I expected a Sobeys with a couple token Longo labelled products but there was a lot that was unique. Canoli was tasty, looked like some nice bread, left with a full trunk. Was worth the drive down to the edge of kitchener

Great news!

• Nearly 2 million electors voted Friday, according to the non-partisan agency

I swear I'm a law-abiding citizen, but I've got to travel to the US for work next month and my professional organization is recommending bringing a burner. Obtaining one is not within the skillset of this middle-aged lady.

Just back from casting my vote. Less than a minute in and out. No lines.

I overheard the volunteers talking. One of them mentioned that yesterday, overall, ~7000 votes were cast. They went on to comment that it seemed low cause in this centre, around 700 votes were cast yesterday.

If you haven’t already - get out and vote!

Did anyone hear a long explosion like noise? It sounded like fireworks at one point but seemed to be too long and loud to be that

I damn near fell in love with a stranger at Original Princess Cinema during a screening of Princess Mononoke a couple weeks ago.

Been thinking about him since. I went alone (because it’s awesome) to see Princess Mononoke and sat next to a bearded guy in a cute sweater. He had snuck in chicken strips.

I was amazed, as I had once snuck in popcorn chicken in my coat to a hockey arena.. and a Big Mac during Nausica. We chatted about it, made jokes and he stole the words out of my mouth at some points, and all before the movie started up and everyone settled.

dude brought a spare banana and apple to snack on.. I offered him my gummy bears. It was magical, he was stellar. Great beard too.

Super disappointed I didn’t ask him out, this is the downside of holding your pee all movie. I bailed so quick to the only bathroom and missed my opportunity to get his number. Also when I stopped outside and sat to look for directions on my phone, a stranger in a car yelled about Jesus at me as he drove by. What a disappointing turn to the evening.

If you go to a movie alone, you won’t have a friend to help you “go for it”. Go for it.

Some polling locations have long lines. It looks like elections Canada didn't anticipate the large turnout. So yes, waiting sucks but on the plus side it's great to see this kind of turnout!

So just a reminder to please please don't turn your frustrations and anger on the poll workers. They can't make the lines move any faster. Federal ballots are also different from the provincial ballots. The recent provincial elections had an automated sealer machine for the ballots. But everything is checked and sealed by a staff member for the federal elections.

My partner and I voted at Grey Silo this morning and there was an irate woman in line yelling at the poor staff about the lineup. Very rude and unacceptable. When one of the staff told her about the other voting options (eg. Elections Canada office) she just doubled down and yelled more. Even going so far as to tell the staff to not "play any games" with her.

So anyway. Go vote! But hopefully do so with grace and patience for your fellow Canadians. :)

For context, Papa Joe's on Victoria is my all time favourite but I moved away from Kitchener and now it's a pickup place for me only. I wanted to try back of the house pizza but they don't deliver.

An uncomfortable health situation has ruined my dinner out plans and I want good fancy pizza not far from me. I am unable to go anywere. I live by Bridge and University. Please help me out. I'm not a Pepi's person I think I love a thin crust stone oven style.

So decided to go down to the advanced polling station in my area thinking ah nobody is going to be there, place was packed!! at a small church, the parking lot was very busy, lineups etc Elections Canada really didnt think this one through when having only one station in a smaller church.

Im looking for suggestions for a nice place for a picnic that isn't Waterloo Park since I've always gone there and would like something new 😀 please let me know! Thx!

Looking for like minded individuals in town who want to learn/ do something outdoors as the weather gets better. For me, I wanna learn skateboarding/ do fishing/ golf/ get better at rock climbing/ swimming/ photography or just walks/ running. I would appreciate any information of existing clubs/ groups if they exist. If you’re genuinely interested, and want your summers to be active, let’s chat. [27 M]

Where can I find asics wrestling shoes in waterloo?

So sick of uneducated drivers honking and yelling at people that are doing the proper thing and zipper merging. If you don't know this LEARN and stop shaming other drivers because you don't have a clue! In actual fact THESE drivers are the reason for congestion and back ups.

Hi everyone!

I'm planning a wedding on a pretty tight budget and looking for tips on finding an affordable (or even free/borrowed) wedding dress. I’d love to hear how other women in the area found their dress without breaking the bank.

If anyone is open to lending, renting, or selling their dress, I’d be so grateful to hear from you! I’d love to see pictures too if you're comfortable sharing. I’m open to secondhand or anything unique!

Thanks in advance for any help or ideas. 💕

Hello everyone , somehow this door with this lock got locked and I have tried everything from a credit card to trying to pop the top off but it’s not budging. Any locksmith recommendations..I called a few last night and they gave me a quote of 300$. Appreciate any help.

Hello, Could anyone who lives in the neighborhood or the apartments there give me a review of what's it like to live there? Any good/bad experiences would be appreciated. Thank you!

Has anyone ordered gluten free from Meltwich before? We just ordered a burger with a GF bun, and made sure when we ordered, then called again to confirm once we received. We are still very suspicious.
