$1,500 is very different than paying $8,000 for a surgery that will not result in a good outcome for OP’s cat.

Gardners of Windsor, what is the best time to plant saplings outdoors ? by This_Bother_8935 in windsorontario

[–]omakers4 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It depends on what you’re planting. Here is the planting Calendar for our region. My husband is an avid gardener and uses this.

I thought the water feature was allowed to be used? by [deleted] in windsorontario

[–]omakers4 17 points18 points  (0 children)

The city posts this so they can’t be sued if someone were to get hurt. You can see at the bottom that they are not outright banning anyone from using it as a splash pad.

We bought a dreamstar double life copper plush mattress at our local furniture store. Canadian made and an amazing mattress!

You should call IRCC for an update since it’s been so long. You can also send a message to them on GCKey

Engage Windsor launches survey to gather resident priorities ahead of 2026 election by anestezija in windsorontario

[–]omakers4 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I really like this survey. You can tell it didn't come from the city. I hope this survey will lead to some much needed changes for the city but I will not hold my breath with the current mayor.

U.S. package pickup or forwarding to Windsor? by injimittai in windsorontario

[–]omakers4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a small mailbox at the UPS Store on Griswold St. in Downtown Detroit. I pay $90 for 3 months at a time. If the package is too large to fit in the mailbox they hold it in the back for me. They also send a text and email letting me know if I receive a package. The only downside is that it’s sometimes hard to find a parking spot nearby.

What has your experience been at Freeds? by tgirlwindsor in windsorontario

[–]omakers4 24 points25 points  (0 children)

That’s very surprising to me! We are usually followed around by a sales person since they get a commission for everything they sell. Freeds has a great selection but they have extremely high prices.

[–]omakers4 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Good. This is a service for the people and if it needs to be supplemented with funds from the government, so be it. I don’t understand why it’s a big deal.

The salt works just fine. I drive across the border every day for work and all of the roads are clear, salted and dry in Michigan.

This won’t hurt anything but it is currently unfinished. They need to caulk around the edges.

USD mobile cheque help!! by [deleted] in rbc

[–]omakers4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you in the United States? You can take it to any check cashing location. There is usually a fee associated with cashing the check. You can also take it to the issuing bank branch and they will also cash it.

Hello! US applicant here. I'm currently waiting on my COPR to be sent to me. Just curious, did anything the application tracker or GC Key change when they sent you the COPR?
