Most theatre you need to be part of some kind of membership, but I just want to be part of the kind of theatre where I walk in, audition, and if they like me they take me and I do what I can. Thanks!
If you’re talking about big, professional theatre, Mirvish sometimes holds open calls for non-equity performers. Their website is mirvish.com and has audition updates on it. Otherwise, I’d say check out local community theatres if you just want to perform for fun 
I’m seriously interested in going to York Uni in Toronto and was wondering if you get to decide if you want to minor or major in a programme or if they choose for you based on auditions and accademics… Any info would help thanks
You will get to choose. Really the only difference is the order to which it will be printed on your degree, lol. Good luck!
What improvement could make Toronto a world class city again? Any suggestions?
The question which needs to be asked, is was Toronto ever a world class city and if so, when?
Determine that and then you can answer your question.
Toronto as we now it today is fairly new. The skyscrapers dominating the skyline are from the late 60′s and 70′s.
The public transprotation plan was originally to have been much larger, but provincial and federal politics downsized plans. Toronto has always been a political football.
The city cannot be compared to London or Paris as it lacks the history. It cannot be compared to Chicago as it lacks the architecture, population and history of creative urban planning.
The theatre scene is primarily dominated by one family or company, the Mirvish Family so what we see is determined by one company.
Almagamation with other cities forced the City of Toronto to focus on other priorities rather the original boundaries of the city. Money had to be spent elsewhere.
Increase public transportation, advance the new 25 year transit plan by 15 years, redevelop the port lands, the waterfront, include affordable housing in the downtown core. Toronto, with the vast number of condo units rising in the downtown core is becomine a have or have not city. Push for dealmagamation. Allow Toronto to become Toronto again territorial speaking. Eliminate height restrictions on buildings. Support the arts scene. Recogonize that while the city is the most ethnically diverse city in the world, ethnic tensions are slowly simmering and do something about it.
There’s no chance you can become a pharmaceutical assistant without having a pharmacy technician certification. The place where you are employed to work and what your boss is really doesn’t matter here. The career of pharmacy assistants and certified pharmacists are both heavily supervised. That is because once you work with a pharmacy, you’d be dealing with medicine and compounds that may be advantageous for quite a few people but are very risky in many others. It is important that you establish that you could effectively dispense prescription drugs and administer medication in order to be employed productively as a pharmacy technician. The best way it can be done is by passing the certification for pharmacy technician.
To become credentialed to function in the pharmaceutical field, you ought to acquire the appropriate education and learning first. The good thing is, it is possible to get this education and learning directly on the position itself. The clinic or pharmacy you send your application to can employ you even if you don’t have any recent experience or education as a pharmacy technician. They could teach you themselves or send you to a business college to learn about the basics of the job. Then you’re able to sign up for your certification examinations after you have undertaken 240 hours of proper training.
Should you wish to go further forward, nevertheless, it will be more favorable that you should complete a bachelor’s degree in pharmacy. Owning a bachelor’s degree will open up doorways to considerably better job opportunities and more gratifying salary packages for you. Additionally, your possible recruiters will find you more pleasing simply because they don’t need to commit time and money in schooling you.
On the job schooling or completing a bachelor’s degree – regardless of which one you complete, you will still must get your pharmacy technician certification from either the Pharmacy Technician Certification Board (PTCB) or the National Healthcare Association (NHA).
To discover which business you ought to apply to, you must look at a couple of things. First, you must find out which agency is recognized in your region. Both NHA and PTCB are approved in a number of states; in other states, only one of these two is credited. Secondly, you need to learn which of these two groups most companies in your place favor. Should you choose to do this, it is going to enhance your odds of getting appointed.
A high school diploma or its GED equal is the PTCB’s most significant demand you must satisfy to qualify for its accreditation test. You also need to prove that you do not have a criminal history or a prior licensure action with your state’s Board of Pharmacy. The payment for PTCB’s exams is $129. Furthermore, you can get prepared for your exam by utilizing the reviewers and guide lists PTCB supplies on its online site. An extra $40 may also let you go ahead and take mock tests to help you to get prepared for the real test.
In terms of the pharmacy technician certification tests given by the NHA, you ought to be a high school graduate or have the GED equivalent to qualify for it. Also, submission of files indicating that you are who you say you are is called for. Your contact details and Social Security Number are contained in these evidence. NHA’s exam rates total $105. You can even get hold of a number of references from the NHA internet site so you can prepare for the examinations.
Regardless of whether you ought to acquire a bachelor’s degree in pharmacy or merely rely on the training you may get on the job is your decision. It is also your choice regardless of whether to acquire your certification from PTCB or NHA. No matter what your decisions could be in this topic, you can rest assured of one thing: It would be extremely hard for you to sustain your career as a pharmaceutical assistant for anyone who is unsuccessful in acquiring your pharmacy technician certification.
There are movie theaters and stuff there right? Do you guys get movies around the same time as the states?
Toronto is like any other northern major US city, except very very multi-cultural… more multi-cultural then New York in my opinion.
It is surrounded by large suburbs, streetcars downtown, mid-sized urban subway of 4 routes, 3 major universities, major league sports teams, 6 major highways (including the 20 lane HWY 401-one of the widest and busiest highways in the world) – the Gardiner Expressway going through downtown, 3 airports including a 3 terminal international airport, skyscrappers… and yes movie theatres… lol
The Greater Toronto Area (including its Regional Municipalities) is the 6th largest metropolitan area in North America. That means if Toronto was in the US, It would be the 6th largest city in the US.
It is also the 46th largest agglomeration in the world.
Toronto is also known as Hollywood North and annually hosts the Toronto International Film Festival. So after Hollywood and New York… Toronto is the next top dog in North America for the filming Industry… so YES, Movie releases (and pre-release screenings dates) are usually the same day as US release dates.
My girlfriend and I are catching a show in Toronto this weekend. Where can we get some good food in the early evening without breaking the bank and where we can get away with casual attire? We want to try and avoid the franchise restaurants if possible. Thanks!
We’ll be in the Queensway area.
It depends on where the the theatre is that your seeing the show, along King St W near the Royal Alex and Princess of Wales there are a number of nice casual places, near the Canon, Sony and others there to is a few, from fast food to casual sitdown place, as former chef and having worked and lived here in T.O for over 15 year of my 30+ as a chef, I go out rarely. But I do know the city and district very well.
