Halloween prank on Dunlop Rd?

What's with the crazy flashing houslights at the corner of Dunlop and Cavanagh? Is this some sort of Halloween decoration on Nov 1? I wanted to call the police, something didn't seem right .

Help With Abandoned Kittens

We found two abandoned kittens this afternoon and are trying to figure out where they can stay for the night until the SPCA / bylaw are open tomorrow. We don't have cats so don't have food / etc for them, and have dogs that we need to sequester away from them.

We'll make it work if we have to, but any chance someone else in the Carleton Place area is better set up and wouldn't mind taking over from here?

Happy to drive them to you!

EDIT: Someone replied almost right away and we have it all figured out! Thanks!

"Granny flat"

Good day everyone, my family is considering turning an attached garage into a "granny flat", or "garden apartment". We are meeting with a couple of different designers to start exploring the possibilities. Does anyone have experience doing this before? What questions would you be asking? What do you wish you knew before starting a building project? We know there are limits to how much square footage we can add, but looking forward to finding out more information. Thanks

Child can't find a job in CP or surrounding area?

https://www.lmiamap.com/

This information is publicly available but this map will aid in the digestion of this info.

For citizens struggling to find jobs, take a look at all of the businesses you've applied to and see how many of them have claimed that there are no Canadian workers or permanent residents available to do the job.

Now I'm not saying it's as easy as just boycotting all these businesses. That would be impossible. But here is a list of employers in Canada who have already been caught and/or fined for abusing the system:

(Shout out to u/LMIA-Map for putting this together)

Edit: the unemployment rate is currently 6.4% and increasing. This is the highest it's been since 2014.

Adventurers Wanted!

I just moved out to Carleton place, starting a whole new life all over again. This is a nice town, and I'm hoping to make connections here. I love running tabletop games, creating a space for people to flex their creative writing, acting, and social improvisational skills: so if anyone's in the area and would like to start a table of like-minded people please reach out!

I have experience running three different editions of D&D, 2 CoD books, and a smattering of other systems-- so we need not limit ourselves to Wizards of the Coast IP, and I've handled players of all skill levels before so even if you're totally new to TTRPGs and just looking try something new, we can create a place for you to safely experiment.

This would be a pro-LGBTQ+ space we're building, so leave bigotry at the door. I'd also prefer not to have minors, in case our chosen venue turns out to have drinks handy.

I'll be responding to people here on Reddit, and posting a few other places. If this sort of activity is of any interest please reach out!
