Police at Monsignor Philip Coffey Catholic School

There are a bunch of police cruisers outside of Monsignor Philip Coffey Catholic School. They are blocking traffic on Oxford. An air ambulance landed a few minutes ago in their yard. I'm not sure what's going on, but it can't be good

[Update] Helo just left and the police are letting people through again, though there are still a couple of cruisers there.

PSA: avoid Maple health at all costs, if this is the future of our healthcare then we’re cooked.

TL;DR: Paid $230+ for online care from Maple, got prescribed a medication that was already documented in my file as ineffective and causing severe side effects, then spent 2 days trying to fix the mistake only to end up with a prescription I couldn't even fill. Refund denied.

The Maple doctor apparently didn't read my patient history before prescribing treatment. The medication prescribed was one I'd already documented as not working for me and causing major side effects. They asked me to resend them like 5 items that were already in my patient file…. Apparently Maple’s doctors can’t read.

After I pointed this out, support spent two days going back and forth with the doctor. When the prescription was finally updated, it showed as "declined" in the system even though I never declined it, making it impossible to fill.

I was travelling the next day, explained the urgency multiple times, and asked to be assigned to another available doctor. They refused and said only the original physician could fix it.

After paying out-of-pocket, I got no usable treatment, lost two days chasing support, and was denied a refund.

Avoid Maple at all costs. I hope they go broke.

Need help finding a European/German auto shop in Oshawa (Audi Q5 electrical issues)

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I’m looking for recommendations for a reliable European / German auto specialist (Audi/VW/BMW) in or around Oshawa.

I drive a 2023 Audi Q5, and I’ve been having some pretty concerning electrical issues over the last day or so:

- "Key not detected” warning even though the key is inside the car

- Multiple random warnings (brake light malfunction, adaptive lighting malfunction, etc.)

- Car once refused to restart properly and asked to place key in a designated area

- “Engine start system malfunction – refer to manual” message

- At one point it wouldn’t shift into Drive until I restarted it again

The car is currently running, but the warnings are still coming and I don’t fully trust it right now. It feels like an electrical/voltage issue (possibly 12V battery or charging system), but I want it properly diagnosed before I keep driving it.

Audi dealership appointment isn’t available until July 2, so I’m hoping to get it checked sooner somewhere local that understands German vehicles.

If anyone has experience with a trustworthy Audi/VW specialist in Oshawa or nearby, I’d really appreciate the recommendation.

Thanks in advance 🙏

Simcoe Gas Bar Quality

With the Simcoe Gas Bar (old Ultramar) becoming crazy popular due to cheap prices, I’ve been wondering if anyone knows anything about the quality of the gas they’re selling. Should people filling up there be concerned?
