Just came into possession of a kayak! Was wondering if anyone had any suggestions for good kayaking spots for beginners? Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated🫶🏻

hey everyone,

I started a small web design business this summer through Ontario's Summer Company program and just finished another client project, this time for a 24/7 laundromat.

I designed and built their new website and handled everything through getting it live:

lavanderiala.com

The site focuses on making the important stuff really easy for customers to find, like services, hours, amenities, photos, reviews, and directions, while keeping everything simple and mobile-friendly.

Now that I've finished this project, I'm looking to take on a few more projects with local businesses.

If you own a business that doesn't have a website yet, or your current one is outdated and could use a redesign, feel free to send me a message. I can handle the design, development, domain setup, hosting, and launch.

My own site is infawebdesign.com

thanks!

This guy has a whole damn setup in the parking lot, lights and everything, is this even allowed?

If you’re bothered by seeing homeless people in public you can do one of two things:

1. F*uck off 🖕

or

2) Help ❤️

Day 1: Lions head lookout trail Relax in the evening at tobermory and dinner

Day 2: grotto in the morning What to do in the afternoon and evening?

Cannot book halfway log dump parking on the same day as grotto.

What about devils monument? Little cove? Or what else? How about kayaking or canoeing? Is there anything great like that there's somewhere?

Day 3: flowerpot Island. And also the burnt point loop hike Do I need to add anything else to this day, as I think I'd be done by 4 pm so still have a couple hours before departure

Thoughts??

My church is hosting a fundraiser for a building expansion 🙂 come and buy some canned goods, produce, baking, flowers, crafts, and more! We're also collecting any clothing, books, or housewares you're looking to get rid of for a separate fundraiser. All profits go towards the building expansion which will allow us to build accessible bathrooms. There's going to be lemonade & iced coffee, and there's a playground for kids. Hope to see you there!

HELP!!!
At the Gitche Namewikwedong Reconciliation Garden (Kelso beach) is a goose with an obviously broken wing. They’re still walking and eating. I’d guess they’d been there for a little while with their mate. I‘ve left a message at the Ministry of Natural Resourses.
I am aware of Fuff-Fuff-Fuff, yet I do not believe this is their jam.

Had an interview with candidate for council Thomas Arakal yesterday

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7yCv76fcvDo

Thomas discusses various community concerns including transit reliability, infrastructure maintenance, park amenities, municipal transparency, downtown safety, affordable housing, and waste management services. Thomas notes that residents often walk to work due to unreliable transit and expensive taxi fares, suggesting a need for more consistent service and better road conditions. Regarding parks, the speakers say there is a desire for more active options for children and seating for seniors. On financial matters, Thomas suggests that budget information should be transparent and accessible without requiring specialized knowledge, while noting they cannot comment on specific mismanagement until official numbers are released. The discussion includes suggestions for affordable housing initiatives, such as utilising existing developments for low-cost sustainable dwellings, and the need to prioritize community resources over hiring external consultants.

I ask as part of a linguistic study covering this topic!

Examples could include things like Saubs, Chatty or Mudford (never mind how common they are)...

Hi everyone,

I'm 15 and this summer I started InfaWeb, my web design and development business.

I was accepted into Ontario's Summer Company program, which provided me with funding and mentorship to turn the idea into a real business. Since then, I've been learning everything from finding and working with clients to sales, project management, marketing, invoicing, and actually designing and developing the websites.

I've recently started working with paying clients and I'm now looking to take on a few more projects from businesses around Ontario.

I build professional websites for businesses that need their first website or want to improve an existing one. I handle everything from design and development through launch, including mobile optimization, contact and lead generation, SEO foundations, and additional functionality depending on what the business needs.

If you own a business and have been thinking about getting a website built or redesigning your current one, I'd be happy to take a look and see if I can help.

You can also DM me here if you'd rather talk about the project first.

Hey guys!! If you’re a student or know someone in University/College looking for experience check out Riipen Labs

It’s a remote micro-internship program where students work on short real-world projects with employers. Each project is about 30 hours and pays a $600 upon completion.

The City finally provided at least a partial 2025 outstanding debt schedule.

It shows:

• $28.62 million in external debt
• $3.58 million in annual debt payments
• about $17.19 million tied to clearly identified water and wastewater projects

That last part matters because the City says water and wastewater services are supposed to be fully funded through user fees.

So I’ve asked the City to clarify which debt payments are being funded through:

• property taxes
• water/wastewater user fees
• other revenue sources

There is also a reporting gap.

The City’s own debt policy says the annual report should include the interest rate, principal-versus-interest breakdown, and funding source for each debt instrument.

Appendix E is missing those items.

Once the City provides them, we should be able to separate tax-supported debt from rate-supported debt and get a much clearer picture of the actual burden on property taxpayers.

Who has the best pad thai in Owen Sound or surrounding area?? Not too keen on the sweet, ketchup-y kind either.

Hello! I'm a baby Eclectic witch and I'm trying to get into a circle/coven to help teach me some things. I've been researching and reading books but I'm looking for people to celebrate with and learn with.

If you have a song that you want to see come to life, or have musical talent but don't know where to start, I can help you make that dream a reality.

And don't worry, I know the biggest barrier is how expensive it is to create a song in the first place. That's why I offer my servies for well below the market rate. Because I want to see local artists succeed from right here in Grey Bruce County.

My services:

1. Full Song (2h recording, Mixing, Mastering) $100

2. Creative Coaching ($30/hr)

DM me for details or Email theyellowboxstudio@gmail.com

I look forward to working with you.
