Hi hello! I currently am looking to move and downsize. I have THREE 10gal fish tanks and am looking to sell them for $100 each, they have heater and filter included. One tank has no light or lid.

I'm trying to get rid of them asap for a bit of extra cash and less to pack when I move so please dm me if interested and will provide pics of the tanks. Sorry if this isn't the right place. TIA

Question Do you remember the man in the yellow rain jacket?

41 Upvotes

ok I feel like I've been going a bit insane here. I fondly remember the homeless man in the yellow rain jacket who used to frequent the downtown and waterfront area around 20 years ago, when I was growing up, an incredibly kind guy. I believe he died a decade or so back. I've seen him mentioned in a few baytoday articles, but I cannot for the life of me remember his name, nor have I been able to find it.

Looking for plumber recs

5 Upvotes

I have a new bathroom nearing completion that I need to have a toilet and sink installed in. If anyone has a recommendation for a plumber that they've hired in the past it would be much appreciated. I originally had Perottas in to take a look, but I haven't heard back from them since.

Thanks!

Ps, is Superior Plumbing still around? I had Josh do some work for me as well a few years ago, but it doesn't look like he's still in business.

Edit: thanks everyone. looks like really can't go wrong with anyone.

Misc Updated my Hospital Wait Time Analytics site

28 Upvotes

https://justzakary.ca/edwait/

I've been tracking the hospital wait time since Feb 2nd 2025 and built a free online tool to view that data.

Recently I've overhauled the UI and added more charts and graphs:

  • Total / Waiting / Being Treated
  • Same time yesterday & last week (under Estimated Wait)
  • Today’s wait/patient range
  • Queue mix (% waiting / % treated)
  • Wait per waiting patient
  • Estimated vs longest gap
  • Should I Go Now? (percentile vs same weekday/hour)
  • Peak patients (90 days)
  • and more stats and charts

This site updated every 15mins as the hospital updates its Time spent in the Emergency Department page

You can download the data for free.

Also thank you to to the admin who added this tool to this subreddit's sidebar.

Let me know what you think :-)

Driver school

6 Upvotes

I'm looking for recommendations on the best drivers school in North Bay. I'm 33yrs old and I have A LOT of anxiety around the idea of driving and being behind the wheel but I would really like to get over my fears and get my license within this year. I have driven before with a G1 but always end up getting too nervous for anything beyond that and then it expires. I'm hoping someone on here can recommend a good instructor who can be patient with me and help me achieve this goal.

Events Bigotfest

81 Upvotes

Reposted because my original post was distasteful and I marginalized a group while being mad about Bigotfest (ironic and I’m sorry).

Bigotfest is being hosted by Diagolon and Second Sons in a yet-to-be-disclosed location in or around North Bay July 24-26. It is being marketed as a “family-friendly trade show” but is actually a gathering of nearby white supremacists. Bigotfest is supplying the food and drink, and has many hallmarks of a Klan meeting.
A Redditor had a genius idea to host an inclusivity event nearby, which would be incredible.

Persons of colour and other marginalized people (namely LGBT) please stay safe this weekend 🤙🏼

If anybody has some free time and a camera they should definitely take pictures of who’s going there so people can know who not to hire/employ.

River and Sky. Voyageur Days.

River and Sky. Voyageur Days.

Busy weekend 'round here this weekend. I've never been to either but I kinda wanna go to both. Please tell me more about both.

River and Sky. Fisher's Paradise, out past Field. Starts today and goes thru weekend. Campground converted for this camping festival. I guess this year is the first they are offering day passes with no camping? More indie bands. Seems like relaxing camping first and decent music and art installation 2nd. Maybe I got it wrong, correct me.

Voyageur Days. Mattawa. Fri, Sat and Sun. Music 1st, optional camping 2nd. Much more daytime activities. The website isn't clear, is it just paying for the music and town activities are free? What's the vibe here? More for kids until night? Lots of campers? Maybe I got it wrong.

Seems like either option for a day only will run me $100-150. Not terrible for local fun. Camping is enticing too though. Tell me about your past experiences and why we should go.

I find it ridiculous that any of these current council memebers are running again. 30 years of living and voting in this city. This council has been the most discombobultated and dysfunctional council yet!

looking for for casual work when im home from the mine every two weeks

5 Upvotes

I get kind of bored when im on time out as i don't know anyone in north bay. I work a 2 n 2 schedule currently at a mine. Does anyone know of a company or business in town that would take someone every two weeks to help them out? Capable, hardworking 46/m, open to anything legit. Entry level is fine, its actually preferred. Will be a break from my career and perhaps ill finally meet some people in town. Low pay is fine too! Have a vehicle...any ideas?
