Community market on Applewood Rd this Saturday (May 23)
Hey everyone,
Just a heads up if you're looking for something to do this weekend or love hunting for deals a bunch of us on Applewood Road (south of the South Service Rd, near Dixie outlet mall) are teaming up for a massive garage sale and neighborhood social this Saturday, May 23rd.
We’ve got a ton of houses participating, so there’s going to be a massive mix of stuff.
What’s up for grabs:
- Tons of tools, hardware
- Furniture, home decor, and kitchen stuff
- Kids' toys, clothes, and baby gear
- Books, collectibles, and the usual
The details:
- When: Saturday, May 23rd. Most driveways will be open by 10:00 AM and it will go till 3pm
- Where: Applewood Road (look for the signs/balloons once you turn in).
- Rain plan: If it absolutely pours, we’ll push it to Sunday the 24th.
We’re trying to make it a bit of a neighborhood block party/social vibe too, so we'll have some refreshments out. Come by say hi, see if there is anything that catches your eye.
Quick favor: If you're driving down, just please be cool with where you park and don't block anyone's driveway or fire hydrants so nobody gets a ticket. Last year we had a couple of people blocked in because it got so busy.

How do you actually get to know a neighborhood?
I’ve been thinking a lot about how people actually get to know neighborhoods, whether after moving somewhere new or just exploring different parts of a city.
What helped you understand a neighborhood fastest?
Not just good restaurants, but things that made you feel like you understood the vibe, routines, or whether you could actually see yourself there.
I’m trying to learn more about how people experience places and put together a short 4-minute survey if anyone’s open to sharing their experience:

Where to buy a bike?
Hi All,
Looking to buy a bike for the summer. I don’t know much about bikes and don’t know where to go without getting ripped off. I’m looking to spend no more than $800. I will be riding the bike mostly down the boardwalk. Can anyone recommend any shops? I live in south Etobicoke. TIA

Hit and Run on 401 near Islington
Hi all,
It's a longshot but I figured I might give it a chance! My dad was driving westbound on the 401 on the morning of May 13th on his way to work, when a white vehicle driving beside him went into his lane and hit him from the side. My dad spun through several lanes of traffic until he finally managed to regain control of the car. The individual who hit him just sped off. His car is a very old Toyota and is most certainly a write-off, although driveable.
I have tried to reach out to OPP to see if they would investigate, but they said there is nothing they can do as there is no dashcam footage or license plate information. I asked if they could check cameras, and they said no. This is absolutely insane to me and I don't really understand the reasoning as he could have been killed by the giant transport trucks that frequent that area.
Is there any way to maybe obtain camera footage myself? Or did anyone happen to be driving in that area when it happened? So sorry if this sounds stupid, I am just at a loss for words that this is now my father's problem and the police won't do anything at all.
Thank you in advance, any and all advice is welcome

Where to buy Cheap Luggage?
I believe buying cheap luggage is the way because they get throw around either way. Anyone have any ideas?

Why was the local Canadian Tire issued approval for 35 TFW work permits in the first place?
The CT that was fined $111,000 last year because "wages, work conditions or the job did not match what was listed in offers of employment and that employees were assigned to work different roles than what they were hired for" was given approval for 35 roles since 2022. The fine has since been paid, which means they're eligible to do the same thing again.
I mean...what the heck. Youth unemployment was between 15-20% during that time. You could have thrown a rock from a roof and hit someone looking for work in Etobicoke. Who on earth was vetting these applications? 35 workers...were any Canadians working there?
This stuff makes my blood boil. Take "Canadian" off the name already.

ISO: Restaurant for Bridesmaid Proposal
Planning my bridesmaid proposal for 7 people total. Torn between using a my own limited space with catering (around $300 total) vs taking everyone out to a restaurant.
Looking for a restaurant that is aesthetically pretty, around $40-55 per person (or a little over what I’d be spending at home) for brunch/light drinks or similar vibe, within Etobicoke or GTA (but ideally outside of downtown Toronto).
If I should go with at home catering, please share any affordable caterer/suggestions as well.
Thanks so much!
