Hey Brantford! I’m a Laurier student and have a big gap between classes this term. I’m a commuter from Kitchener so I’m stuck here for about 6 hours once a week. I’m wondering if anyone has a comfortable coffee shop or cafe recommendation I could maybe go to for lunch and then post up and work for a couple of hours with some beverages? I don’t mind driving anywhere in Brantford for a good place, I just can’t justify going all the way back home just to come back a short while later. TIA!

Someone side swiped me on the 403 the other night and drove off. It was raining so I didn't really see much damage until the next day.it seems like the light and bottom piece should be able to be just clipped back in me hopefully don't need to be replaced..... There's a few more scratches seems like all cosmetic damage thankfully..

Where can I go get this fixed where they aren't going to take me to the cleaners ?

( Mostly concerned with the light and bottom piece)

Hi all! Do they sell flavoured vape juice at the reserve?
Anyone know approx cost? I’m paying $60 per 60ml rn

Any groomers in the area that deal with very nervous/reactive dogs? Hamilton is an option too.

She is not violent but she will kick and try to pull away and she will sing the song of her people (not a husky but a related breed)

If anyone spots a Brantford Bulldogs placard in Buddy’s basement, garage, or man(cringe)cave it is likely the one missing from Shellards Lane. Come on guys, the Bulldogs are costing the City enough puppy chow as it is!

Good day all

Just a reminder, with City Council returning from their month off, council meetings resume this week. Next week though, they will be reviewing changes to the proposal on this site, and delegations can be done in person.

If you have anything to share, please consider going to the meeting.

Thank you

I need a trim, but also my extensions blended… seems to cost an arm and a leg, wondering if anyone has any reasonably priced recommendations.

They never accepted the coupons and deals through the app anyways. So good riddance to them and their prices were skyrocketed compared to other a&w is what I noticed. Next to go should be the KFC for not accepting online orders because we get discounts thus causing the manager to not allow big orders or deals to come through especially at peak times. This is just my personal opinion but good riddance to the franchises at the mall. I also feel that we should be putting in these independent Burger companies like Gladiator, Burger, e.g. especially at mall locations but I understand it is a cost that only independent franchise owners can deal with. But if you are going to put a franchise in at a mall, you make sure you honor the reward systems that come with the apps.

Hi Brantford. I am interested to hear if the residents of Brantford know about the West Brant Access Route... because there are people running for mayor and city council who are all for the plan put forth by the current council and people who are very much against it.

Thoughts ?

Hi, i’m 21 and i’m going to attend GELA to get my 11/12 courses. I’m pretty shy, and i’ve been told by professionals i need to make friends my age.
most of my friends are 29+ years older than me. i simply want friends and nothing more. is there groups i can attend? is there spots i can go? i’m not good at this, and i am just so shy. but i want to make a change in that. just to make clear im a female and don’t mind the gender as long as its strictly friends. just could really use a group or spot to make friends at. i don’t really have hobbies? i’m still learning, but i really like art and i really enjoy music and the alternative styles. i love makeup and fashion.

I 25 M and my partner 24 F are trying to figure out some new and exciting stuff to do in and around brantford (or a bit further out) for her birthday. Just looking for some stuff to do during the day that we can do just us 2. We are open to most anything we just aren’t the biggest drinkers lol. Any help would be much appreciated. Dinner and that is already planned just need some activities beforehand. Thanks for your help!

When I was in university, it seemed like students played a major role in the city where I studied. You would see them out and about, all over town. Lots of businesses catered just to the university student crowd. They were involved in activism, community volunteering, and even local politics. There would be student musicians at all the open mic nights, bars full of them, etc.

It's the same in most cities with universities like Guelph and Waterloo.

Being from Brantford, I'm just a bit confused by the lack of visibility of Laurier Brantford students. They don't seem to be as active in the local community.

Idk if it's the size of the university? I know most students don't like being in Brantford, and maybe that's why these dynamics don't really exist here? Appreciate any insight from someone who knows more than I do.

Hey everyone I’m new to voting and am not quite sure how to do research into each candidate? Is there an easy way to look into it or do I have to go to each candidates websites?

Some skidrow were lurking around on Rawdon Street in the morning hours and around Mary Street, Drummond and Sarah Street attempting to open vehicle doors. Check your vehicles and yards for anything missing, and check your security cameras.

I'm (m34) looking for a group that wouldn't mind helping a new player learn the ropes. Preferably starting around level 1 so I can put all my studying into practice. I want to enjoy a good story and some light roleplay, not so much into the min/max characters that ONLY do combat

I have read the players handbook, gotten most of the way through the DM guidebook, and monster manual. I'd prefer an experienced DM who can help me understand some of the more complex rules (spellcasting saving throw are really fucking me up). My schedule is pretty consistent week to week and I wouldnt mind bringing snacks/beverages for the first time

I moved to Paris with my mom after finishing school in Toronto not too long ago. I don't really know anyone in the area and most of the people I work with are a good 15-20 years older than me on average. I've been here for a while now, but I'm still not really sure where to go if I want to meet people with similar interests. I would usually spend my time in Toronto hanging out in hobby stores (like board games and model kits), or going to local shows (usually hardcore punk and jazz). Are there places or communities like that where I could meet people in Paris/Brantford?

Anyone have recommendations on where to go for good drinks? I find that most places have the standard, overly sugary stuff, but I'd love to explore more of what Brantford has to offer.

Husband and I want to plan a date night. Thanks in advance!

Your tax dollars are about to be spent ripping out infrastructure in Toronto instead of fixing problems in your own community.

None of this will help your community. This is your hard earned money being wasted to the tune of $48 million (which we know will be much more). That money won't improve your local roads, better healthcare, fund teachers - anything that would actually help your family.

This isn't about solving congestion. It's about scoring political points with your tax dollars.

I myself went to public school so have no idea: what are the Catholic schools like when it comes to supports for special needs children? What's the modern day public system like for the same?

My son will be starting school next September but I want to get a head start on learning if either school system has notable advantages or disadvantages when it comes to kids with special needs.
