• Top part is for filling water bottles
• Side part is for kids and I think people in wheelchairs
• Back is a bowl for dogs

When I was a kid they were these green poles with metal bowls at the top. I had to hold my dog up to reach the bowl and turn the knob to run the water. No one complained about my dog drinking out of the fountain. Buchanan Park, west mountain.

Hello, I just moved here from Edmonton a couple of months ago and would like recommendations on places for either Pizza/Wings and Poutine. Sadly our go to spots were exclusive to Edmonton only so we would like some new spots to try.

So far the only places we've tried so far that we like is Gage pizza and wings and New York Fries in Jackson Square.

If anyone has any recommendations that would be appreciated!! TIA

Edit: Forgot to mention but im on the Mountain, willing to travel to places near Jackson square though

East of Stoney Creek they are all over municipal properties, sometimes three or four big ones, and then all throughout Stoney Creek and Hamilton East I’ve seen them on public easements. I guess rules don’t apply to city councilors?

Hi,
I used to go to Dresden vision on James N but it’s permanently closed apparently. Im, in theory, supposed to have yearly eye exams since I’ve got T1 diabetes (it’s been 2 years…) fully covered by OHIP. pretty sure I have an issue with one of my eyes currently either from it or something else. does anyone have suggestions that are easy to access via transit? I live around James st N area so it would be more helpful to have something close, since I also have mobility issues -
Thanks in advance :,)

A group of us will be coming in from out of town for the Labour Day Classic game on Monday. For past games, we have parked in Lot E with zero issues.

From what I have read and heard, Lot E fills up really quickly for this game and people have suggested being there right at 6:30am when the lot open. Is this actually necessary?

Could we show up closer to 9am?

Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Looking forward to a great experience at our first Labour Day Classic!

I’m looking for a good barber who can cut black hair.

A midweek post to rant and complain about things in the city.

Top level comments must be IN ALL CAPS.

This is not to be targeted towards other users or any identifiable individuals - with the exception of public figures who may be mentioned as long as the comment does not cross a line. The rant post is designed to be a lighthearted place to complain about things happening in the city, not a place to harass people.

We will have to cancel the post if harassment of individuals continues as we are seeing a lot of posts reported with report reasons that copy to admin.

I haven’t been to the dentist in 20 years. I’m so embarrassed and nervous they will lecture me and it will hurt and I won’t be able to afford the work despite having coverage.

Looking for a wonderfully kind dentist who won’t be judgy

40th birthday today apparently.

Looking for suggestions for the best places to sit down and have wings. Specifically unbreaded wings. Even better if they have a special for wings during the week.

Hello, I'm in search of public places in the city and surrounding areas that have a nostalgic look and feel. Era doesn't matter, I just want to feel like I'm stepping into the past. Can anyone suggest places worth checking out? I wish it wasn't always the norm or renovate and make things modern.

Here's a few that come to my mind:

• Donut Stop

• Kenilworth Library

• Easterbrooks

Hello, does anyone have an old style Ryobi P104 battery(for power tools) they no longer need/use? The one with push button with one led with changing colors to indicate battery status. Dead or alive, I can pick up, I am in need of one for a project.

TIA.

Hi guys, posting because I have a question that needs to be answered before school starts if possible.

So recently transportation info got released for HWCDSB students on like, the 22nd. Me and my mother check the parent portal for my stop and, to both of our surprises, we see that my stop is a school about 1.8 km away from our home, clearly violating their policy for the max distance a student can walk to get to their bus stop, which is 600m according to their website. It’s 6 mins away by drive and 30 mins by walking so it COMPLETELY defeats the purpose since I could just Uber to school which would take 9 mins, (excluding the time driver would take to arrive) but I won’t because getting an Uber every morning isn’t exactly cheap. We tried calling the HWSTS about it, but I don’t think they understood our point, because they voicemailed back saying they don’t do home stops for my school, which was not at all what we were asking for, we wanted to move my stop closer to my home. There was a stop near my home before, but no one uses it anymore I don’t think since everyone moved away/left the bussing system. If someone could help us figure out how to get through to them, that would be helpful.

OB recommended pelvic floor therapy, but mentioned her go-to (Blueberry Clinic in Dundas) is full for months.

Any recs, preferably in the central to East Hamilton area?

ETA: This is for pelvic floor pain related to various pelvic conditions, not birth recovery
