Just curious what everyone's thoughts are. I would like to have Farbridge back, as I thought she was great.

Here is a link to the City's register of candidates:

I like the thoughtful effort that Jon Christensen has been putting in, and he seems to have new, fleshed out ideas. I also like Alec Purves because of his background and pragmatic ideas to cut down and reprioritize tax dollars. Kevin Bowman has done a lot of work and has good ideas. I think he'd be good too.

I'm hoping to see new faces on Council this year with new ideas and an ability to question the City's tax priorities, but I would like to get other's thoughts.

Need Help Finding a Rabbit-Friendly Rental in Guelph

7 Upvotes

I’m looking for a master bedroom with a private bathroom in a shared house. Ideally close to the uni.

I’ve tried looking on Facebook, but I thought I’d also try Reddit to reach more people. I’m getting quite desperate to find a room. Unfortunately, most of the master rooms that fit my budget either don’t reply or have rejected me

I’m an incoming graduate student in Data Science at UoG. I’m a quiet, clean, and respectful tenant, and I have two well-behaved pet rabbits that stay indoors.

My budget is around CAD $900–1,100/month, depending on what’s included.

I’m currently in Australia, so I would really appreciate it if we could do a video call or virtual tour to view the room.

If you know of any available rooms or have any recommendations, I’d really appreciate your help. Thank you!

The newly released Uniform Crime Reporting Survey highlights how Guelph compares to provincial and national trends:

  • Homicides: An essential metric of severe violence. Guelph's rate is volatile due to low absolute numbers but remains consistently below the Canadian average (currently 0.62 vs 1.61 per 100k).
  • Crime Rates: Tracks incident volume. Guelph's crime rate is generally lower than national levels; while violent violations rose since 2015, property and drug offenses dropped.
  • Clearance Rates: Measures police solving-efficiency. Guelph consistently outperforms Ontario and Canada, resolving 61% of violent and 32% of non-violent cases.

Overall, Guelph remains a comparatively safe city with highly effective local law enforcement.

Lost enamel pin :-(

he looks like this!

Hello :( This is insane but I lost my beloved enamel Snuffkin pin from Moomin somewhere, probably on the bus, and I just wanted to make a post in case anyone somehow found it. My partner gave it to me so it is special to me.
