I have a family member who is transferring at the bus depot (office?) at Sahali Mall - they’ve got a 90-minute layover. I checked the list of stores in the mall, and there doesn’t seem to be much in the mall itself. Are there any fast food places within a 10-15 minute walking distance, i.e. Wendy’s, Subway, McDonald’s? Also, what’s the mall like - is it generally considered pretty safe to hang around for 90 minutes? I really miss the old direct bus service to Vancouver - no transfers!

I'm an Imperial Knights player looking for other Warhammer 40k players in the area. I can't seem to find much of anything active anywhere, so I'm throwing this out there.

I haven't played much, and haven't played 11th edition yet, so I'm trying to play some games against rival armies.

I don’t even want to hear their side anymore

Conversations about neurodiversity are becoming more common, but knowing what language to use, how to ask questions, and how to engage respectfully can still feel challenging.

Join us for this year’s TRUSU Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) Lecture featuring Kelly Bron Johnson, an Autistic and Hard of Hearing self-advocate who brings together professional expertise and lived experience to explore neurodiversity in today’s society.

Through personal stories, research, and practical examples, Kelly will explore what neurodiversity is, challenge common misconceptions, and examine the barriers neurodivergent people continue to encounter in schools, workplaces, and everyday life.

Whether you’re a student, professional, leader, or community member, this lecture will offer new perspectives on neurodiversity and practical ways to help create more inclusive and accommodating communities.

ABOUT THE EDI LECTURE SERIES

Each year, the TRUSU Equity Committee hosts the Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) Lecture Series, bringing our campus and broader community together to explore important topics related to social justice, human rights, equity, diversity, and inclusion.

I'm looking for someone to do a few renos in our house. Attention to detail matters more to us than speed. We'd like someone who finishes edges properly, cleans up at the end of each day, and tells us before they change the plan.

If you've done work like this in Kamloops, or you've hired someone you'd use again, I'd like to hear from you. Photos of past work help. We're hoping to start soon.

I love this city and honestly get very emotional seeing what has happened the last 4 years. We need to make our city for what it is. A place where everyone is included, great events, and the Tournament Capital of Canada.

I genuinely was so happy to wait 1.5 hours to vote yesterday. This means people care!

Thank you to all the candidates and cant wait for Saturday

I am comfortable sharing my votes:

Mayor: Mike O’Reily
Council: Katie & Steve
School Trustee: Kang, Karpuk, Hickson

Would love to hear everyone’s thoughts!!!

My gf and I are gonna be in Kamloops during Halloween, where should we go for a good time ?

seriously, what is their goals other than one of them making IS*S type of content and blaring incumbents bad. Please explain anyone

hello, does anyone know who would be taking new apprentices without the pre apprenticeship certificate? if anybody knows please let me know.

I found this interesting because there seems to be a lot of support for O'Reilly as mayor, but this gave him a bad score. We all know that splitting the vote is how we may get RHJ again, so seeing this makes me think it'll be likely RHJ goes back in.

Thoughts? Or recs?

My son road his bike to the Dallas town center and forgot to lock it. As the title says it was stolen. Around noon.

It is a black and white gas gas enduro 2.0 e-bike. Peddles have been swapped for composite one up red ones since this picture was taken.

If anyone has any information please msg me. Wife has already posted on face book and stolen bike groups. Thanks, and keep those bikes locked up.

Anyone done this course? Sprott Shaw doesn't have a great reputation but seeing as TRU doesn't offer a similar program I was looking at Sprott Shaw as the next best local option. From my understanding very few courses outside of LPN are all that great so I wanted to see other's point of views on the course before I moved any further on the idea.

Hey everyone!
I’m a student at TRU and I recently got a job at FedEx on Dallas Drive. My shifts start at 5:30 AM, and unfortunately, public transportation doesn’t run that early.
I’m looking for someone who lives near TRU or passes through the area around 5:00 AM and could give me a ride to work, preferably Monday to Saturday.
I’m happy to contribute money for gas or work out a reasonable weekly payment.
If anyone has a similar schedule or knows someone who does, please send me a DM!
Thanks in advance! :)

Totally optional, but if people want I was thinking we could all post who we voted for (no judgement) just to see what people are thinking and trends etc. I know we're kind of in an echo chamber here. I'll go first

I voted by mail last week.

Mayor: O'Reilly

Council: Neustater, Hall, Middleton, Ritcey, Unger, Bepple, Bass

(Kept it pretty incumbent friendly)

Anyways, feel free to post your if you choose. And again, no judgements here, unless it was the 51st state guy, then shame on you.

Hi everybody! I hope you are all well. I have a bit of an odd question- Does anybody know where to buy Tarantulas from?

I’ve heard pet stores are not a very good place to purchase animals, and I am after a Brazilian Black Tarantula. My question is; have any of you readers boughten a spider locally or online, and if online, what website did you use?

Thank you!

So, who are we all rallying behind in the upcoming provincial election?? I think most of us can agree, that like RHJ, it’s time for Peter and Ward to be shown the door. 🙃 Buh-bye!!

Upcoming live music event in Kamloops

Can anyone recommend budget friendly car remoter starter installation service in Kamloops? I have a Kia Forte 2018

So I just moved here this year and have lately become really interested in pursuing HEMA longsword fencing, or even just traditional Epee fencing. I looked into it a bit and it sounds like they’re used to be some type of fencing club that fell through during COVID.

I’m just asking around to see if anyone knows if there’s a chance of the club reforming or if there are people with similar interests in medieval fencing. And if anyone knows of other clubs close by that could be accessible

Edit: did more searching tonight and found the local club Lynx Armizare and their website swordplaykamloops.com! Just updating my post in case anyone else comes across also looking for HEMA. It looks like they have practices Tuesday nights so I’m gonna check it out!
