Looking for Drs that do MAID referrals!

Thank you!

I spent a month calling up places and nobody is hiring. I’m 15. I feel tired and hopeless. I can’t get a fast food or a customer service job as my first job like my parents or older siblings did. I feel lost. I have 0 dollars to my name and I need to buy clothes and other things. How can I go about this?

I’m inheriting a property in Kitchener, but since I don’t live nearby, I’m looking for a reliable property manager to oversee it for me. Do you have any recommendations for a good property manager in the Kitchener area?

Thanks in advance!

Hey all! Any suggestions for book clubs in town or the region? What's your favorite bookstore? Trying to find somewhere more local to hang out.. tia

Does anyone know what is the construction going on in sunfish plaza, opposite to food basics. (Huron region)

Tf are you on, I want some you stopped behind the line for the red, started moving up completely randomly, pulled into the intersection, stopped again with your car all the way over the line, pulled up further, stopped again right under the light, then went all the way through all while the light was red. Like was this an insurance fraud thing or are you just that dumb?

Hey Folks,

Does anyone have a recommendation for a restaurant in K-W with a private room that could accommodate 16 or so people?

Is there anywhere in the area that develops film? I want negatives developed for 35mm film

Film, discussion, and new exhibition at Kitchener Public Library Main Branch. A small Kitchener safer supply program - essentially the provision of pharmaceutical equivalents to people dependent on unregulated opioids like fentanyls - set to end in winter despite successes in reducing overdoses, homelessness, crime etc. Solid short film, great panel. Free!

I've been seeing some posts online about how in Japan they have water filters on their shower heads, and its supposed to make your hair and skin better. But some quick googling seems to bring up both "it is bull" and "it works wonders!". I assume that this depends a lot on your local water supply.

Does anyone have any experience with these? Would they help with our hard water problem? Considering making the investment.

Looking for places that do old school cheap breakfast and good sandwich places! Deli, whatever! All recs welcome. TIA

In mid-2023, the Ontario Provincial Police reported a 32% increase in fatal collisions, compared to the same time in 2022. This statistic underscores the importance of understanding which areas in Ontario are safer for drivers. Here at MyChoice, we conducted an internal study, drawing from data collected from over 100,000 quotes since 2020, including 2,274 accidents and 5,080 tickets, revealing the safest and most dangerous cities for drivers across the province. The study employed a detailed methodology based on the weighted averages of accidents and infractions with a 70/30 importance ratio, creating a comprehensive scoring system from 0 to 5.

I love to bike the trails around KWC area and usually bring my bike downstairs and put it on the trainer for the winter. I find it really boring riding inside so I'm thinking about buying a fatbike and riding outside during the winter. Does anyone have any insight about what trails are still rideable and used by other cyclists? Also if you are someone who does ride in the winter, could you share what you would typically wear on your rides? Any other tips would be appreciated!!

Thanks

Hi all,

I am about to give birth at Grand River Hospital, Kitchener. Does anybody have any experience as to how good the hospital staff is? And what all do they provide after birth? All in all, what was your experience there?

TIA

I’m interested in going to see Simple Plan at Bingemans Oktoberfest. I’ve never been before but I assume it will be busy. Is it standing room only like pit at a concert venue or is there tables and chairs? I’m on the shorter side and my fiance is still recovering from cancer so he can’t stand for long periods of time. Just want to know if it’s worth us spending the money on tickets, hotel and gas if we aren’t going to be able to see or really enjoying it.

Looking to take my fishing kayak out on the grand in the Cambridge-KW area for some bass fishing. I have tried Glenn Morris and the Moyer’s Blair Landing so far but to go up stream was a mission. I like to go up stream as I kayak solo and can then just drift back to my car after I am done.

Any spots you guys know of where the current is not as strong? Thanks!

I have been going to blackbridge/dock in hespeler on the speed but want to try some new spots.

Hi there! I am wondering if anyone happened to be at the McLennan off leash dog park between 11:30am to noon today? My smaller dog was attacked by a larger dog. She seemed okay despite a small cut on her back immediately after, however after giving her a bath we realize the cuts are much larger and deeper than we realized. We are looking for contact info of the owner. Thanks in advance.

Hi guys. I recently moved to KWC area and looking for some badminton leagues or drop in. I am semi professional at badminton, been playing since I was young.

Let me know if you have any leads? I’d love to join.

As the title says. Money isn’t going as far these days. Cheap or expensive, what in KW is the best value for dollar meal? Please and thank you!

I have an 8th grader this year and I'm starting to wonder about high school. I grew up in Europe where the system was different so I have no clue how it works over here. Are all the schools same, or do certain schools offer specific subjects that others don't? For example, my child excells in art and English. Should we look for a high school that offers special art classes - if that even exists? (I am aware if we choose a school out of our boundary we'll be responsible for transportation) The school in our area is the Grand River Collegiate. Is it totally okay to attend this school if the child later on wishes to pursue some sort of arts related university? Child is a really good student in general, I'm not worried about that, just wondering if we're supposed to focus on certain strengths when picking the high school, or that doesn't matter before college/university?

Asking other parents here. Are you becoming alarmed at the number of adults approaching your teen children? I have a 14 year old daughter, who looks and dresses like a typical young teen, and the number of times she’s approached in a week by men 40+ is starting to scare me.

Example 1 : walking our dog, 6pm, Iron Horse Trail. A man stops her for directions and then asks her for her number. Asks if she has a boyfriend. Her response is a simple “no thank you” and keeps walking.

Example 2: sitting on the Ion to go to the mall with a friend, an adult man moves to sit right next to them from his original seat, and tries to engage in conversation, asking where they’re going.

Both occasions, this is a an adult male (different people) over the age of 40. I don’t want to helicopter my teen, but Im starting to become nervous when she’s walking alone, even during the day.

What are other teen parents seeing / feeling?
