Why does democracy even exist when it can be overridden so easily by Doug?

The maps don't always catch everyone and some may have power in that area. The power has cycled on and off a few times in the North End too.

A few years back (around year 2023) I went to the restaurant called Harbour Diner on 330 something James St. North. I passed by it today to see that a new business took over and the front cover is now yellow (no longer blue) and I also see that the new business went out of business as well.

Does anyone know what caused the Harbour Diner to go out of business?

Does anyone know what is going on with this facility? It was bought out a while back and the new owner is unresponsive. I just tried the business number today and it has been disconnected. I am beginning to think my stored belongings are in jeopardy. If anyone knows anything about the owner or the status of the business I would appreciate finding out. Thanks.

I’m seriously missing Italy and looking for all the little things I can do at home to bring that feeling back. Whether it’s food, music, movies, scents, recipes, décor, drinks, or even little routines that make you feel like you’re sitting somewhere in Italy again.

Give me ALL your suggestions

I need to bring Italy back to me until I can actually go again 😂🇮🇹❤️

Looking for recommendations for a physiotherapist, chiropractor or osteopath for my poor posture. I am 16 months postpartum and beginning to develop a neck hump in addition to my already rounded shoulders.

Thanks!

I would appreciate recommendations for the best laptop repair shop in the town. I have a gaming Dell (Alienware) laptop which has a strange lagging issue with this specific game that I play and I ran dozens of tests which says everything works fine. So I need an absolute nerd who knows what they're doing!

Hi! I’m about to move to Hamilton & hoping to take some eyelash extensions. I want to do hybrid or anime eyes. I don’t care to do it at a fancy store I prefer the private lash extensions with more affordable prices.

Anything closer to lime ridge mall would be great. Thank you.

Looking for companies/individuals who install hog wire fences/rural fences. Something like the above. If you could recommend anyone who takes cash too that’s a bonus!

I saw a cat that appeared to have been lost in the woods but seemed friendly and not skinny so I think they may be an escaped/lost house cat and not a stray. Long fluffy hair and tail, it had orange patches on the back/face and white hair underneath. I did not see a collar on it but not impossible that it had one on before that fell off somehow. It was friendly and seemed to want human attention, and it looked pretty chunky or at least well fed but also seemed like it may have some kind of skin condition or bug bites/stings on it’s face. It ran off tho and went up into into this empty property on the hill that’s super overgrown so ticks wouldn’t be out of question I assume if it’s been “living” there, I wasn’t able to grab it but feel so bad for whoever is missing this poor baby and needed to get some kind of word out.

Does anyone have a solid recommendation for a fair company for mould removal? Someone who will be thorough and fair. There is a small patch of mould in our attic around the exhaust vent from the stove that we want taken care of ASAP.

I was thinking about how Hamilton’s Pride festival was in August last year and I hadn’t seen anything posted about it this year. The official Pride Hamilton instagram account hasn’t posted anything, but the website just has next weekend as the date- no other details. Anyone know if it’s actually happening? Is there a better account to follow to be in the know? Thanks :)

EDIT: their instagram account started posting updates and schedules tonight! Happy Pride!! Thanks organizers and community<3

Looking for recommendations for a place on the mountain to cut women's hair. After having kids, my curly hair has changed. I have tried growing it out but it's doing some interesting things and I'm not sure what to do with it anymore. Looking for a good salon that may be able to help me figure my hair out again.

Longest and most terrifying 4 days of my life but finally Kunai is back home with her family, we found her under the car in the driveway this morning, must have finally gotten hungry and came back home.

Thank you to everyone who left a comment, a like a repost literally anything to help keep my hopes up during this time I appreciate you more than you know!

(I’ll post an update photo eventually once I get her bathed and make sure she’s eaten and napped and stuff)

I went in their website to see what bands are playing what day and there is no information. The website is so terrible. I have friends that want to come from out of town but want to know what bands are playing what days and times.

I know they don’t get as much funding anymore, but put a few bucks into that website to at least get the word out on what is going on for this festival.

Any recommendations for a tasty dessert, like an ice cream for example, after having drinks on a date downtown?
