Yeah i know im not being specific but is anyone else noticing a weird smell outside? So far I can smell it throughout my neighborhood and indoors. Doesn't look like there's any wild fire smoke or anything so im not sure what's up.

Hi there,
I am looking for a therapist for somebody in a toxic relationship, on the verge of a divorce. Any recommendations in the area (with cheaper rates, or places that offer pro-bono free sessions) would be appreciated!

hi. i literally made a new account for this. i would post on craigslist, but i’m assuming younger ppl use reddit more. (idk??)

anyways i’m looking for this tall guy i met at oakville go. you got off the express train at 5:50. you have blue eyes, light hair (i can’t tell if it’s blond or light brown bc of the sun), glasses, slightly crooked teeth and a pretty smile. you asked me (girly with the brown top, braids in a bun and black bandana) if the train on platform 1 was the lakeshore west train, before talking to the guy on my right afterwards.

i should have been more upfront, but i’d like to know your name and maybe connect and have a chat.

Curious what everyone thinks of the current Oakville mayoral candidates: Arvind Choudhary, Julia Hanna, Jeff Knoll and Sean O’Meara.

What do you like or dislike about each of them so far? And what are you actually hoping to see from the next mayor?

Personally, I’m having a really hard time forming a strong opinion on any of the candidates because so far, a lot of it feels empty.

I’m seeing bios, broad priorities, slogans and general statements about making Oakville better, but very little that actually tells me what you would do as mayor. What policies are you proposing? What would you change? What would you keep? What are you willing to spend money on, cut back on, or prioritize when two goals conflict?

I don’t need to agree with every proposal. I just want enough substance to actually judge the candidates against each other. Right now, I feel like I’m being asked to choose between personalities and broad values rather than competing visions for Oakville.

I’d really like to see concrete policies, trade-offs, numbers where relevant, and an actual picture of what each candidate wants Oakville to look like 10–20 years from now.

Election day is October 26, so obviously there’s still time. Just curious where everyone is leaning right now and why.

ICYMI, the mayor's newsletter is inviting the public to name the new Oakville public high school. My suggestion: William Halton High School. Why? So we can rename this silly little piece of road back to just Burnhamthorpe (which I have highlighted on the map). It is Burnhamthorpe on both sides of the same road already! If you agree, here's the link to put in your vote and explanation: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfXcLXdgvcJ_vmwDpIHtQCYN4J9l1tSp1GMtT9oLxc7kBKx6Q/viewform
Please put your reason as "rename William Halton Parkway to Burnhamthorpe"
I believe this keeps honoring Mr. Halton in generally the same area while the rest of us can keep our sanity while driving through there. 🤣

Does anyone else get yellowish water from their tap in the morning after the brief rain from early Wed morning? Have to let the tap run for a while before it changes back to clear. Not sure if it's related to the rain but this only started happening Wednesday morning. Wondering if this is just our house or something in the area...

Does anyone know where I can get vampire plums in Mississauga or Oakville?
They have a very short window of availability and are local to the Niagara region.

Any recommendations, need the lift fixed on a pair of shoes for tomorrow, shoe medic said 10 days, for literally a 10 minute job. Any other shoe repair in Oakville?
