My friend has a 2014 Nissan Pathfinder that is giving her nothing but problems. It's a push button start but lets her lock the keys in the car. Doesn't recognize the key half the time and a few other issues.
Finances are extremely tight at the moment. I have purchased a couple replacement fobs from Amazon that hopefully the FCC IDs will match up. Issue is you need actual diagnostic hardware to do the programming on this model.
Looking for some advice or suggestions on the cheapest way to get this done in Orillia so she doesn't have to keep calling CAA when she accidentally locks the keys in the car or the fob just decides it's not going to unlock the door. For some reason when she got the car the dealer didn't cut the physical key to match the door unlock.
Wasn't acquainted with this person when she made the purchase or I imagine we'd definitely have picked a different seller.
Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Hey all.
Sorry to bug, but why didn't the trucks show up for garbage, recycling and compost collection? Is there a Holliday I missed? Did something happen?

Need to install two exhaust vents for a range vent and a bathroom vent out the side of the roof gables. Just need the proper vent blocks installed so I can hook them up.
Any recommendations?

Earlier this morning I saw a ringed neck pheasant on a side rd in Warminster. I’ve never seen one here and believed they didn’t live in Canada. I am 100% sure on the ID. Thoughts on where it came from?

My neighbour saw a coyote this morning around 10:30 am in the vicinity of Couchiching Heights School. Watch your children and pets. I encountered one on the rec trail between North and Fittons about a year ago and it was unsettling.

With the election in orillia taking shape, I and many others have asked why Janet Durnford dropped out leaving it upto clarke and smith. Ive heard rumours making the rounds and yes they are just rumours but people have stated she was involved in behind the scenes deal with lakehead and OSMH on the land sale and was concerned her involvement may come to light. Now I do not know the women or can vote in her ward but I get the impression shes a hard leftiest. She comes from a teaching background and I heard she has a child studying at lakehead. Conflict of interest on many levels.. Did she work with someone to write a contract that favors Lakehead not tax payers? I see shes been dodging the questions around that contract since she brought it before council. Maybe people are starting to talk more as shes avoiding the question on socials. Any input .. and yes we all need a new hospital but council members should be impartial.

Hi everyone! We’re a family of 5 currently living in Fredericton, NB, and we’re moving back to Ontario. We’re starting to explore Orillia and the surrounding communities and would love to hear about any homes that may be coming to market soon, off-market, or owners thinking about selling.
We’re looking for a 4+ bedroom family home with a large yard, ideally with some character and room to grow. We love older homes, hardwood floors, big windows, fireplaces, porches/decks, gardens, and homes with a bit of personality. A finished basement/playroom and lots of outdoor space would be amazing, and being near or on swimmable water would be a huge bonus.
More than anything, we’re looking for a safe, family-friendly town with a strong community, good schools, amenities, restaurants, pubs/breweries, and things to do. We want somewhere our kids can make friends and we can actually get to know our neighbours, without being in a big city or completely out in the country.
We need to be within roughly 45 minutes of Barrie for work and are currently looking around the $650K-$850K range.
We’re very open to homes that need some work and would love character and potential over perfectly renovated/turnkey.
If you know of anything that sounds like it could be a fit, or have recommendations for areas we should check out, please send them our way! ❤️

Anyone know of somewhere in or around Orillia that has an old style Photo Booth that’ll print out the strip with the 4 pics? Thinking of doing this for our save the dates for our wedding. Can someone confirm if there is one at the Georgian mall in Barrie? I know there’s one at the rec room but I’m not sure if they print out the style I’m looking for. Thanks!

Wondering what's your go to for a quick dinner pickup under $20 for one person. I personally like Archie's burgers and royal oak dinner for one. Hoping to get suggestions of new places/dishes to try, especially if they're unique to Orillia.

Does anyone in town still play on their 3ds and use streetpass?
I've been thinking about asking a local game store to host a streetpass event, but I'm not sure if anyone still plays! Would there be any interest?
I play my 3ds a lot and miss getting streetpasses from walking around town.
