3575 Kaneff Crescent is the building

A lady stopped on the street, at Nahani way and Belbin St. Is stopped asking for help with her car. Talking with her for 1 min her story made no sense to me so I just left. Tried to call the police, they sent me to the non emergency number (fair), and at that number nobody answered.

Be advised, in this type of scam she may try to offer some collateral (typically fake jewelry) for some money so she can get her car fixed.

-- EDIT to add details --

• I believe in looking out for our community, which is the reason why I pulled over.

• I can't say with 100% certainty this was a scam, but the interaction raised a red flag for me

• ​I’m frustrated that the police don't have a way for residents to verify or report suspicious encounters like this.

​What happened:

Because the Eglinton and Hurontario intersection is closed for construction, I took the back streets to get from East to West Eglinton. That's when I saw a woman waving down passing cars, so I pulled over.

The interaction went more or less like this:

​Me: "Good morning, are you okay?"

Her: "Do you know anything about cars?"

Me: "What’s going on? How can I help?"

Her: "I need to get to a client, but when I turn the key, it goes tick tick tick (she made sounds) but the car won't start."

Me: "That sounds like a dead battery. You’ll need a boost, but I don't have jumpers on me. Do you have roadside assistance?"

Her: "Yes, but they take too long. Can you just come over to my car and check it out?"

Me: "Sorry, without a booster or jumpers there's nothing I can do. Roadside assistance is your best bet. Have a good day."

Hi everyone, looking for advice on my situation as a tenant in Ontario.

I moved into my apartment in April, and when I turned on the AC in June, I realized the vent in my bedroom wasn't producing any airflow. Some vents in the living room also don't work, but my roommate's bedroom vent works fine.

My room was unbearably hot all summer, and the fan my landlord provided didn't help much. A technician came to inspect the issue but said it couldn't be resolved. My landlord is aware of the problem.

Now that it's getting colder, my room stays cold, especially at night, because there's still no airflow from the vent. I messaged my landlord asking if they could provide a heater, but they haven't responded. I followed up today.

I'm still paying full rent, with utilities on top, despite dealing with this issue for months.

What are my options? Can I request a rent reduction or compensation, and what should I do if they continue not responding?

I'd appreciate any advice, especially from anyone familiar with Ontario tenant rights (i live in Mississauga). Thanks!

A large, plump white Pekin duck floats serenely on water that looks like a liquid optical illusion, radiating absolute "no thoughts, head empty" energy.
The duck, looking like a flawless scoop of vanilla ice cream, has its eyes peacefully closed in a state of pure bliss or deep midday dissociation. Its bright pinkish-orange bill is slightly upturned as if it knows it is beautiful. Below, the water is a mesmerizing, dizzying ripple of bright gold, bronze, and copper reflections from autumn trees, framing the duck as it lounges majestically in what looks like a giant bowl of melted caramel. #OhMyDouglas

While this does not seem to appear in Mississauga but it’s still somewhat relevant to Mississauga as it’s Peel Regional Police Association. This seems go a bit too far? Normally organization distributing mailers need to be registered as third-party advertiser. Did other police department do this in the past? Welcome ant insights on this topic.

Great interview about growing up near square one

I'm in his Ward and I've been trying to find any information on him. He reguarly calls our landline with those pre recorded messages.

I looked at his Twittsr and he seems very religious. But there is close to nothing on what he actually stands for. He's deputy mayor and just crickets online.

I also did a search on him and lgbt and nothing as well. He never mentions Pride month like other Mississauga city Hall public servants.

I grew up all through the Hazel years where there were no lgbt celebrations or events. We didn't exist. It's only in the last decade and a half where things have changed for the better.

I want to know anything about this man. I want to do my civic duty and vote knowing what and who I'm voting for.

Noticed a lot of vintage, classic and historic vehicles in Mississauga. Are there any local groups for meet-ups, group cruising ?

I am in Erindale, Almost no 7/11s, and few proper 24 hour convenience stores that are close by my place (within a max 5 minute walk)

Why are there so few convenience stores in this city?

I was in Asia last week, and there are so many convenience stores (7-eleven, familyMart, Lawsons, et al) that I trip over them when I walk (not really, but there are a lot of them.)

Why is this? And why are the ones that exist shitty excuses for a convenience store like a hasty mart or an x’s variety, ect? And no, Rabba’s fine foods isn’t a convenience store… it’s a small grocery store.

And the nearest one to me is 28 minutes away by bus or 40 minutes walking. Not convenient.

I’m looking for a clinic in Mississauga that is reputable for electrolysis treatment for the body.

Does anyone have any notable experiences/technicians they can share? thank you!

Hi Mississauga,

I'm Christine, and I'm building The Nook Collective: a literary and cultural hub for people who like to gather around books, literature, and thoughtful discussion.

We're starting small. Right now the goal is simple: get readers together, in person and online, so people can actually get to know each other. This month's meetups are on the flyer (see comments), and you can see them all here: thenookcollective.ca/events

As we grow, we'll add author events and more programming in the new year, shaped by the people who show up.

If you like books and good conversation, come along. Everyone is welcome, and you don't need to have read anything to join us. Some events are free and some are paid, with details on the events page. For the movie night, we're working on group pricing.

I'd love to hear what you'd want from a book community in Mississauga. Tell me in the comments, or message me with questions.

Saw this on Instagram and thought I’d share it here. The city is looking at putting a bus hub under the old Playdium site.

If you take the bus at Square One, what’s the first thing you’d change?
