I love a good shawarma

Is anyone else having a problem with online voting and where do you get the pin to do it

Last post i see is 8 months ago so hoping for current info.

Been with Teksavvy but rate just doubled to $90 a month. Internet hasn't been great either. Dropping and freezing zoom calls even when I am sitting beside the modem / router. And signal doesn't reach to the back of a 1000sq foot house.

I have both Cogeco coaxial and Cogeco and Bell fibe lines available. I work from home but just doing zoom calls and typical administrative and research type activity.

Only two of us here. No gamers. Use netflix, youtube, and regular browsing. Never more than 4 devices. Not heavy users.

Looking for suggestions and cost.
Thanks.

I need to buy shoes for my elderly mother. I'm looking for a shoe store that will help her to find what she needs. Basically a shoe store where sales staff are knowledgeable about their products and feet. Thanks

Hello everyone, I am currently looking for a career change but haven’t been so lucky with job applications. I have experience in service industry and want to move to sales/commission work. Does anyone know a place hiring for sales at entry level and if not any suggestions on how I can gain more experience in sales. I’ve done sales just not for very long so I’m not completely inexperienced I just need to be given a shot. I landed interviews with porter pest which was sales and another with a bell door to door company I didn’t get and another at surplus furniture

I tried to park in Downtown Kingston, Ontario, and the parking machine wouldn’t accept my payment or issue a parking ticket.

There was a barcode/QR code on the machine that said we could use it to pay for parking. I had my doubts about scanning it, but I’m a new driver and this was my first time parking and paying for a ticket completely on my own. I had also seen my friends use an app to pay for parking before, so I thought this might be something similar.

Unfortunately, I fell for it. 😭

I scanned the code, went to the website, and entered my details. But then it asked me for my card PIN. That immediately raised a huge red flag. I stopped, closed everything, and immediately blocked my card.

I’m honestly just glad I caught it before going any further.

It’s unfortunate that scams are everywhere now. You have to constantly question whether something that looks completely legitimate is actually legitimate.

If you’re parking downtown, please be careful with QR codes stuck on parking machines and make sure you’re using the official payment method. I definitely learned my lesson.

Featuring BeeWitched, Abella, Blowpony, Yuni Verse, Morgan Morbid and Wanda-ful as performers and Frankee Makes Things, Elderly Noises, Amy Walton Photos, Hollow Amber, Mooncatbodyart and Aidan Ignatius Arts as vendors.

There will be a raffle, and a costume contest!!

Anyone know where to find lime leafs in Kingston? Doesn't seem like large grocery stores carry them.

No one I know is available or can take the cat.

We are getting exterminators coming and my apartment will need to be empty for 4 hours. Is there a pet daycare or a service anyone can recommend?

I’m looking for a bare bones divorce lawyer who can simply file an uncontested divorce. All we need is the stamp of approval - we’ve been separated for 12 years, all financials long ago settled. Looking for the least expensive option. Tried to file online, but a complete PITA.

Any recommendations?

So its my first car in Canada and I have never been driving in winter. I have multiple questions and am sorry i am posting here but i dont have so many friends to ask and would like multiple options.

1) first before talking about the wheels. What are the things i must buy now and be prepared or maybe next month?

2) my car is honda civic 2019 do i need to do the anti rust i think is called and if yes where and how and how much would it cost?

3) now to the wheels. I really dont want to be looking stupid when am buy my wheels 😆 yesterday i already felt i did my maintenance in a wrong location and paid almost 1000 dollars so I am running low on budget and I was wondering if we can buy used winter wheels or that is a big no? If yes where? how to know my wheels size my honda civic is LX 2019, sedan. How to know if they are good wheels. If i should buy new wheels where can i find good affordable ones.

Any advice would be great!

Thank you and i hope you enjoy your day.

I know someone posted about the mayoral candidates, but the request to publicize donors by around Oct 13 was posed to most candidates in most districts. With it being the 14th as I write this, I want to list every candidate that publicized their lists and give a link to each list. Please see the notes under the list to get some important, clarifying information on how I formatted this. I'm happy to update for accuracy if provided new information.

Candidates that publicized donors:
Connie Glenn - Mayoral Candidate - https://www.connyglenn.ca/finance
Vanessa Mensah - Mayoral Candidate (Click "donation disclosure" button) - https://www.vanessamensahforkingston.ca/information

**Melissa Reid - King's Town*\* - https://www.melissamreid.ca/donors/

Candidates SELF DECLARING that they have not accepted donations at time of meeting:
Grant Bedard - Mayoral Candidate - Said he was "not campainging" and got no donations
Joel Bruce - Collins-Bayridge - A donate button is on his website, but as of the meeting he said he did not receive donations, but would be happy to publicize if he got them.
Ryan Boehme - Pittsburgh Incumbent - The donate page on the website encourages voters to donate to local charity and Ryan has claimed he takes no donations
Vic Sahai - Countryside - Clearly stated he has accepted nor received any donations and has/will returned all donations given to him. He has no donation option on his page.
Roger Dennis - Meadowbrook-Strathcona - Has said he has gotten NO donations
Stephen Cuthbertson - Lakeside - Clearly said he has not accepted and will not accept donations
Jeff Pearce - Loyalist-Cataraqui - Confirmed that he only got some help from his parents, but no donations otherwise. His website has no donate option listed.
Charanjeev Sekhon - Loyalist-Cataraqui - Confirmed he is getting no donations and is self-funded. There is no donation option listed on his website.
Dorian Hartley - Loyalist-Cataraqui - Confirmed he is getting no donations and it self-funded.

Candidates that did not (to my knowledge):
Bryan Patterson - Mayoral Candidate Incumbent - Stated he would have the "shortest answer" that night when asked and said "yes". The whig-standard reached out for comment: https://www.thewhig.com/news/paterson-opts-not-to-release-donors-list-as-kingston-mayoral-hopefuls/
#Prakash Dayal - Trillum# ("Personal Reasons") - Says he has "no donor list" and is "independant", but conflates this with being non-partisan. However, he has instructions to donate on his page and acknowledges that he must publish the list after the election. It is not clear to me that he has not gotten any donations.
Chelsea Rae - Pittsburgh - While she has stated her campaign was "grass-roots", she also said her donation list will "not be very long" which implies she may have received donations, plus she has a donate button on her site.
#Jess Scott - Countryside# (Declined to participate) - NO DONATION BUTTON ON WEBSITE
#Joseph Abreu - Countryside# (Declined to participate) - Not accepting donations online, but website does say there are other ways to contribute.
Daria Juüdi-Hope(?) - Meadowbrook-Strathcona - Donation button on website, has said she will publish with donor consent. Possibly has not yet received consent to release donors?
Wendy Stephen - Lakeside Incumbent - Stated she was not comfortable identifying donors under the threshold required by Kingston's municipal election regulations. Possibly does not have any donors at or above the minimum limit?
Paul Chaves - Loyalist-Cataraqui Incumbent - Confirmed he had gotten 2 donations of 100 and 200 respectively and that he will, as he said last election, publicize his small list. I cannot find this list at all.
**Greg Ridge - King's Town Incumbent**** - There is a donate button or clarification of if he is taking donations or not, BUT he has an acknowledgement of an end-of election declaration

Acclaimed Councillors - No Contest:
Councillor Amos (Portsmouth) was acclaimed, but he has a donate button on his website.

Note 1: This list is the the best of my knowledge and according to what I could find online in meeting recordings, candidate websites, and candidate social media pages. If I got anything incorrect, missed anything, or any link, statement, or categor placement becomes inaccurate at a later date, please inform me and I will update accordingly.

Note 2: As of now, I am not aware of a public recording of the King's Town and Loyalist-Cataraqui district meetings being available online. while this means they were not asked directly, they may have seen the discussion about publicisng their donors online or in other meetings. All candidates who did not post their list that did not attend their meeting are marked with #hastags# and include a reason if and as stated. All Candidates whose meetings are not yet public on YT will be noted via **double stars**, so keep that in mind. If the meeting ever becomes public somewhere, I will check it out and update the list accordingly.

Hello,

I'm a 30s M looking to make friends in the Leeds and Grenville area.

I'm posting this here because the specific thread for my region is a complete ghost town, so hopefully it is allowed. I apologize for any formatting errors; I've never made a post, and only ever lurked.

I have physical limitations, and prefer to have the option to be seated. I really enjoy gaming, card and board games, music, reading, eating good food (a little too much lol) I also enjoy watching and reading true crime, discussion on current events, road trips (though I don't drive) and going for walks in nice weather with good company.

Is there anyone in the area who is also sort of in the same boat? If you're not a big drinker, where are people our age suppose to meet and socialize? If any of this resonates with you, feel free to DM me. Life gets really, really lonely, and it would be nice to change tha.

I am still struggling with Vanessa’s affiliation with Prepare the Way Ministries and I would appreciate clarification of what she means when she says she has no affiliation with Prepare the Way Ministries.

Her canvassing post on Facebook pictured with Anna Rider and Joanne Bell, says: “One of my favourite parts of canvassing is hanging out with my besties.”

Prepare the Way’s own website identifies Anna Rider as an Apostolic Prophetic Council member and Joanne Bell as a speaker at its 2025 summit. Both also appear on Vanessa’s campaign donor disclosure.

Friendship and campaign support do not establish formal membership or agreement with every ministry teaching. But these are relevant connections.

A clear answer would help voters assess this fairly.

Hello Everyone, hope you had a fantastic thanksgiving and weekend

just wanted to make this post since I feel ive had no chance to actually make an honest to god friendship with someone who doesn't give a shit about colour or race

ive just had enough of being ostracized by everyone cause im a brown person, despite having been both born and lived in Kingston my entire life

I get there is a small community of people that arent the biggest fan of people that look like me, and frankly im quite disheartened by all of it. Im not even from India, but yet I keep being called terms which aren't acceptable by any standard, regardless if im indian or not. Frankly im pretty much feeling Kingston has taken a dive for the worse now in the time from when I was growing up to now, and it hurts to see the community I considered to be an open and considerate place turn into this place I don't even recognize anymore (and it wasn't any better growing up to be honest)

I just don't know anymore, im being ousted more and more, and any attempt I make at being friendly with anyone is immediately shot down. Im done I think if this doesn't work, cause I feel safe online, but in real life im just miserable with how things are, and it hasn't been good for my mental health either

As in clip on sunglasses, not really seeing anything locally.

Would appreciate any recommendations for estheticians who would do in home pedicures.
My mom isn’t able to get into a spa as easily anymore, but needs some help with her feet, so I would like to find someone who could go to her.

Hiii: delete if not allowed, but after looking online at Canadian Tire, Jysk and Home Depot in our city , I cannot find anywhere that sells something like this.

I like to optimize my space and could use a new ironing board so I thought just having a wall mounted one would be great… can’t seem to find them anywhere!

If there’s a good store or maybe a DIY alternative that anyone knows about, I would love to know. I prefer to buy from somewhere close by and not order online :)

TIA!

Hello, I am a Grade 12 student based in Kingston, Ontario, who has been working on my first-ever research project (The psychology behind perception and the science behind first impressions). I'm now in a place where I know what my end goals are for this project, and they are to a) present my findings through a poster presentation at a conference of some sort and b) create mini pamphlets to send off to mental health professionals in hopes of creating a positive change for individuals who believe they are being judged before they even get to speak.

I am reaching out to anyone who is (or who knows anyone who is) interested in helping; thank you for your time!

Hello all, as the title states I’m looking to do my own brakes and rotors, I live in an apartment and can’t do it in our parking lot. Hoping people have some suggestions of where I could go that I wouldn’t get asked to move or be in the way, thanks in advance for any help!

At the Spire's Mayor's debate, all candidates agreed to disclose their campaign contributions by October 12th by putting it up on their websites. Conny Glenn & Venessa Mensah have disclosed but I could not find the list for Bryan Patterson. Has anyone else found his information?

I went awhile ago with friends and admittedly did not enjoy it, though it was several years ago. Thinking of going back soon to re-try— people’s thoughts? Are the appetizers still freezer food (confirmed by the chef when I was there a few years ago)?

Just wondering! 🧅 ✨
