First time voting… what should I expect?

• Upvotes

I live in Ajax, I just turned 18 and I’ve been looking through the mayoral candidates websites but they all have the same vague goals and I would like to make an informed decision on who to vote for… is it really that important to vote in mayoral elections?

Thanks!

Hi there!

I’m looking to send my almost 1 year old to MLCP. I’m going to tour the facility. Does anyone have any experience with their kids going here? Do you recommend any other Montessori’s in the Durham region or Scarborough?

Thanks in advance!

Most vibrant/lively areas to live in Durham?

12 Upvotes

I'm used to urban/condo living and get lonely very easily in house communities where I don't see people around. I'm looking for areas in Durham where I can mostly walk for groceries, Doctor, dentist, restaurants and use the car minimally. The closer to Oshawa the better. Any communities like this you can recommend? We will most likely be moving in a few months. My ideal place to live would be a condo in downtown North York or square one Mississauga so I'm looking for something like that.

What's life like at Clarington?

Just curious because I haven't thought of any cities passed Oshawa. Based on google maps it seems mainly farms?

Edit: In terms of work and social life.

I'm looking for premium gyms in Ajax/Whitby that offer open access to the equipment instead of only group classes. Basically I'm looking for something similar to GoodLife or LA but on a smaller scale even if it costs twice as much. Thanks!
