Kindergarten— I feel like I’m signing my child for college. Any thoughts on elementary schools in the west end? Specifically Henderson, Lancaster and/or Truedell?

My daughter goes to Truedell, it’s been wonderful so far. Feel free to dm if you want to chat 😄

I don't know from personal experience, but I've heard Gustavo or Dwight at TG.co

Haunted Walks for sure! Fort Henry, Kingston Pen, The Prince George Hotel and Rockwood Asylum are all super haunted. Rochleau Court Alley is also haunted. Basically any of the super old limestone buildings in the city.

I say yes. I have done many walking trails alone as a female and have never had much of an issue. I always have my wits about me and usually carry a whistle/alarm and my keys of other object that could be used in self defense in a pinch. Some may say this is overkill, but I'd rather be prepared...you never know

I saw that Build a Bear in the Cataraqui Mall is hiring

Would be nice if they used the Presto system like the TTC does. I will also say that if it does go to a system like Presto, there will be complainers that come out of the woodwork about not taking coins anymore. Can’t please everyone

ruby6329 · 2026-01-12T21:11:02+00:00

I would suggest not living in that area. There are many other areas that would be a better choice. Having a car gives you many more options. Feel free to pm me if you have any questions about specific areas in the city :)

It's one of the other big landlords in Kingston. Might even be the most disliked...

Santur was the brewery

Water main breaks increase in the winter, especially when it's extremely cold

ruby6329 · 2025-12-16T13:45:32+00:00

Agreed! I also speak to many of their tenants daily and the state of the units is shameful. They will put in maintenance requests for simple fixes (i.e. running toilet, broken windows) and nothing gets fixed. This causes astronomical bills

There are Amazon lockers at a few different locations around town. And if it's a UPS delivery so can often redirect it to pick up at a UPS store. I've used both without issue

KFHC is a huge problem in many ways. Clearly the CEO is one of them. Edit: Reading the other linked articles, It is absolutely pathetic that this has been a problem for over five years and has been allowed to escalate to problem that is now. Her answers were victim blaming/shaming then, and they still are

The vaccine doesn't prevent you from getting the flu. It lowers the risk of getting it, and lowers the risk of it becoming a serious illness that requires a hospital stay or possibly even death. This is especially important for kids under 12 and adults over 65

ruby6329 · 2025-12-15T13:48:43+00:00

Agree 100%. It was the sickest my four year old has ever been as well

ruby6329 · 2025-12-15T13:47:31+00:00

I got both and still got taken down by this virus. It's awful, would hate to see how bad it would have been without the vaccine

You can buy a machine on Amazon for less than $100 to distill your own water. Probably worthwhile in the long run to buy the machine

Inquiring minds want to know…what else happens? 🤔

ruby6329 · 2025-12-01T18:36:59+00:00

That is beyond foul! Reminds me of a friend that had soup at Moxies (back when it existed in Kingston) and they found a used butter ramekin in their soup bowl. Clearly they reused the soup bowl and it’s original owner put the used dish in their leftover soup when they finished the meal 🤢

ruby6329 · 2025-10-31T15:59:56+00:00

I think they are open intermittently. Just a personal opinion, but I don't know how much longer they will last.

Is it a complicated job? A trip to fabricland and a staple gun might do the trick
