Came across a place/store today which shows a lot of personal identifying info (DOB, address, phone no, etc) if you enter a person's email ID (given the person has entered this information in the system earlier)

The system doesn't verify if you are the owner of that information. It simply shows all the data associated with the email ID

I mentioned to the employees but they were students and weren't really concerned. It's a chain so it's been hard to get in touch with someone else there.

Is there any action I can take? I consider this a breach.

Hi all,

I'm beyond irritated with what is going on, so I will be doing my best to replace any American brands with Canadian ones. Here are some of the ones I need help with:

Coffee - I start work early (7 am) , so usually only the big players are open ( Mc Donald's, Tim's). There are local players but they don't open that early. Any recommendations?

Pet food - wet cat food.

Groceries - what stores are either local owned or Canadian?

Thank you!

We're looking to replace our roof with metal. We've had 3 quotes done for the job. Ranging from 7k-22k

Some neighbors have recently used Taminka so we had them come out for a quote as well.

Call me cynical (it's a huge investment) but I'm having a really hard time accepting almost 500 5* reviews.

Has anyone had them install? Any issues? Hoping for some 5+ year reviews, bc of course it will look good new, but how did it perform long term? How was warranty or issues handled?

Not looking for more companies for quotes, just honest reviews about this company.

I like to take my older dog to trails and parks that are pretty quiet, where he can go off leash without being bothered by other dogs, usually I take him to Lowville or Kerns trails, which are good, are there any others that are like the two listed in Halton Region or even Hamilton? I tried LaSalle but it’s always busy

I do put him on leash when I see any humans or dogs in the area!!!!

Hi all, any recommendations for a gluten free caterer? Even if it’s a bit of a drive that’s okay.

Needs to be gluten free certified as it’s for celiac

it’s been mentioned in this subreddit before about a chipotle opening in burlington smart center (appleby & dundas). i’m beginning to think it’s a rumour that has circulated to the entire city as there’s no actual source confirming it. chipotle announced they’re opening in burlington mall on guelph line which led my friends and i to question why there’s two spots opening quite close to each other. we looked around and while we found an official posting from chipotle about burlington mall, there’s nothing about smart center.

i personally think it makes sense to open in smart center since so many trendy restaurants have opened in that plaza like dave’s hot chicken. on the other hand, i can understand why they’re opening in burlington mall to perhaps get people to visit that mall since it’s not very popular.

can anyone find anything official about chipotle opening in smart center?

Hello! We're hosting an engagement party with around 75 people and looking for a venue rental in the Burlington/Oakville area. Any suggestions?

Hello,

Does anyone know if any of the three buildings are covered by rent control? I assume they were all occupied after November 2018 but just looking to confirm.

While I’m posting, does anyone have any reviews for the building?

Thank you:)

Not a legal location, and endangering cyclists in a bike lane they will probably remove.

Very on brand.

If anyone on here is involved with the PC candidate as a volunteer(or for that matter any of the parties running, I just mentioned the PC because it’s the first sign I’ve seen that has done this) may be familiarize yourself with the city’s bylaws regarding election signs and have your crews remove them like the large one currently on N. Service Rd on public allowance by the sidewalk.

I should add, that this will be for a wedding (and the price magically gets upped 😂) we’ll only be needing about a dozen.

Thanks for all the suggestions!

I purchased 2 different pies a few weeks ago (frozen). They were labeled Turkey Pot Pie and Chicken Mushroom Leek.

A week ago: cook first pie, cut into it and it’s a beef pie. Call company, they’re shocked, ask for lot number and give replacement

Tonight… same thing, it’s a shepherds pie this time

Why didn’t they warn us? They must have know. How messed up is a food operation to be mislabeling so many ?

We don’t have allergens but you’d think there’d be a better response?

Worse part is kids 5&2 are hungry af and won’t eat it 😅. Onto plan B….

Haven't received anything despite it saying issued on the service ontario site

Does anyone know of any speed cameras or red light cameras in the area

Hello, I’m just looking for some date night ideas for my wife and I on February 8th. She works until 5pm in Burlington, and I am considering getting a hotel in the area for the night. We’re open to all suggestions, we do particularly enjoy live music, musical theatre, cabaret/burlesque. The only thing to keep in mind is that she is pregnant. I have checked the major PAC venues around, and they are either sold out or don’t have a show on. I’m thinking the locals may know a few hidden gems to suggest.

Thanks in advance!!

I noticed a few of years ago work being done on the outside of the Hudson’s Bay at Mapleview the wall which faces the creek(as opposed to facing the QEW or Maple)

Went by today and although it was dark it looked like they were still working on it.

Just wondering if anyone knew (knows) the story.

I saw someone mention a better suited sub recently but I can't seem to find it now. If my Burlington landlord sent me an eviction notice, is there a good place to get free info and advice about how to handle a response? LTB's phone operator gave me answers like "I don't see why not" and "I don't think so" and "probably in some cases". I am hoping for something more reliable.

Alrighty, he’s the monthly post about not being able to find a job. I’m not asking for your petty on how bad it is out there. Yes, I know indeed is a good place to start which I have been but, it’s so over saturated and you see the same jobs from the same Employers over and over again. I just wanted to if you guys have seen anything around town or have heard of someone looking to find workers. Thank you in advance I know January isn’t the best month the find a job

FYI, if your power is out in the Brant Hill area, it’s because the top of a hydro pole broke off on Guelph Line between Dundas and Coventry.

Crews are on site.

You’re welcome!

hello.

Looking for dentist recommendation in Burlington. Recently lost my benefits and will need to pay in cash. I guess two qualities I value is someone who sees patients within 1 week. Not necessarily looking for the cheapest option, but reasonable price for routine dental care.

thanks in advance!

Thank you again! 💛

To the mods: I may not have selected the correct flair, I wasn’t sure which one was most applicable.

I am feeling really un well. Sore throat, aching body, I feel congested. This feels much worse than a cold. My Covid tests are expired. Does this sound like the flu or Covid. I will try my best to drag myself to a clinic tomorrow. I'm just wondering what is going around right now.
