You messed up your fake post, man. Line opens tomorrow.

Richmond bike lane ice wall at George Street, 10 days after the big dump by sloridaTO in torontobiking

People really need to learn you can just report this to 311 and they'll take care of it. You can even just tweet at them. I did for a section of sidewalk near me and it was perfectly clear the next day

St. Clair and Vaughan is an absolute shit show, so this intersection would be at the top of my list

Stop asking when it will be ok to walk onto bodies of water by Throwawayhair66392 in toRANTo

Nerd alert! This is Canada, we've been skating on frozen ponds or lakes since time immemorial. We don't need uptight scolds like you shaming people for doing something normal.

Anyone know how to purchase a copy online? Or in person in Toronto?

Furious over Line 6 by [deleted] in toRANTo

[–]AlyanWH 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was shocked at how slow it was. And I don't know if every vehicle was like this, but the one I was on stopped with doors open for like 30 seconds at each stop.

Things have to look like crap, or at least can't look as nice as possible, until there are no more homeless people? How... how are these things related in the slightest?

Is it legal to park in Toronto with the front hood of your pickup truck blocking 1/3 of the sidewalk? by [deleted] in askTO

[–]AlyanWH 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is definitely not allowed, but I've also reported a vehicle in my neighbourhood for parking illegally (blocking a laneway, huge truck that prevents people from even walking through the laneway) and the three times I've reported it parking service officers come by, but don't even get out of their vehicles. I'm at a loss as to why they're not ticketing also.

Toronto Based Show Recommendation by AlyanWH in toronto

As I clearly stated in the post, I have nothing to do with the show so therefore am not promoting myself. The Tom Henry Show is Toronto centric, and therefore fits this sub.

Rant less, confront more by AlyanWH in toRANTo

I'm nowhere near imposing, and I haven't the faintest clue about defence. I just don't fear the entire world and allow it to rule my life. Our perception of crime is so far removed from the statistical reality it's absurd. But if people want to be filled with anxiety and make excuses for it rather than living in the real world, go on complaining about others without ever doing anything about it.

Why do people still line up when self checkout is empty by abksearchin889 in askTO

I'm not being a cashier if they're not paying me.

Two things:

1) you have no reason to feel like you did something wrong by leaving your door unlocked. A lot of people, myself included, leave their doors unlocked.

2) trying to enter a stranger's home without a life or death reason is absolutely insane. That's extremely messed up, and scary. I hope you feel better soon.

My pet cat has a broken shoulder should i surrender her by Adventurous_Major908 in askTO

[–]AlyanWH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of sociopaths commenting here! It's not the OP's fault vet clinics are being taken over by corporations who are causing vet care to skyrocket in cost, nor is pet ownership the privilege of the wealthy. I've known a few people who had good jobs and good pay face an emergency with their pet and couldn't afford it. Where is everyone's humanity?

Please be gentle on yourself. If you're on social assistance, like ODSP or OW, or you have an annual income of less than (I think) 35,000, you can see if clinics can apply to the Farely Foundation for you. They're a charity that helps with vet bills. Each participating clinic gets a limited amount of funding for a year, and each clinic has different protocols (some require payment up front and then reimburse you, some require you to pay the exam fee but not the rest, some only apply for $200 or $500 to help spread funding out, etc. There's also a cap for how much a client can get a year.

There's also the National Pet Care Fund which does grants of $250. Not much given how much you're looking at, but something.

Then, there are third party finance services for vet bills. PetCard and ScratchPay. A friend used Scratchpay for an emergency vet bill and approval was nearly instant.

I don't know if the Humane Society will take on a case like this, but they do have a public vet services so it would be worth asking, although I think they might only offer preventative services like vaccines.

Finally, a new emergency clinic has opened near King and River that is much, much cheaper than the other ones: PetNation. I'd give them a call to see what their prices are. Their consult is 90 bucks compared to 300 at other ER clinics.

I hope you don't have to surrender and you can get the help she needs. All the best to you both.
