            Later this month I will turn 36 years old, and after 18 years of trying I am finally graduating from university with a bachelor degree. I first tried my hand at higher education in 2002 at the age of 17 and freshly out of highschool. I dropped out after four painful semesters of poor grades and lots of unintended learnings related to flavoured vodka and student loans.

            Although the number of COVID-19 cases have drastically decreased over the past few months in Nova Scotia, that does not mean the job market has fully recovered. Even before the virus, people across Canada were suffering from financial instability, due to the fact that their income is not enough to provide for basic living necessities.
