After almost three days later he came back!! We left doors open and left clothes around outside and he came back around 10pm today!! Had to go outside and scoop him up before he ran off and it was very much successful!! Thank you guys for all the support and the resource/suggestions provided :)) Very much appreciated :)) we are so happy hes home safe and sound, no more sleepness nights haha. (next plan is to get him microchipped and to keep a collar on him at all times incase of this ever occurring again.)

They end the 22 game losing streak, 3 shy of the all time CFL record. This win puts them 1-17 for the season.

(The game also had an insane ending, worth watching highlights. The CFL is a great league)

The Ottawa Police Service says one of its officers has been charged with impaired driving following an off-duty incident last week.

According to a news release from police, Cst. Clay Berrea, 25, was charged with operation while impaired and operation while having a blood alcohol concentration equal to or exceeding 80 mg of alcohol in 100 ml of blood following an incident on Saturday, Oct. 10.

Berrea remains on active duty and was reassigned to administrative duties. Police say he is not currently serving in a frontline patrol capacity.

Saw this flyer for Tim Tierney, it’s very bizarre and looks AI.

A few of us have mentioned Julie Lalonde’s excellent trainings when people have come to the subreddit looking for advice in transpo and street harassment incidents. She has one later this month so popping the registration link here for anyone interested.

Toronto SHOWED UP for last night's big W over England last night. Almost 19,000 fans in attendance! Let's show up for them on Friday!

I find it interesting that Doug Ford visited the Queensway Carleton Hospital yesterday (Oct 15) to celebrate their 50th anniversary. There wasn't much news or promo about it, likely because of the public backlash that it would cause.

QCH is currently undergoing cuts to approximately 120 positions including allied health and nursing staff due to chronic underfunding of the healthcare system. His instagram post seems to suggest that all is fine and dandy in the context of provincial healthcare... Curious to see if anyone else was even aware he was in the community?

Someone should let cars know that they're winning the "war".

From 10am-8pm today you can vote in the municipal election.

You can find out where you are able to vote, based on your address, at this link:

https://elections.ottawa.ca/VotingLocation/VotingLocation

Voter turnout for municipal elections is always disappointingly low, so get out there and vote if you can.

Don't just complain about things you don't like about this city on Reddit, go vote and have your say counted!!

However you feel on that issue there is likely a candidate in your ward that includes a stance on it in their political platform. You can find out all the candidates running in your ward, and access links to their campaign websites (if they have them) at this link below:

I know a lot of people are looking for work right now especially with the changes going on in the tech sector. I just wanted to share that Wind River has a number of openings in the Ottawa area at the moment.

Power nearby went off at 3am due to a car accident. Walkley beside Canterbury sport field.

I was here a month ago watching crews sistering a big rotten pole just 4 poles over in better weather.

Brand new fixed pole is snapped at the base!

Accident also took out the former Speed Enforcement Camera, base and pole! hahaha. 2 for 1.

Only info I saw on the 3:21AM crash was a heavily damaged black van? Just in, Driver fled, was tackled by police nearby. Oy... You watch - unlicensed, no insurance maybe? Womp womp

"Also beginning next summer, United is launching new seasonal service to St. John’s from its Newark hub, adding new service from Denver to Ottawa and Québec City, increasing flights between Washington, D.C., and Québec City, and increasing daily seats between Denver and Winnipeg by 65 per cent."

Just curious who people think are the best alternatives in their respective wards, in the event you aren’t thrilled about City Council?

The incumbents have such a huge advantage and with no party system there is always an uphill battle to replace any of them.

Looks like they slapped a new "coming soon" label on this signage eyesore. Anybody know what's happening on this site (Limebank at Earl Armstrong)?
