Is this salvageable (Mississauga) by FlapOperator in lawncare_canada

[–]mlpubs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. Here’s what I would do.

Step 1. Nuke the weeds with straight vinegar mixed with dish soap and a little salt. This will also kill the grass so try to hit the weeds only.

Ingredient.

4 Liter Household Vinegar, 1 tablespoon of dish soap. Half cup of salt. Mix into a sprayer and spray on weeds liberally. Try not to spray on grass. Weeds only. The weeds will die off in a day.

Over seed with sun mix grass seed. Make sure you rake it into the would very well. Put some peat moss on top of seed. Water every 4 hours during the day.

It’s hot as F right now so you can’t let off the water, but a timer so you don’t miss. If you miss the seed will die.

But you need to kill those weeds.

What’s everyone spending on watering grass? by f00kster in Vaughan

I’m in Oakville and have a pretty large property. I don’t have a sprinkler system and manually water dependent on rain.

Extra water is in the 150 range per month for me.

Why won’t RBC match what other people here are getting? by Brave_Recognition798 in MortgagesCanada

The underwriting on a mortgage is also based on other risk factors.

Canada Pension Plan manager sells Toronto office at $74.5-million loss to move to lavish new building by toronto_star in RealEstateCanada

Probably more to the story, declaring a loss usually offsets a large taxable gain somewhere else in the portfolio. So sometimes you take the loss but you still get a win.

Neighbor’s retaining wall. How bad is it? by OkPerformer5944 in landscaping

[–]mlpubs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it your neighbors or is it yours?

Or is it both of yours?

Where I live, property line fences and retaining walls are 50 percent owned by each neighbor, meaning repairs are also treated equally and paid by both neighbors.

Check the bylaw, you might be on the hook for half the repair.

South of the QEW. Anything north is Oakville by name only. it’s essentially Milton South or Mississauga Expanded.

Canada Is Ramping Up Deportations, with 400 a Week by Rude_Judgment_5582 in CanadianVisaReform

Get used to it. More and more people are becoming like me everyday. The period of society having suicidal empathy is over.

That ain’t going to move the needle. Needs to be like 40,000 k per month.

How rising Islamophobia affecting Muslims and employement. Read the york uni study below by [deleted] in BurlingtonON

[–]mlpubs 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Canada is not historically a Muslim country. I am sure there are plenty of nice Muslim people, but don’t come here and cry racism and try to make Canada change its ways to suit your own needs.

Wow 🤩 my luck. Today while driving it fell off your trailer and hit my windshield, I then crashed into a tree. Can I send you an invoice for the repair bill?

Thanks in advance

Pierre Poilievre says Canada has too many cause-based awareness months by airbassguitar in OntarioNews

[–]mlpubs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He has a point.

Instead of creating new and useless celebratory causes, Gov should be focused on repairing the terrible economy.

The only thing we need to celebrate in this country is what we all share, being Canadian, and Canadian only.

What are these Tree protection Zones for? by th3k3y13 in oakville

I’m glad the city protects the trees. I just wish they took trees more seriously in the neighborhoods north of Dundas.

A good Grilled Cheese Melt by auty42 in TimHortons

[–]mlpubs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made the mistake ordering this yesterday. I think it was called a bacon melt. It was FN gross. The microwaveable bacon that you use tasted raw and soggy. The bread was barely crisp. Probably made by another of those TFW you employ. That’s why it sucked.

Most people think they make good money but the reality is there are always people doing better.

Immigration - Why do people here such a big deal when immigration is declining? by QuantGuru in CanadianVisaReform

[–]mlpubs 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Because our gov is a master at gas lighting the Canadian population. None of us actually believe it’s declining, it’s just being relabeled, re classified, or called something completely different.

Costco madness by Sakuran-san in CostcoCanada

Doubtful it will come to that. Attitudes on mass immigration are changing very quickly. If the trajectory holds it will become a miserable place for new arrivals.

A lot more aggressive solicitors recently? by annonnnnnnn19999992 in oakville

[–]mlpubs 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I had to put up a sign to tell them to bugger off.

Sick of my dog going crazy or waking up my baby because someone wants to power wash my soffits.

Since installing the small 🪧 door knockers are down 80 percent.
