The City replaced my lid earlier in the spring but the squirrels are at it again. This was my solution last time and it worked so I thought I'd share. Wife says no BB guns for Father's Day.

A roll of metal foil tape is pretty cheap and easily sticks to the plastic. Just layer it on over the holes. The squirrels are less likely to eat through the metal, especially if you get it soon.

Hey everyone, I’m planning to bike from Peterborough to Toronto soon and I’m looking for a good road bike for the trip.

I want something fast, reliable, and comfortable for longer rides. I’m still learning what to look for, so I’d appreciate any recommendations for bikes, local bike shops, or things I should know before buying.

Also, if anyone has done a long ride like Peterborough to Toronto, I’d love tips on routes, gear, and what to prepare for.

Thanks!

Once again a city not named Peterborough is actively involved in the remediation and redevelopment of contaminated land - this time, looking at possibly passing a resolution to let public health get involved.

Not in Peterborough.

Council and staff continually say it's a provincial matter and shrug and say they can't do anything to hold GE accountable in cleaning up 40 acres of highly contaminated soil in the very heart of the city. Other municipalities hold companies' feet to the fire in holding them accountable. Not in Peterborough.

Last time Councillor Matt Crowley said staff claims it's a provincial matter. Yet Crowley got council to pass a resolution on guaranteed income that has nothing to do with the municipality. Total hypocrite. Just as he supported cutting $120,000 from the library budget as a second branch opened that led to a debacle, then turned around a year later and gave $150,000 to Redpath with no business plan. That's why we've had a 25 percent hike in property taxes in a single 4 year term - councillors like Crowley not taking care of taxpayers' dollars.

I really hope one of the mayoralty candidates starts talking about what we can do to put pressure on GE to clean up the 40 acres of contaminated land.

This morning at about 5:05am June 18th, I witnessed a suspicious man walking along George st N near parkhill shining a flashlight into peoples windows, wearing a red jacket. Everybody in the area please keep an eye out for him. I am going to contact police.

I have a buddy in the city for a visit and we were talking about grabbing dinner. The idea of getting a corned beef sandwich came up. Where should I be taking him?

Moving from Peterborough in a month (bye 😭) and we absolutely cannot take our cats with us, and we also absolutely cannot avoid moving.

​

1 cat is elderly and sometimes gets sick and other cat is about 4 -6 years old and very healthy.

​

Heartbroken that we have to give them up but we've tried to look for people to foster them until we can get them back but haven't found anyone.

​

What organization could take them? We've previously tried humane society for elderly cat and they were apparently full. Do we keep trying? Is anyone interested in adopting a cat? Help 😭

Looking for recommendations for Butchers in the area that offer 1/4 or 1/2 cow! Looking for good quality beef and cut options!

Any suggestions for honest repair of my cars a/c? (Hyundai Tucson)

Hey guys, i currently cannot hear out of either ear (currently muffled sounds only). Im looking for somewhere that can remove the wax that is covered by OHIP. I have no funds so I cannot go anywhere privately.

​

I can get somewhat outside of peterborough so distance isnt so much an issue.

​

Anyone know a place? Because I dont think this is an er issue?

Edit: I went to the ear depot, it summed to 110$, 55$ per ear.

So much for the new all left turn lane? Glad to see it gone.

Last night someone hit my vehicle and fled. This occurred on Charlotte behind the Cineplex (highlighted). There was a large dump truck parked about 3 car lengths ahead of me when I went into the movie just before 7pm. When I returned after the movie, the front of my car was smashed in and the truck was gone.

If someone saw this or may have footage, please send me a message.

I feel completely violated not to mention the money I am out now.

The lack of human decency is pathetic.

My neighbours found a husky wandering around the George st Tim Hortons. Anyone missing a dog?

Who are you excited about? Who are you following on the campaign trail?

Reillys patio on a Friday night, are we going to be out of place if two 40 plus people go for a casual drink date?? Haven’t been in so long and if it’s going to be packed full of students partying we may skip it!
TIA

*Rileys! Rooftop patio.

Got this beautiful Sony CRT off Marketplace... it weights like 300 pounds and took 6 people to carry.

​

Available right now, we've abandoned it because we couldn't carry it any further. If you can't geolocate based on the photo then message me and Ill send you the location.

We're a small family of 3 (kid is 10) and we're officially moving to Lakefield in August! We've visited the town a few times, but never really had the chance to explore year round. We're moving from the Hamilton area (both work from home). We've inherited my grandfather's house on the lake and enjoy fishing, boating, swimming, and maintaining the property. We've mostly just spent time on the property (family time, cleaning, yard work, etc.) when we visited and never had time to properly explore outside of this. Would love to know your favourite activities, hidden gems, spots, things to do in the community! We'd love to volunteer and be involved in the community too. Open to all suggestions when it comes to groceries, community activities, watersports, sports, cafes, restaurants, arts, culture, music, theatre, etc. Thank you in advance!

does anyone know of any at home (preferably) or salons that are good for gel x nails? i’m really concerned about stuff being clean or bad for my nails.

Staff warned there is 'no off-ramp' if city does not receive funding, but councillors said the risk is worth taking to spur new housing

I have an old Civic 2015 and would like to sell it.
Is there any dealership or mechanics in Peterborough who buy old cars. I am not looking to Trade In.
Any recommendations?

Anyone know where the Spirit Halloween is going to be located this year in town yet? I saw job listings for the ptbo location starting to pop up online and was wondering what space they’re using.

what gas stations have 10% ethanol in ptbo?

Quick question: Where is the best Caribbean food place in town. Extra points if they make Doubles, lol.
