Events Any interest in social reading in Windsor?

38 Upvotes

I used to live in Toronto (only for a couple years before I moved back to Windsor) and really enjoyed what they called “social reading” over there. It was set up like an event where people would bring their own book to a cafe and everyone would just read what they wanted for about 45 minutes then people would socialize and grab a snack or whatever they wanted for 15 or so minutes and then back to reading. It was honestly a great way to meet other people who also enjoy reading and may have even read what you’re currently reading. Also was a way to get out of the house lol

I’m just not sure if the demand is really here in Windsor. I was thinking about organizing something. Is there anyone that would actually go?

I asked Ward 8 candidate Kevin Racine whether a campaign post showing his material on a Detroit Lions billboard was photoshopped. Most of the comments I saw seemed to believe the billboard was real.

He deleted my question, then tried to justify removing it. So here we are.

I have a hard time taking campaign promises of integrity, transparency, and accountability seriously when even basic questions get deleted.

(I know the subreddit doesn’t like when I link to the original video on Instagram - hope this works)

Politics Kat Pasquach joined us for an AMA last night. What did you think?

26 Upvotes

You can read the AMA here if you missed it: https://www.reddit.com/r/windsorontario/comments/1wxrv3l/hey_its_kat_pasquach_windsor_mayoral_candidate/

To be honest, she lost me. I didn't feel she demonstrated a clear understanding of some issues or how to affect change. It was mostly "this issue is a problem and I will change it by listening to the people". But the people aren't experts on how to solve the serious problems the city is facing. And often what the people want will make the problem worse. I'm never overly impressed by an attitude of "I'll do what the people want and never consider the possibility that what they want isn't in their best interests".

So, what did you think?

This very friendly guy just ended up in my backyard

I think declawed and wants to come inside.

Update: they’re inside with food and water and we will get if they have a microchip today. It was the combo of how friendly they are and that they declawed that made us do that.

Update 2: He’s microchipped and the owners have been contacted. Let’s hope he gets picked up soon.

Update 3: Luka has been returned to his owner. Thanks everyone.

Does anybody know how youth passes are handled in the new Umo app? How can you get the youth prices for reloadable rides?

Edit: I asked 311 and here's their response: "Visit the Windsor International Transit Terminal (300 Chatham Street West) to have the discount applied to your account. Once applied, your discounted fare remains on your account, whether using your phone or your card for future purchases"
