Purpose
To calculate your personal RDA for protein. Most adults consume
more than adequate amounts of protein for growth, repair and
maintenance of the human body. There are some of us, however, that
fall short of our daily intake. The roles of protein make it the
MOST versatile of all the energy nutrients and also one of the most
critical. It is always interesting to see how much protein you
really need on a daily basis so this activity will let you write a
menu to reflect meeting those protein needs. Don't go over board
but be sure to meet the RDA. Most students are surprised how easily
we do meet our protein recommendations.

Case Discussion : Business Law :
Trindent Consulting International Inc. v. Logsdon, 2018 ONSC 1696 (CanLII) Trindent was incorporated in Wyoming, with its head office in Toronto. It had no physical operations in Wyoming. An Ontario corporation oversaw the management, human resources, and administrative functions of Trindent from its Toronto offices. Logsdon was a US citizen resident in Texas. Trindent made an offer of employment to Logsdon as a manager in its Toronto office. The salary was in US dollars. The governing law of the contract was the law of Ontario. There was no forum selection clause. Logsdon accepted the offer. He did not provide services to any clients located in Canada. His initial interview was in Toronto, where he also attended for training sessions and meetings with management. Logsdon resigned and sued Trindent in Texas for breach of the employment contract. Trindent filed a defence to that action and then commenced this action in Ontario, suing Logsdon for breach of the employment contract. Logsdon applied to stay the action, claiming Ontario was not a convenient forum. Did the Court stay the action? What factors did it consider in making its decision?
