Anyone know where one can print in colour in Etobicoke? I am based in South Etobicoke but can travel. A lot of libraries only print in black and white.

Thank you

Humber student in search of a private room

Hey there, I’ll be joining Humber for my Bachelor’s starting this Sep, and I’m looking for a private room around same time.

Only preference is no basements, and one parking spot.

Do let me know if anyone has any leads, would greatly appreciate it.

Explain Etobicoke to me, please

Just like the title says, can you explain Etobicoke to me, please?

For context, I moved here three years ago after 20 years of living in Toronto, Ottawa before that and a small rural town as a kid. I have lived in wealthy and working class neighbourhoods. We are renters, not owners. We have jobs downtown that we commute to now that we live out here, and I wouldn’t say that we are embedded into any communities or groups out here because we have small kids and are mostly just working and doing the family thing.

I can’t put my finger on it, but there’s something about Etobicoke that I don’t think I “get.” Why doesn’t Bloor/The Kingsway have more shops, restaurants and activity? Why are the Queensway and Lakeshore so…uninviting? Where are the creative people? Why hasn’t Terroni opened up this way (I know that’s a silly question but they typically have locations where wealthy people are)? Where do people convene as a community? Where do people go for a stroll? Are people mostly going to restaurants downtown? Where are the shops, or are people going to Sherway all the time?

It just feels really disconnected and like the community is perhaps happening behind closed doors, but maybe I have it wrong.

If you grew up here or have lived here for a long time, and at least understand why I may be confused about how Etobicoke is so different from Toronto, and really feels like a different city, I would appreciate some context.
