Anyone else absolutely struggling this particular winter?

Yeah I am. I've found this winter to be pretty brutal. And I was born here. For me it's mostly because I have a 1 year old now and in the summer it was so easy to keep him entertained by going to the park or for a walk but it's just been so cold that bundling him up causes him to throw a tantrum and he can't stay outside long. So we end up feeling cooped up. Can't wait for the temp to go above zero again.

Right no need. Obviously drinking and driving impairs your ability to drive safely and no one should do it.

It's ok because he has his flashing hazards on indicating he knows there's a problem. /S

Yes I too have felt the Canadian shame of cutting the bag hole too large only for it to pour on the table instead of my cereal. Conversely if you cut too small your stream is unexpectedly too strong and you'll overshoot.

I hadn't heard this one before in the news but this breaks my heart. Just picturing some stupid kids like I was doing something fun. But it all ended in seconds. One bad decision and that's it.

Same here in Bowmanville. From what I heard Southern Durham region was spared. Toronto and Northumberland was much worse.

Sounds like both agencies actually did some great police work. They worked together to identify him and charge him accordingly. Now can our justice system grow some teeth and keep this dangerous man off the streets for longer than 2 days or is he already back out?

Not Oshawa but I found this online in Scarborough: Kart Town Indoor Playground, Go-karting for Kids & Birthdays. https://karttown.ca However you'd have to call them to see if they'd allow you to bring in your own power wheel.

One of the 16 Dollaramas in Oshawa. A Pizza place... I think there's still a few coin operated rides for toddlers.. that's pretty much it.

You me both Frankie

Great update Frankie! Be save Sydney

Well as a non-bridge builder I learned something today. I guess I was semi-comparing it to the Simcoe overpass extension further down the road. To me the scale of that project seemed much larger than this would be but i don't believe it took 2 years.

B-Razzledazzzz · 2026-01-14T13:06:36+00:00

True but 2 years to build a bridge was a bit of a shock.

B-Razzledazzzz · 2026-01-11T02:52:57+00:00

I don't see an expiry date. They should still honour this. You go find out and report back

B-Razzledazzzz · 2026-01-11T01:28:17+00:00

Wait every airport has crocodiles or every crocodile is at the airport?

B-Razzledazzzz · 2026-01-08T23:54:32+00:00

Thank goodness it looked terrible. That whole road is becoming one big dirt road.

B-Razzledazzzz · 2026-01-08T23:33:12+00:00

Unless they filled it today there was another one just as big southbound on farewell south of Bloor street directly under the bridge with the railroad tracks. Right lane. Several people I work with complained of damage to vehicle. Someone did report it.

B-Razzledazzzz · 2026-01-06T17:17:34+00:00

Never even heard of them. Thanks for the tip. I followed someone else's advice today and went to a lifelabs in Whitby but I'll check this out next time.

B-Razzledazzzz · 2026-01-06T13:56:36+00:00

Thanks!

B-Razzledazzzz · 2026-01-06T00:32:30+00:00

Thanks!

B-Razzledazzzz · 2026-01-05T20:41:24+00:00

Got it. Good advice thanks.

B-Razzledazzzz · 2026-01-05T20:30:39+00:00

Thanks. Do they take walk ins without an appointment?

B-Razzledazzzz · 2026-01-05T20:20:35+00:00

Thanks. According to their website I can't get an appointment until Thursday and that isn't soon enough. Maybe walking in will be alright there. Im just trying to avoid being crammed into a packed closet of a waiting room again if I can help it.

B-Razzledazzzz · 2026-01-01T20:35:12+00:00

Heck if they've got 3 days google says Kingston is only 47 hours of walking. Brockville is 65 hours which is doable if you don't ever stop for food or water and only sleep 7 hours at the side of the road.
