As we head into the holiday break, I want to thank the Canadian statistical sciences community for your involvement with CANSSI this past year. We have many reasons to be grateful for CANSSI's success, which is based on the contributions that all of you make to CANSSI.

@vb_jens gave a very meaningful presentation at on the data ecosystem in Canada, specifically for the georeferenced data, and how the different APIs can talk to one another and be piped mountainmath.ca/canssi/

The part that is generalizable to other applications is `library(tongfen)` to get the least common denominator to the geographies like census tracts from different vintages (or I would guess census tracts to postal codes).

@apreshill such a terrific presentation at -- see apreshill.com/talk/2022-canssi

Alison talked about what *is* a notebook; the features of good notebooks -- good and bad smells around organizing notebooks; the features that add to usability and readability and overall utility of notebooks. I can steal every slide and explain how it applies to my work :heart:. Immersion in constructed reality is a bonus.
