual in restaurant environment, but at home or in the private parties in eastern countries (like I saw at home of that time, in Karachi) this kind of handing of a box to leaving guests may be acceptable and normal but in NOT restaurants. At the end of majlis in Karachi they used to hand out some shirini (sweets) to the attendees when they leave. During the wait time I took some pictures with my phone since there was no “photography prohibited” sign, which means it was allowed.
March 03 of 2026: during the past few days of March lot of destruction scenes were seen by me on YouTube news channels, made me think that it would was a good opportunity for us to supply all our brooming and mopping work force to that area for operation cleanup of debris and rubble, could be a big money maker.

March 02 of 2026: visited a BMO branch around 13h00 to buy a digital wallet, it was found that BMO bank does not support Google wallet app, perhaps they support iPhone digital wallet app. Bank teller asked me to set it up in his presence, but did not work out, it got stuck at bank “needs to verify your identity” and he was not able to complete it. He went into another office to come back, as I was leaving from my chair another person came out of the offices and headed towards the managers office (i.e. the person who let me use the branch chord less phone in recent past). This was the branch where they don’t have ten dollars currency notes in the ATM/ABM machine which I used to draw some money for my pocket keeping. Surprisingly, Scotiabank ATM/ABM machines do not have five dollars bank notes.
