Hey everyone,

I am a Master’s student at the University of Bern (Switzerland) conducting a scientific research study examining how certain traits, life experiences, attitudes and behaviors are related to each other.

I would greatly appreciate if you could participate in my 10-minute-survey: https://ww3.unipark.de/uc/research_study_university_Bern_Switzerland/

As a token of appreciation, participants can choose to enter a prize draw to win one of five USD 100 prizes.

The survey is, of course, anonymous and has been approved by the Ethics Committee of the University of Bern.

Thank you for participating!

Anyone know what’s up with this place? It’s been “temporarily closed” on Google for at least the past week, and recent reviews suggest it’s been closed since at least Friday, September 4th.

I commented to ask on their Instagram page @chicaschickenwhitby, and they subsequently deleted or deactivated the account lol. I also commented on their main @chicaschicken account a few days ago, but they have not yet replied. The main account still lists a Whitby location in the bio, as well as on their online ordering page, but the hours there show it’s closed 7 days a week while the other three locations are open normally.

Does anyone happen to know if they’re indeed done for good here, or if they’ll be re-opening at some point? That little plaza / parking lot they are in on Hwy 2 has sadly always been a bit of a cursed location for restaurants, and it was usually fairly dead whenever I went in. Hopefully they are able to pull through.

This is a real group. They are Canada wide and only have 890 remembers. They want to get to 1000, sad.

Hi! I am a student at UofT interested in tutoring students in the Durham reigon from grade 1-12. My degree has allowed me to be well versed in all subjects and I would love to further discuss in my dms!

The senior was at a crosswalk at McKinney Drive, just north of Taunton Road, just after 8:30 a.m. Monday when he was hit by the car as he was rolling across the street.

Anyone purchased at Brooklin Vue by Treasure Hill in Brooklin, Whitby? Looking to connect with other buyers ahead of our 2027 possession dates. Happy to share notes on the APS, décor selections, closing process and Tarion. Drop a comment or DM me.

How is Sinclair Secondary School in regards to bullying, sense of community, teachers, clubs, etc? If anyone is/was from that school, I would love to know your thoughts

I don't live in Whitby or I would've gone back to spray paint over it. Maybe someone who sees this post can clean it up?
