We will also discuss when to disclose writing assistance from AI tools and how to cite them.
Correction: In slide 36, Nicole mentions that the land Daniel Elder patented was within the Ottawa area of British Columbia. Ottawa was actually the location of the land patent office as the capital of Canada, and that's why the location was included in the land patent. The land he patented was in British Columbia along the Railway Belt.
