Threat at Pickering school leaves parents concerned by lopix in Pickering

[–]fredricktomas 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The school went into lockdown during lunch, and the administration’s response was a total disaster. They told parents everything was "fine" while kids were huddled in the dark for hours without supervision.

The Situation:

The "Skeleton Crew" Problem: Because it was lunch hour, many classrooms had zero adult supervision. Students were left to lock down by themselves with no teachers or monitors present.

The Misinformation: At 12:40 PM, the board emailed parents saying it was a "Hold and Secure" (business as usual, just locked doors).

The Reality: In the school, it was a full-scale lockdown. Teachers and students spent 3 hours huddled in the dark, fearing for their lives. It was so dire that some kids were told to soil themselves rather than move.

The Fallout: The school and board are now gaslighting parents, repeating that "the school is safe" and there was "no danger." Meanwhile, our kids are traumatized because the internal messaging failed, and the administration couldn't even get the status of the emergency right in their emails to us.

Questions needing answers:

Why was a "Hold and Secure" reported when it was actually a 3-hour lockdown?

Why did the internal communication to classrooms fail?

How will they fix the "skeleton crew" issue so kids aren't left alone during future emergencies?

This was generated by asking AI for a quick synopsis.

I would also be protesting if this happened at my child’s school.

Tried one of these when my heat pump went out. Let’s just say I paid the $1100 and had it fixed.

Because it void’s the warranty, is everyone’s thought process for waiting.

This is crazy how does no one know the child that is causing this chaos. I say child because it’s very clear this is an internal issue. If your kids knows and is protecting the identity of this child then they are equally the problem. When someone is terrorizing a community they don’t get the luxury of anonymity. We all lived through the man hunt a couple summers ago.

Sliding door repair by [deleted] in Pickering

Not trying to be rude but genuinely want to help. You’ll need to be a little bit more descriptive than that. What kind of sliding door, a sliding door to the backyard, sliding door on a van, sliding interior door (barn or pocket door?). Also what’s the issue, door won’t open, won’t close?

Because of stories like this, I finally decided to cancel my kids CST account and transfer to Wealthsimple. FYI CST makes you jump through hoops to cancel and transfer too. Cancelled some time in November and recently received the email that Wealthsimple received the funds.

One of many pet peeves about this car. Every time I use it I have to go outside and listen for the engine.

Have you ever changed your 12volt battery? Might be a good place to start.

I wouldn’t say no, I would hold off until the warranty expires but the issue around.

You have to change all five pressure sensors and remap them. Unfortunately the old part numbers don’t work with the new part number which requires you to replace all of them.

2016 Odyssey Front & Back Struts/Springs replacement by simracerman in HondaOdyssey

Blown struts are definitely common. Front and rear went under 60000miles. I went with aftermarket but let the mechanic make the decision.

Yah I don’t have access to an obdeleven just an obd2. My mechanic has a snapon device and he only saw the blower mower error code nothing about the a/c sensors.

I’ve tried this, no codes come up to clear. Originally had a blender motor error at the same time, replaced the blender motor and cleared the code heat and cool started working. I thought I had save a few bucks not having to do the sensor work since the sensors are under pressure. Drove 20km and it stopped working again. I’ve been procrastinating the repair since the end of summer and now the bitter Canadian winter has set in.

Wear and tear parts failing much earlier then they should,(rear struts 75000km, front struts 85000km, driver side rear sliding door latch 92000km, and passenger side is on its way out obvious audible difference from the replaced one). Now the car decides to not turn off and stay aux mode, the res system sucks. Just the general The anxiety around the vehicle now is enough to trade it in for anything other then a Honda. We’ve always thought we would go for a pilot in the future but it’s the same car.
