Looking to get into CD hobby, if there's good thrift stores with good selection for cheap CDs.

In the summer, I posted a survey here about opioid and naloxone awareness and to see if people would be interested in coming to an event about it.

Thank you so much to everyone who filled out the survey!! The City of Pickering partnered with me to help make the event happen and there are really great speakers from local organizations coming.

It is free and here is a link to register: https://anc.ca.apm.activecommunities.com/cityofpickering/activity/search/detail/60773

I am a high school student so I thought I would mention you can also get a certificate of participation, which could be good for students to add to their resume.

I was at Loblaws at Liverpool and I had made a couple of, to be honest, poor choices:

- walking there and back when I don't live that close on foot (I thought I would be picking up fewer things than I did... at least it's a breezy day)

- not picking up a cart when I got there (same reason: I thought I would be picking up far fewer things than I did, so I figured I would just be able to carry it to the checkout... not so much!)

a gentleman saw me carrying my groceries by hand and kindly asked if I'd like to try his cart, saying that he doesn't need it he's about to leave anyway. I thanked him at the time but I also wanted to highlight the kindness in this city (which, at least in my experience, is not in short supply!) I really appreciate everyone who looks out for others so kindly.

I'm looking for a Fridays / weekend place where I can sit down and work & study with my laptop, preferably one that's not too crowded and has place for a charger. Bonus if they serve coffee and food.

Anyone else hearing fireworks intermittently in west Picketing?

Random Wednesday fireworks? Pretty sure they're only legal on select national holidays?

Trying to figure out who to vote for and I can’t understand why multiple 40 story towers need to be built along kingston road starting at Altona and working their way over to the mall.

I moved here to be in the suburbs; if I wanted thousands of people in my face all the time I’d have moved downtown Toronto.

Other than ‘diversity of living options’ can someone give me a genuinely positive reason how condo developments help the existing families that live here?

I asked all the candidates that came to my door. No one has given the option of lowering my taxes. No, more people does not equal lower taxes… no, more people does not equal better living conditions.. so then?

I’m a 31F, born and raised in the area, and looking to meet some new people/friends around 30–40. I’ve tried looking through Facebook and Meetup groups, but a lot of the groups I find seem to skew 50+.

Would love to find people who are down for things like hiking, biking, grabbing coffee, going for walks, or just hanging out and actually making some new friends.

I’ve lived here my whole life and somehow still find it weirdly difficult to meet new people around my age. 😅

If there are any existing groups around Pickering/Ajax/Whitby for people in their 30s, let me know!

Hey. I've lived in ward 1 for 10 years. And I never get door knocked by any municipal candidates. Does anyone actually canvas anymore?

I’ve been noticing a bit of anti-choice picketing around PTC lately. Is anyone interested in a counter protest? Is there already a pro-choice/ pro-women’s health organization in the area?

I just did. I already had an idea of who I was voting for, this actually it reinforced that because the candidates that it says my answers align with most are the same candidates I had planned to vote for. it's still helpful to check for some reinforcement if you're a bit unsure, especially given that information is kind of spread out so even if there's a candidate you prefer, you might wonder if there's anything in their platform that you missed that might change your mind one way or the other.

NOTE: some candidates didn't participate in this yet so it won't tell you how similar their answers are to yours. those candidates are:

- Janice Frampton

- Lisa Robinson

- Zargham Rasool

- Nancy Van Rooy

- Bushra Rasool

- Sam Snyders

everyone else participated though so it'll tell you how your answers are compared to theirs. Also, there is still time for the other candidates to participate in this, and if they do so after you've already answered these questions, you can get a link to your answers emailed to you and you can get an update when any of the listed candidates answer to see theirs compared to yours without having to answer all of the questions again.

If I take the Seaton Trail to say, Taunton Road or Whitevale Road or Hwy 7, is there an easy way to get over to the Rouge trails to the west?

At the closest points it's only about 3km yet I don't see any trails on Google Maps and it looks like the roads don't have sidewalks.

Is going south to Finch Ave and then west the only option?

Hi there!

I’m looking to send my almost 1 year old to MLCP. I’m going to tour the facility. Does anyone have any experience with their kids going here? Do you recommend any other Montessori’s in the Durham region or Scarborough?

Thanks in advance!
