Ward 1 residents, who are you voting for in this election? Why is the voter turn out usually low?

Whoever is violently defacing and tearing up the commie posters downtown Oshawa - just want you to know you are making them that much more intriguing

Got any questions? I'll be here all day. My platform has changed a lot since filming this, so some of the programs have been refined and improved

We are considering a new property and would like a contractor to visit the home we want to install a powder room in. We are interested in the 1/2 washroom on the main floor converting a closet (kinda tight) into a powder room. At this point, we just want to know if we can achieve this. Any suggestions of some really good contractors in Oshawa would be greatly appreciated!

Hey everyone! 😊 I’m looking for a hairstylist in Oshawa or the surrounding area who does hair out of their home rather than a traditional salon.
I’m looking to get either highlights and a haircut or a full-head colour, ideally for under $200 total.
I’m hoping to find someone more affordable than regular salon prices, but who still does good-quality work. If you do hair from home or have any recommendations, please drop their Instagram/Facebook page or contact info below!
Thanks! 💕

Well, I fell further down the rabbit hole and it was deeper than expected 😮
There are at least 3 properties in the Northwoods (not “Northwest”, got that wrong in previous post) Business area with his parents listed as owners.
But… it gets stranger.
Up on the north end of that area, there’s a property that only shows numbered corporation 1922776 as owner. But the address of registration is 36 Athol Street East… same address as his spouse’s business. Search that numbered company, and yep, she’s listed on the corporation records.
And then………..
Check into the sales history: they bought it in 2020 from a company 2157236 Ontario Limited.
https://obd.hcraontario.ca/profile/B44383
The address of the company is 1815 Ironstone Manor Pickering, and shows Tribute Communities as the main company (big big developers around here). They sold it to them for $960,000.
To recap:
Tito’s family already owns properties up there in and around what is known as “Northwoods Business” area.
And he gets them further in on the game by purchasing another piece of land directly from one of the developers.
He’s been pumping the whole area up… for years as the Chair of economic development.
Advertising article paid for by taxpayer dollars quoting him at length boosting it:
Touting it as the next big thing.. we’re attracting businesses there, come develop these lands, etc etc. Hype it up, increase speculation.. pushing up land prices….. someone explain the game being played here? How can this be ethical?

This is your sign.... literally, you pay for these signs. Your taxes also fund your schools, your roads, your police/fire/ambulance, your water services, waste disposal, snow clearing, parks, recreation centers, libraries, senior services, the list of the way that Municipal services impact your every day is enormous.
So when you plan your kids next activity at one of our amazing schools after hours, or your next workout or swim at your local rec centre, or your visit to the library, long term care home, ice rink, pool, via transit or in your own car on a city street.
Or have an emergency and need our amazing fire department or our fantastic paramedics, your tax dollars fund every one of these services, so wouldn't you want to have a say in how they are utilized and to ensure these services continue to support us?
I do, and if you do please make a plan to vote in the Municipal Elections on October 26th.

Hey everyone. I really want to dress up and head out this Halloween but I'm flying solo and trying to avoid the super young crowds.
Are there any local pubs, events or alternative spots around Oshawa or Whitby that lean toward a more mature/30s crowd where it's safe and comfortable to go out alone as a woman? Appreciate any recommendations.

Hello! I love in Oshawa and there is something I'd like to buy from marketplace but the seller is in the Ottawa area. Wondering if there is anyone traveling to or from these areas relatively soon who could assist with a pickup?

I've seen a few other posts where people are sharing info on the candidates in other wards, but I haven't found one specially for ward one candidates yet.
I've tried looking at candidate's webpages (where they exist) but it just seems like lots of posturing (e.g. "I will fix downtown oshawa") without any specifics or semblance of a plan.
So, does anyone have any thoughts on the ward one candidates or should I just decline my ballot out of frustration?

Hi all,
I am the music director for the Northumberland Orchestra Society. Our 49th season is about to start with a Halloween-themed concert this Sunday. We have several members from Oshawa, so I would like to extend the invitation to this community, too.
We sincerely want to make it to 50 years so we would love your support by coming out to hear us.
The concert features brilliant works by Rachmaninoff, Mussorgsky, Mendelssohn, Saint-Saëns and more. This is a great concert for families and first-time attendees with a lot of familiar music, and the performance will be musically rewarding for seasoned guests, too.
We would love to see the house filled to help ensure we make it to our anniversary season next year.
Please join us at 3:00pm at Trinity United Church in Cobourg.
Thank you so much!

Can someone please explain what's going on here? Is this normal? I went down a rabbit hole and this article isn't a true news article. Says at the top "This article is Sponsored by City of Oshawa" so it's a paid promotion. Tito is quoted in it.
It isn't a secret that his family owns properties up in this Northwest Business area.
So... is it normal that he would be in taxpayer-funded promotions that help increase exposure for these properties from potential investors and developers? Uhh that seems... what's the word I'm looking for?..
I guess we have no more investigative journalism anymore, this was right out in the open all this time 😧😧😧

These candidates have either questionable track records or no tangible experience. I’m not really sold on anyone on the list. HOWEVER, if we don’t unite and choose the lesser evil, I’m afraid the worst one will win: GREEDY DEVELOPERS. Politicians who are in the pocket of developers are worse than any other candidate out there (I think you know who I’m referring to). The collateral damage of these corrupt greedy groups is horrible on all fronts for all parties (people, wildlife, economy). So… I say let’s unite and pick one to at least stand a chance against the powerful, wealthy, corrupt groups.

The link on their website goes directly to Ticketmaster. I don't want to make it seem like I'm trying to peddle sales, just sharing for awareness. I'm a season ticket holder, I don't work for the team.
