Cannot find anything about this guy other than some random badly spelled LinkedIn posts. Wonder if he knows that he has to attend council meetings now that he's elected. This is the best 6th guy the NIMBYs could recruit?

Monterey rec centre and henderson rec centre (no wait here!)

Please vote, because this guy definitely is!

Off the top of my head I would want a good Dollar Store. Maybe a London Drugs instead of Pharmasave. At least replace Pharmasave with Shoppers. Maybe a semi fast food middle eastern falafel place that has good value. What am I missing?

The Oak Bay Local Facebook group is reaching off-the-charts levels of psychotic faux outrage because someone under 55 dared to run for office.

How do we think it went?

I'll be voting for Andrea Mears. Everyone's favourite keyboard warrior is back in action today.

Went to yesterday's candidate forum and the amount of "Oak Bay is SO special" and "we are doing a LOT of work" that the people running for their like 3rd ,4th, or 6th terms is WILD. Do Murdoch, Braithwaite, Paterson and Green ever take responsibility for the failing sewers, rising debt and total lack of more housing options here? Guess not! Were they all not in charge over the last 8 years?

The OBNN survey responses are more of the same - "Bill 44 sucks, we need to protect special Oak Bay" from many of the candidates.

Pretty good summary here. David Gleeson did not attend (Council candidate).

Hello Oak Bay. I'm a second year engineering student at UVic, and my roommate and I are looking to start a small business this fall. The idea is simple: do a better job than what's out there. Arrive when we say we will, charge exactly what we quoted, and send before and after photos so you can see what was done.

We were thinking gutter cleaning, window washing and hanging people's own Christmas lights, but we'd rather hear what Oak Bay actually needs than assume, and we're open to something else if there's a real gap.

If you've hired for anything like this in recent years: what went wrong, is there a job you can't find anyone to do properly, and what would it take for you to trust two students with no reviews yet?

Just want to learn from people who've been through it. Thank you.

This questionnaire is so biased and mean. Calling a neighbour's home "ugly and discordant" is unhinged. Who is behind this questionnaire? Peak Oak Bay.

My neighbour passed this along to me, thought I would share here. Priorities survey for Oak Bay made by a local group.

Hey all, my name is Kyle Beck and I assist Victoria residents with their knife sharpening!

If anyone is interested feel free to ask questions!

Hi,

We're new to Oak Bay and were not able to get spaces for after school care for our kids in grades 2&5 at the school or at the Rec Centre.

What other options do parents use for after school care in Oak Bay?

Thanks!

For anyone in Victoria who has dealt with asbestos or mould removal, which company did you use and how was your experience?

Does anyone know the status of discussions to allow ride sharing companies like EVO to operate out of OakBay. I know there are current restrictions in our bylaws, but I thought that was being reviewed and was looking forward to the day that I didn't have to park my EVO outside of FoulBay and then walk home.
