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 31 of 2026: First day of the month April in some parts of the world on this planet earth. around 07h42
March 30 of 2026: OC transpo O-Train paused at more than one stations for noticeable period of time for some time stop etc. on Line 1 –
March 30 of 2026: OC transpo should consider to re introduce the old style passes as described below with adjusted pricing at the current rate. Will be Hassel free, fraud free, human intervention free. I am not anti technology mafia but I support positive use of technology not negative use of technology. Negative and positive in this context will be from consumers point of view because consumers pay for the services they use, and services should be stress free, trouble free and honest. Human history tells us that large number of negatives does not and can not win over positives regardless of their strength in numbers. In the past it used to be for reasons which will not be applicable now, but it be technological reasons now.

March 30 of 2026: visited CAA around 12h30, hands sanitizers were NOT available, no price tags on certain items, such as hats. I was considering to renew my full.jembership but they do not want to use Courier service (offered to pay the courier fee) I do not want to use the regular mail to get important cards and documents to prevent theft and misuse of my essentials. I have been a member of AAA since 1995 which was transferred to CAA membership but I am not associated with either of these travel clubs as a partner or franchises of my brand, I was only a paying member of these club when I owned vehicles, since I do not own a vehicle at present I do not need these memberships. First time ever I became a member of any travel club on this planet earth was in 1981 in Eindhoven ANWB. While I was busy talking to a man probably never of CAA said you have a new car, I responded at present I use public transit. I heard a woman ‘s voice, I thought she was taking to me, I turned my head toward my left to see who was talking to me, I just responded to a voice unknowingly, she was an unfriendly old grand mother who wanted to take to that man to take him to the picture studio. I mentioned to him while I was talking to him that now adays element of honesty has disappeared and there was no value in such memberships. Originators of the club’s operated these clubs differently there was some value in it that’s why people opted to buy in these club memberships. (I am not a literature expert fromm language proficiency pint of view neither a journalist, my English may not be perfect from that point of view, I am an Engineer, and my English is sufficiently well to write and describe technical matters). But opponents and disgruntled illiterate people will always find some wrong in my social media postings, which was immaterial for me.
March 30 of 2026: today again presto card was dancing back and forth between March and April monthly pass. During the past several months it was noticed that when a next month’s pass was purchased after 20th of the current month than next month’s pass shows on the the fare box display. But since February of this year this system seems to have fallen apart. Not sure if there S was due to technological setback to OC transpo or due to malicious intent human intervention or OC transpo should clearly publish this information that what happens when a customer purchases a next month’s pass on the top of current month’s pass. One store told me that the presto was having difficulty today and she could not provide presto related services, another day. This store was located in the same building where I attended employment programs around 2006 referred by OTI Kanata.
March 29 of 2026: busy day in Ottawa various areas of the city. Swiss chalet, etc.
March 28 of 2026: I am not a member of Costco, never was, around 30 years ago bought some baby stuff from Costco, I was a member of Sam’s club, 20 years ago) and I did not place and orders to Costco for the any products shipment recently, I never.
March 28 of 2026: shoppers drug mart at Prince of wales and Meadowlands was found using defective Interac POS machines, there was no alternate payment setup, I tried more than one cards, happened around 12h40, so I paid by cash after withdrawing cash from my PC financial account i.e. dispensing machine which was found on the premises of the store. Cashier at the POS did not accept one hundred dollars bank note. After this I used my BMO card at McDonald’s to purchase some food at the kiosk, card worked fine, payment to the retail fast food store was successful. #599
March 27 of 2026: back in my apartment around 17h45 from second trip to downtown since this morning, many issues, many situations, transit pass etc.
March 27 of 2026: as always or most of the time, my food orders numbers at McDonald’s do not show on the board. When I asked the secret for it, I was told it was due to system error, one time I was told it was not done , not ready yet etc that’s why my order number 1098 was not showing on the board.
March 27 of 2026: I purchased next month’s oc transpo pass around 11h00 at a station and checked it right away, was correctly showing the renewal of the pass as April 30, after that several times it was noticed that the oc transpo monthly pass was switching between March and April from vehicle to vehicle, which I find was a bit stressful because, just a month ago one of my passes was lost in transfer from one presto card to another, but I did not pursue it rather purchased a second pass for the same month which made it almost full fare pass instead of discounted monthly pass. Not sure if this back and forth switching of my monthly pass from April to March and to April was happening due to human intervention or presto related system issues. Or perhaps it was just something to do with the first name last name system for March and April to make one card as belonging to two people.
March 27 of 2026: got a money order issued out of my scotia Bank Ultimate package chequing account and deposited in my BMO bank Premium Plan chequing account. According to Scotiabank officer, I was told with certainty that the funds will be instantaneously available in my BMO account, but according to BMO there is some unknown rule which will hold it for 4 days, despite the fact that I have a premium Plan associated with my BMO bank chequing account and Ultimate Package with Scotiabank. Done Around 13h00, another branch of BMO bank told me that in the past it used be instantaneous but NOT any more, Personal cheques used go on hold for few days for clearance purpose from the cheque issuers bank, but now even bank drafts and money orders are not instantaneous because of frauds in the industry, even if it was from Scotiabank. This was useful information that bank draft and money orders issued in Canada deposited in Canada can not be trusted and are put on hold. Terms “Plan or package” have no industry standards, game of words. To avoid hold on personal cheques a legally acceptable method was to go to the branch where the cheque was issued for instantaneous encashment. But I never heard that Money Orders and Bank drafts were not realized instantaneously, something new developing in the industry, distrust among institutions and account holders.
March 27 of 2026: Change in bank account for the direct deposit from OAS, OW-CPP and other payments was initiated by myself as a personal choice but Not due to any legal requirement. Despite submitting to Service Canada in February before the family day weekend 2026 and resubmitting the sane document in March, i.e. the necessary information from the relevant bank, direct deposit still goes into the previous bank account, which I have not ended and I am keeping it active as a backup in a glitchy (which may be due to some one’s negligence or system defect) situation like this.
March 26 of 2026: 17h00 to 21h00 dine out in downtown Ottawa, paid by my card including tip,made few stops, came back via Greenboro station, bus route 40 was late. Updated my account information at BMO ATM/ABM by making a small amount deposit.
March 26 of 2026: a team of two women couriers of a housing company who claimed to have sent an email to me, handed some documents to complete and mentioned about some rent arrears from the past, do not know the full details I told them that my financial situation has not changed since the last time I submitted my documents, I am still still on OAS, unemployed with out my full professional pay cheque. they were waiting for me at the door of my apartment 307 around 14h45. My name format was discussed in this brief meeting at the apartment door. My name on the buzzer list at the entrance is matching with my driver’s license where as my name on the printed documents issued to me by OCH matches with my name on my citizenship card. One of them mentioned something about bureaucracy.
March 26 of 2026: today pc financials web login and app login failed around 13h00, soon after I logged in to updated some information. I wrote a messenger to pc financials and also called the customer services and explained to the staff this was not joint account was a solo account, was fully owned and operated by Engr. KhalidMahmood, she was nit able to explain whtly they split my name on two lines when there was sufficuebtvspace on the card to print my name in one full line. I am still on phone waiting for the other group to talk me regarding the WMC (not mailing) matter, I instructed them not to mail a renewed card by regular mail, I offered them to pay for the courier fee to deliver the card to me to my apartment door by a courier but not by regular Canada post mail. Splitting the name on two lines does not make card shareable between two individuals (illegal), I see no reason to write one person’s ID name in two different lines when I first signed up for Presidents Choice on line account in 1996 I filled the form in my handwriting and wrote my Social Insurance Number on the form in my own handwriting, was not a joint account. My offsprings were babies at that time and offsprings mother did not accept to have a joint account. Moreover these grocery store type accounts were not joint accounts ever to my knowledge. I’ve at my current address since 2023 and I made it clear to the housing workers that I will not be responsible for any issues under this name “KhalidMahmood” prior to my residence began at this address, because they were not able to provide the history of this building i.e. if there were any other tenants by this name in this building ever,

March 14 of 2026: went out for quick grocery to a neigbourhood store, retail stores always want customers to buy more, but this store was teaching me to economize on bags and not buy disposable grocery bag, a bit unusual to hear this in Canada I remember in Karachi it was very common that people used to go to grocery shopping with a picnic basket (ٹوکری) made of plastic or bamboo sticks, which was reusable, it was not like disposable grocery bags.

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.

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.

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.
