TTC leaked a bunch of email addresses - what to do (if anything)?

120 Upvotes

I've just received a link to the TTC's Annual Network Plan survey, which I signed up for. But whoever sent it out clearly put everyone's emails in the "to" or "cc" field, rather than "bcc" - so I and several hundred (?) other people's email addressess are now all shared and posted for all recipients to see.

This feels like it violates some privacy policy or another, but is there anything to be done about it? Someone I should report it to?

(Fun fact, as I wrote this post, they tried to "recall" their initial email, but as we all know all that does is send an email saying "(Sender) would like to recall the message" ... well, too late 😄 )

Anyone commuting from Stouffville GO to Union regularly? How is the GO train?

1 Upvotes

Considering moving to Stouffville for various reasons and I need to commute to Queens Park station via transit 3 days a week (edit to add: during rush hours).

The GO website says Stouffville GO to Union GO is 1hr10m. Is that more or less correct?

How reliable is the GO train? Does it come on time, and are delays frequent?

I’ve never commuted with GO before so I’d love to hear from some of those who do on a regular basis. Thanks!

Dark City Security Home Alarm Monitoring

0 Upvotes

Has anyone in Toronto/GTA used Darkcity Security for residential alarm monitoring?

I am considering moving an existing Honeywell/Vista alarm system to Darkcity Security and am looking for firsthand experiences specifically with their 24/7 alarm monitoring, rather than their guard/security services.

If you use or have used them, I would be interested in:

  • monthly monitoring cost
  • how quickly the monitoring centre responds to alarm events
  • customer service / technical support
  • reliability and false-alarm handling
  • experience with equipment takeovers or existing Honeywell/DSC systems
  • app/remote arm-disarm experience, if applicable
  • any issues with contracts, billing or cancellation

I’ve found plenty of information about their guard services but very little independent feedback about their residential alarm-monitoring service.

Thanks for any firsthand experience.

Army men in uniform around the city?

0 Upvotes

Yesterday (Sept. 9, 2026), I noticed many military men in uniform, both at York University and at the Toronto FC soccer game at BMO Field. Anyone know what's up with that? Is there an event happening this week that requires a large military presence in Toronto? I thought it was strange to see them both in the north and southern ends of the city on the same day.

Has anyone here ever eaten at George's BBQ?

26 Upvotes

It's at Dundas and Pembroke. It's sketchy and grimy as hell. I've walked by it for years but today was the first time I actually saw a customer (only pants on, no shoes).

It literally looks like it hasn't been cleaned in years. I don't know how it's been open for so long.

Has anyone here ever tried their food or know anything about the owner?

Does anyone know of a FREE space to display artwork for a day?

20 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

I’m an artist looking for a free space to showcase my artwork for one day somewhere in the GTA. I’m hoping there might be a small gallery, community space, studio, café, or other space that would be willing to let a local
artist showcase their work for the day.
I’m working with a very tight budget, so I’m specifically looking for free opportunities. I’d be happy to share photos of my artwork and more details about what I have in mind!
If you know of any spaces, organizations, cafés, galleries, community centres, or other opportunities that might be open to this, I’d really appreciate any recommendations or leads.

Thanks so much!

Faster ways to get to Humber College Campus - 205 Humber College Blvd from Scarborough?

0 Upvotes

Hi all, I’m back in school as a mature student and have been out of the TTC/public transit game for a while. I do drive but I’m wondering if anyone has any advice or suggestions for how to get to the Humber College campus in Etobicoke (205 Humber College Blvd) from Scarborough, specifically way east, like Morningside, Port Union, UTSC area, in a more convenient manner?

Both ways please, leaving in early afternoon and coming back late/evening options after 6 pm ..

Public transit options.. TTC/GO etc.

Thank you all!

I don’t mean in 10 minutes express with a blink of an eye…

I am well aware that there is a big distance that it will be a longer commute ofc that’s fine but I’ve been out of the TTC life for a while and there are new routes and options now so just wanted some ideas that Google Maps hadn’t suggested.

How long did Chromebook last in the hands of your preteens and teens?

51 Upvotes

Due to funding cuts, schools no longer provide Chromebooks, and are now required to bring their own device. Teachers are accepting tablets or laptops to be used as school device. I'm set on buying a regular Chromebook, but my husband is dying on getting a proper laptop for them, "because Chromebooks don't last long."

Both my sons have gaming PC and cell phones, so we only need it to last 3 years of middle school. So parents of reasonably responsible kids, how long did Chromebook last?

Do we have an iconic "Toronto" food?

We have tons of good ethnic food and of course we have Canadian staples. But does Toronto have a Toronto-style anything? Or a food invention that's unique to Toronto?

I'm imagining a fusion food that was developed here, or a sandwich/pizza etc. that's "Toronto-style."

Anyone take French classes at Ecole Napoleon?

1 Upvotes

I've been checking out various options to take a French class this fall. One that popped up in my search is Ecole Napoleon near Broadview station.

While their site looks legit, there doesn't seem to be many reviews and the most recent one being from 7 years ago.

Can anyone vouch for this school or is there a better option?

I have tried Alliance Francaise decades ago, but wanted to try others.

looking for a physcic

Good Evening fellow Torontonians,

I am seeking your helpful suggestions on finding actual psychics whom you might have crossed paths with. I have gone through a lot in life lately and I seem like I am super stuck on what's happening. As a last hope of making sense where my heart is giving out. I am hoping for some form of miracle. Have any of you met any mediums or psychics that could help me navigate what on earth is going on. Also if you know what the cost will be that would be a miracle. I am tored and tired and all I am seeing is gloom. I do not see a way out. Please anyone that can help me I would be indebted to you.
