I noticed NorthMail.ca which I had previously only know for being a Canadian hosted and owned free webmail provider was now listing Video Calls and an office suite as features.
Oddly enough Northmail was featured in a recent monologue joke on Late Night with Seth Meyers. You can see the joke on TikTok here or at 7:15 on this YouTube video of the show.
I tried out the video calling and it works pretty well though it is not obvious how to do it.
I made a brief guide on how to use the video calling feature in this blog post at ShopCanadianStuff.ca/blog
NorthMail.ca has many other features, a calendar, file and photo storage, dark mode and other theme customization. Language settings allow for both English and French as well as many other languages.
The paid premium version of NorthMail.ca provides 100 GB of storage (1GB for free version), no ads, and promises a faster smoother experience for $0.99/month.
If you sign up soon you can get a pretty good pick of the available email addresses so you don't have to go with something as long a BuyCanadianElbowsUp_1867@NorthMail.ca unless you want something that long.
If anyone is concerned about if Northmail.ca is actually Canadian, the owners name is listed on their website, I checked their linked in page which lists the same person as their CIRA domain registration.

How do you go about installing multiple things on the pi? When I built my pihole I don’t think it partitioned anything or whatever..?
I used whatever installer thing the pihole page had on it (but I did it a while ago), and if you can’t tell I’m not super techie, just enough to usually do what I need with guidance.
I’m probably dramatically misunderstanding what the setup entailed..
I recommend Yunohost https://doc.yunohost.org/admin/install/install_on/raspberry_pi
Point and click on an admin page to install from a big list of apps. It warns you if a particular app might use a lot of memory.
I run pihole on the raspberry pi, like an app it takes up port 8080 (I think it is on both my pi’s). I use different ports for different applications like 8087 for my NextCloud.
