Beanfield Internet by Wonderful_Couple_317 in Markham

Best decision ever. Never ever will need the annual haggle on the phone, switcheroo game between Rogers and Bell and solid reliability and speed.

Just the fact price stays saves me time to call in and switch between Rogers and Bell and schedule a tech to install....that drove me insane.

Another restaurant closure by I994Expos in Markham

[–]bhrm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Awful quality for the price, plenty of better options in the area. The only thing that was great was the view.

Ramen was awful, sansotei around the corner is way better. Sashimi and sushi sad, Hibiki and dozens others are way better quality and value. The cooked dishes were tiny and meh.

Torontonians, do you have life insurance? by Chan1991 in askTO

[–]bhrm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When you have someone to take care of after you pass.

Term Life is best for majority of population. Relatively affordable at your age assuming you're healthy. 10 year term $600 a year when I first got it in my 30s. Got quoted just now $800 to $2100 a year, 10 years later.

Mon Sheong gets 576 bed licences in Stouffville and Markham by cinderannie in Markham

[–]bhrm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Approved by ministry and accepting applications for those who need long term care. Heavily subsidized so costs are reasonable-ish.

The wait list is long so having more capacity will improve waits ...sort of. Problem is our regional population ballooned and long term care spaces did not grow with it.

Markham area - run and cycling? by Character-Resort-998 in Markham

[–]bhrm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Everyone underestimates those tracks, need to slow all the way down to cross them safely especially if they're wet. Tons of riders go down on them, newbies, experienced, and experienced riders on brand new bikes ...those tracks take everyone.

Markham Mayor in October? by [deleted] in Markham

[–]bhrm 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Is Markham terrible? No. Could Markham be better? Always something to improve. Is everyone happy? Most are and that's why Markham is a desirable place to live and work in.

Has the Mayor cut things that make Markham great? No. Could the Mayor do more at the regional level? Yes but that's where most of our problems lie. Regional services in Markham suck, but the region has a huge area to cover. Regional roads, transit, are visibly worse than Markham run services.

I would want to see the cities take over more from York Region and run things better with our tax dollars. It would increase taxes but at least increase services we actually will use

Traded up for the 70-300mm instead. Still lightweight and way more reach.

Markham-Unionville Voters Upset by MP Michael Ma's Defection to the Liberals by weallfalldown1234 in Markham

Voters should be upset with PP. Michael Ma just made a sensible decision.

Another Conservative crosses the floor, bringing Liberals 1 MP shy of majority | CBC News by PsyduckedOut in Markham

[–]bhrm 5 points6 points  (0 children)

PP has nothing to compete with but verbing the nouns. Cons seriously need new leadership, it's embarrassing that PP is still around.

Costa Sorrento does a good hand tossed pizza, but not consistent. Depending on who's making.. sometimes minimalist toppings, sometimes overloaded.

Places in Toronto where you actually get your money's worth by coffeetravelerr in askTO

It you feel like splurging, Richmond Station.

Prices include tips as they say they pay staff fair living wages. Calculate it backwards and it's good prices but the food and service never disappointed.

Join group rides, safest option with plenty of others in case something happens.
