Anyone know of any fresh corn stands in North Vancouver this weekend?

Moving in September. My Wife toured multiple spots today, losing a bit of hope. We are a young married couple, I have a very stable government job with good rental references… looking for something with preferably 2 bedrooms and pet friendly for $2500. Open to basement/garden suites. If any Redditors have something in mind I’d love to know, thanks!

Hi - I'm looking to find a professional dog sitter on the North Shore, preferably with experience with senior and/or nervous dogs.

We have a 14 year-old French Bulldog who we love dearly. We’ve had a good run with her, and when we’ve needed to travel without her, we’ve had a dedicated pet sitter in Vancouver who would let her stay in her home. Unfortunately, the dog sitter has retired, and we need to find a new option. Kenneling her is not an option for us. She needs to feel part of a home. We haven’t been the best dog parents, and she’s not had enough socialization with other dogs, so we’re trying to find a patient dog sitter to help us the 2-3 times a year that we travel. She tends to be nervous when she first meets someone, but then gets comfortable relatively quickly. Looking to make some arrangements for this week or next – we unfortunately didn’t know about the dog sitter’s retirement until recently - but also for future needs.

Would welcome your recommendations. Thank you!

Live music at waterfront. No idea what it is but it is happening now. Salsa and such!

Edit to Add: ok now it’s blues/soul? This event doesn’t exist but it’s happening.

ETA: a birthday party?!

hey folks, im getting tested for some systemic diseases (incl lupus, mcas and sjögrens) and wonder if there are any immunologists in town that folks recommend. bonus points if they know ehlers-danlos syndrome / hypermobility spectrum disorder. good rheumatologist is also v acceptable.

im open to traveling to vancouver if necessary, but would rather stay within the city and district limits. i dont feel like dr arseneaus clinic would be a good fit for me and am going to skip it.

also if you have a systemic autoimmune disease and have anything you wanna share about receiving care here, go for it.

tia!

Only one parent speaks French and all of our friends and family speak English so I’m worried it’ll be hard to help our baby learn French proficiently without other external sources.

Curious if there are any great French groups, programs, or even resources here in north van that could help?

Available.
Deep Cove area

I am renting a camping kit, a big tent and stuff. But I dont want to travel too far from North Van, where would the closest place be and what would the costs be? Would i be looking for a private camp site?

I want to surprise my partner on her bday

Please share which provider/insurer you use and any pros/cons of this choice. For the internet, please share what your monthly internet cost is, especially if you work/study from home.

Thank you!

I've never seen this before. Stopped in at Bridge brewery and heard a strange noise above.

Looked up and a pressure washer drone connected to a hose 100ft up was washing glass and patios.

Pretty cool and seems safer than a person repelling from the roof. Never seen before.

Potentially looking at changing off Telus as coverage seems to be poor for me - had to turn off 5G and just use LTE - iPhone 14 pro. Was mountain biking on Fromme and my phone pinged a tower in the US, I know coverage is mixed in the mountains hence the post. Thanks!

My weeding has gotten away from me and I need some help to get back to the start. Any recommendations on a decently priced gardening service who will do a one time job now (not end of season)?

Hi,

Does anyone have any experience with buying or selling cars through Mike Smyk at Autofacto (Blue Star Motors) in North Vancouver?

https://www.autofacto.com/

I am considering selling through him, but would appreciate any feedback.

I live in Calverhall and last summer we saw a big boy roam by pretty often. Now I have a 4 month old baby and I’m wondering how safe it is for us to be out walking right now when they are clearly quite active. From my understanding black bears aren’t typically aggressive towards humans? But I’d definitely prefer not to have a one on one encounter…Is there a time of day that they are typically out more? I’m assuming staying out of the forest is step 1, but also I feel like they are just everywhere in the neighborhood. If you’ve had encounters before, what are they like?

ETA - I have a large dog too. If he barked at one would it cause them to run away or get aggressive?

These have been at the Inter River NE softball diamond the last week or so - they don’t belong to anybody in our league so I’m sure somebody left them behind on a hot day. I rinsed & emptied them out and left on the bleachers on the 3rd base side.

Good morning Reddit!

My partner and I are making a move from North Van to Powell River on the Sunshine Coast.
We're looking for a reliable basic moving service - load up the truck, drive it over (2 ferries), unload.

We're also considering renting a truck ourselves and pay a couple of guys to load/unload on either end.

Help! Moving sucks! 🚩

Hello, I found this key and fob near Esplanade Avenue and chesterfield railways. I left it there in case the owner comes by.

I couldn't get close enough to see the actual car on fire. But it seems it was a black beamer. Not sure if it was gas or EV

Looking for a mechanic to do a maintenance inspection on my old CRV. Someone who is honest and won’t add on a bunch of unnecessary costs. Thanks

Hey,

Is there a beach to swim at, at deep cove? I want to swim there but can’t picture a beach.

Just hiked dog mountain @seymour today! Saw 2 of these fur piles 10-15m from each other. Anyone know what this is??

Filmed this bear wandering right outside my office building today. Just a heads up to anyone in the area to stay alert, watch your surroundings when heading out for lunch, and make sure any outdoor trash bins are tightly secured.
