Hi! I have an excess of Daffodil bulbs and a few other plants, i've been looking for someone to trade with. I've been told to ask if our city has a trade group, Thanks!
Was driving down the 410 at around 1:30 this afternoon and saw 4 Peel police cruisers speeding northbound with sirens on.
Just heard on the news that someone got shot at Mayfield & Inder Heights (between Kennedy and Hurontario) and they’re searching for a suspect.
I feel like there was a similar incident in that area a few months ago, but I can’t recall specifically.
My stepson (12) lost his pixel 9 last week, someone found it and powered it off.
It's been wiped and locked and won't be usable I guess unless it's sold internationally so just wondering if anybody's kid or something picked it up ya feel like returning it?
I know it's a shot in the dark due to whoever it was turning it off immediately but who knows, sometimes people don't suck.
Our cat jumped out of her carrier and ran away near Steeles / Hurontario in the plaza across from Lancashire (where the hakka cuisine is located)
Please PM me if found.
Hello my self and few of my co workers have been getting calls from these strange #s lately. Any help as to who have the ability & time to mask #s and randomly call ppl twice a day would be greatly appreciated. Thnx
been looking since forever they all seem to be in sauga
So tonight I was on Dixie stopped at the red light. Queen street running the other way and I was in the lanes going toward bcc. For some reason when the left turn arrow turned green my brain saw green and I pressed the gas🤦♀️. So I enter the intersection while the advance was green but the straight lanes were red. I realized and stopped but I was definitely in the intersection there was just enough room for those turning left to pass me. I felt so stupid never made that mistake before and I’m not sure how my brain tricked me. Thankfully I didn’t cause an accident and no one was hurt but I’m aware how bad that could have been.
I’m wondering if I should be expecting a red light ticket for this? I didn’t see a flash but clearly I wasn’t paying attention anyway. Definitely willing to pay the fine for my mistake but just wondering if I should be saving up financially for that.
Any insight appreciated
My understanding is the city's offer is 3% over 3 years. Does that mean the raise would be 1% per year for the next three years or 3% per year for the next 3 years? Or does it mean something else entirely?
Thank you for all of your responses!

Hello Friends, Just wanted to give you guys a heads of a possible scammer who hangs around in the Fortino’s Parking Lot near Bovaird Worthington. I’ve seen the same guy doing the same thing on the plaza at Chingcousy & Charlois.
It’s a Fat white guy who approaches you & gives you a sobby story on how his car broke down & need get home to his kids in Toronto.
He then asks for $100 cash, so he can get a cab & go home to his kids. He offers his watch in exchange for the money, saying the watch is worth $300. I told him, I got no money & started walking away, but he insists that we go inside Fortinos & I get cash back for him.
I then told him to stop scamming people & get lost. He then told me to “Go Fuck Yourself” & walked away.
I identify under the queer umbrella (aka still figuring it out), and was wondering if there are any spaces or communities that are lgbtq+ friendly? I want to build community and connect with others. Is brampton too small of a place to find such places?
Or if anyone reading this also identifies as lgbtq+, and would like to be friends, then please feel free to message 🙏🏾
I know for a fact someone made big money 💵 out of these ridiculous bicycles lane guards/railings (what do you even call them)?????
And I myself am an avid cyclist but I don’t think people in Brampton bike SO much that this unnecessary nonsense is needed, especially with Brampton’s growing population and growing traffic. Just last week they were painting new green lanes on the intersection when I was biking-I certainly did not find it helpful at ALL.
I want to ask this in order to see different perspectives because really, are people actually benefiting from this???
Hey, I have bad anxiety and I think I may have got a red light ticket from it today but I can't wait the 4 weeks.
I was exiting Bramalea go and turning left onto Steels. I swear I saw green and the car in front of me turned left, but on the corner of my eye I think I saw red and now I dont know if I hit a red light camera or not. I tried searching to see if there even is a red light camera in Bramela Go and there is but when I look at maps I can't find it nor do I see signs saying there is a red light camera there.
Does anyone know if there is a red light camera at the station?
Is there any sign of this strike ending? Has the city government even started negotiating with the workers? I’m a university student and I missed a vital midterm yesterday since I was relying on Brampton Transit to reach my uni. By the time I got to know about the strike, it was too late to even book an Uber or a Lyft. That too costs around $20-$35! Which is like spending a fortune (as uni student). There’s no way of getting around or go places since even the 502 to Mississauga doesn’t run anymore. When will this end? How long do these usually last?
?
Hey all,
Can we please brainstorm some ways as to how we can help put pressure on Patrick Brown to end this strike and provide Cupe 831 with a fair offer?
I support the cause and I think residents need to do what they can't to help the city workers.
Edit: I've already signed the Cupe letter in support and called the Mayor's office.
We need to organize. The sooner this ends with a fair deal, the better for all of us.
Here is some Clarity on the Cupe831 strike and ATUs stance on it .
somebody knocked over the mailbox ! Queen Street & Glenvale.... who ever did this they should be held accountable for it
I work nights. Was coming home in the morning when I found out about the strike. Lyft was charging $50 for a 10-minute drive. Luckily I got a lift from someone. Now I have to go to work again. So how are the buses running now? Are they still seriously delayed or not running at all because they were supposed to run despite the strike. So I get it that they couldn't get out in the morning but what about now?
Hi, I have an exam tomorrow and just now realized there is a strike going on. On the city of Brampton website it says that there may disruptions, but a friend of mine said they're completely shut down. I'm wondering which is true, if the former is, I'll just make sure to leave an hour early, but if the latter is true, I'll have to email my professor explaining the circumstances. I'm also confused because when i searched online, it doesn't show anything about delays. For reference I would be taking the Zum 502. Thank you in advance!
Specifically the 501.
Tried to order my standard best-shawarma-plate-in-town and found out sabroso is temporarily(?) closed? Marked as such on Google and their Instagram page but the message they wrote almost sounded like a final farewell.
Anyone know what's happening?
With any luck they're just taking a much needed vacation or relocating slightly. I'm still not recovered from my favorite banh mi place leaving suddenly (che Thuy nga) so fingers crossed sabroso will be back!
Really pissed off!!! it doesn't even make sense to work and paying 60% of the pay to transportation!!! I can understand they are protesting due to major factors but the Government should take the responsibility to assign someone and they should provide transportation like for atleast every hour. I don't know what to say...
Does anyone knows when will the buses resume?
