Hi, i have a very old external hard drive from 2008 that i would like to see if i can get repaired. Where can I get this done?

It is so old and i think must have a lot of my old legal documents on it...like my passport, tax info, etc but more importantly to me, a whack load of old photos!

I was loading groceries into our car with my husband and baby in the Fairview Walmart parking lot. A young woman approached us asking for help with a taxi parked near her. She held out two $5 bills saying her cab driver won’t accept cash and her fare is only $7, and asked if we could pay with our card.

Something felt off so I said we don’t have time and need to feed our baby. She said ‘oh’ and hopped back in the taxi. The taxi drove around the parking lot some more.

When we got in the car I googled it and it’s a known scam. What happens is they’ll either switch out your card with a fake one or steal your card info. Just google ‘taxi scam’ for more info.

BEWARE!!

Hey everyone, what’s your experience with bulk waste pick up?

Trying to get rid of a bed frame, but they didn’t pick it up. Called 311 and they said there’s still a chance before end of the day. Seems pretty late now though. Just wondering if people ever have issues with bulk waste. Haven’t taken advantage of it before.

Thanks!

Hi I started a comment in Burlington/ON.

Why did people reply from Vermont and ask why my message was there?

I sent original question here!

Been building up my lists to replace any US product with Canadian.

I wanted to buy a sticker for car "Shop Canadian"

Does anyone know where I can get onw?

I saw online ETSY is selling them which is odd as they are an American co.

Go Team Canada! Save your hard working money, buy local.

Thank you good peeps 😃

I had my 2023 sequioa stolen out of my driveway on Friday. Just a post to tell everyone to stay alert! Also, if you see a white one - 😂

Currently looking for stories/people who have been affected by hate crime or speech during election seasons, particularly recently in the current provincial one.

If you, or someone you know, have been impacted by hate during the election season, please comment or pm me!

I’m hoping to write a story on this increasing trend, any resources/suggestions ppl have is super appreciated!

Anyone who visits Mount Nemo somewhat regularly and can advise when it would be a little less busy? Thanks!

I’m looking for a reliable and detail-oriented cleaner to come every two weeks or every four weeks for regular cleaning. Ideally, someone with experience, good reviews, and their own supplies (but I can provide if needed).

The space is in Burlington 2 story house, and the main tasks would include:
General cleaning (dusting, vacuuming, mopping)
Kitchen & bathroom deep cleaning

Please tell me i'm not the only one that has seen that video of those two guys talking outside of Walmart in Burlington, Canada talking about how boring it is. Can anybody help me find that video, I've been looking all over for it.

Looking to buy a race bib - please let me know if you have one you don't want to use anymore! TIA

Why would Canada ever sign a trade agreement in the future with the USA ever again? They just broke the agreement we had in place, and this was the agreement the brain dead monkey negotiated! This the the 2nd time they haven’t honoured a trade agreement! Screw the USA, their word, means nothing. Such dishonourable, despicable behavior.

I work at a hospital on Third Lane. My co-workers and I often order Domino's for work and on weekends. Since Trump imposed tariffs, we’ve decided to stop supporting American food chains and are looking for alternatives. Can anyone recommend a good local place?

Hey! Any recommendations for a fridge repair company? Fridge/ freezer are not cooling as well as they should or sometimes not at all, with ice machine not working. I’ve done the YouTube trouble shoot. Any recommendations would be appreciated. Thanks!

Hi, I have a mid size SUV. I am looking for help on following topics:

1. Is it worth buying winter tires at this moment and installing them? I am asking this since it’s February beginning but I am getting a good deal with Canadian Tier on Michelin X Ice Snow SUV Winter tires. I don’t mind buying and installing them next season as well.

2. I am thinking of buying tires from Kal Tire since they price match Canadian tier prices costco is quoting $ 1,177 while Canadian Tire is quoting $ 923.96.

Reason for Kal Tire from my research shorter wait times to get appointment, lifetime flat repairs, tire balancing, etc. I can travel to their location in Hamilton.

3. I am planning to do this buy rims on fb marketplace but I am overwhelmed with the different specifications of rim size - size, bolt pattern, offset, and Center bore. I understand if I match other things except Center bore I can use something like a hub centric rings but no clue much they costs and how much do mechanics charge to install them.

I don’t want to overpay this is a big hole in budget thus looking for most economical workable solutions.

Please help me with your experiences and recommendations.

Definitely looking to do my part with buying Canadian. Would love if grocery stores could start placing stickers or something on products that are Canada based. I know some stuff but with so many products, I think it's going to help people like myself.

Planning a new build in Burlington and wanted to see if anybody has recommendations or experience with Bricklayers in Burlington.

Thanks!

Had a neighbour around the corner from my old place that would hang his Trump 2024 Flag from his garage everyday for months leading up to the election.

Couldn’t help but wonder tonight what the guy is thinking about the Mango Mussolini coming for Canada now.

Hello Folks,

We are thinking of moving to your beautiful city. Can you recommend any honest and good realtors based on your personal experience? I've reached out to two realtors online but didn't have a good experience. They just went radio silent.
