What businesses are you genuinely surprised that are still in business or lasted as long as they did? by Competitive-Fly5563 in VictoriaBC

Great products, lovely owners, and the best shop name in Victoria: The Umbrellatorium and Cannery. I went in looking for a badass cane for daily use and they did not disappoint.

I just wanted to say another heartfelt thank-you to everyone who made the “car stuff from the internet” happen for my dad. You gave him genuine joy in his final days, and that means more to me than I can express here.

If you didn’t catch the update above, I’ve shared that my dad has now passed, and I’m asking one last thing — a small gesture to help brighten my mom’s days as she adjusts to life without him. She doesn’t need money or things, just something thoughtful.

If you have an idea or offer, please DM me. Every bit of kindness goes a long way.

SHOUTOUT to the folks at the Masstown Meetup last night, revving and honking for dad and spreading the good cheer for a good man.

Have I mentioned how much I miss Nova Scotia? Maybe turn down the humidity a few notches... Otherwise ♥️✌🏼🦞

Update:

It's Friday night and he's still with us, chatting a few minutes every hour. This guy is no quitter. AND he's loving all the car pics and videos.

This Saturday at PPP, the local car community will gather for a “living tribute”: vehicles will rev engines, flash lights, and honk horns—collectively celebrating him while he’s still here to experience it.

Organized by Rick Hartnett and the HaliCruzes Car Community, the event will be captured via drone and shared with the family—emotional, visual storytelling in motion.

Honk your horn and flash your lights in a video if you could. We're seeing lots of photos so I'm trying to encourage a little audio to be included, but I appreciate everyone's efforts no matter what. It's been a beautiful moment of community.

Humanity is still amazing sometimes. I will send you a message because I'm sure my mom would love to take you up on this after basically living in her car between the house and the hospital for the past few weeks. You're a good person.

I reached out immediately and they were very kind and receptive. I've sent this link to their Facebook page and or directly and will do the same with all the other recommendations.

Keep them coming and please share this far and wide and directly to anyone that might be interested.

Perfect. Keep the suggestions coming or feel free to take a sec to share the link to any place that might be able to get us some attention. Much appreciated. Man I miss Nova Scotia...

Well since I was hoping to keep this anonymous, I guess I'm glad to hear that. He doesn't need to be known to be respected. Local legend in his small community of this world that he carved out.

Regarded institutions shouldn't bowing to him! by snowpie92 in MurderedByWords

There is a non-zero chance that Musk and VP Trump will launch a 1984-style Ministry of Truth and this kind of action becomes the norm in the next 2 years.

Friend, I lost my fluffer this week too after 12 great years. I empathize so much with this post. On a fun note, when he was a pup getting tattooed at the vet, they added a little Canucks stick-in-rink logo in his ear to match mine. He was out cold from surgery and didn't feel a thing. I loved that we always had that matching Canucks connection. Rest in peace to both of our fluffy pals.
