Reckless Driver Plowing Thru Bike Lane 23rd

This was last Sunday August 9. Called the non emergency number and they answered right away but they never followed up for the video. The driver turned off the road when they saw me trying to get the plates after this. Hoping someone on here recognizes the car

Woodify*Caution

Posting this to caution others about purchasing custom furniture from Woodify. Custom epoxy furniture owned by a male named Phillip.
My husband and I bought our first house together September 2025 and wanted a nice custom epoxy wooden table as our first piece of furniture. We reached out to Woodify because we liked their photos. I spoke with a woman named Carol who said it takes about 5-7 weeks from wood selection for the table to be completed, she was very pleasant. We ended up going with them thinking we’d have our table in a couple months. Got our quote, which was expensive but we were ok with it for a nice custom table we planned to keep for life.
Fast forward to end of October 2025, almost 2 months later, still didn’t hear anything about wood selection so I reached out. I was also expecting a baby so I wanted to get it over with. Between every single interaction it would take Phillip 3-6 weeks to reply. He promised me multiple times we were going to be selecting our wood very soon. Then December rolls around after trying to make contact. He then promises end of January 2026 completion. So then January rolls around, still nothing.
At this point I had my husband take over communication because I was busy with my children and I didn’t feel like I was being respected. As soon as my husband took over, things started moving instantly. Instantly. Wood selection a couple months later. Weeks and weeks between each response about the table. He clearly did care about me as a female customer considering he was prompt once my husband took over comms.
Finally in July 2026 the table is done. Yes, July 2026. We purchased it in September 2025. That’s not all..
THEN, Phillip advises that we can’t even get the table yet because his delivery guy is in British Columbia, we are in Ontario. So we had to wait almost another full 2 months before we got the table because he had to wait for this guy to come east.
THEN. The delivery date comes. We were given 3 different times for delivery and 2 different dates to which they didn’t come for. They didn’t come until 7pm on the last date they offered. Right as I’m getting my kids to bed nonetheless. These guys come in, barely speak English. Like it was so frustrating. They are clearly not regular movers. They did not have the proper gear to move a very heavy table or install it. They were hitting and bumping things as they came in, it was embarrassing. Took them an hour to put the legs on the table. Then they left my house with garbage everywhere and the table wasn’t even where we wanted it.
Needless to say, I DO NOT ever recommend anyone buy custom furniture from Woodify. we waited 11 months for this table, pathetic. And we spent a ton of money on it and don’t feel like we received the quality we were guaranteed nor the white glove service we were promised.
The company Woodify is legit but very unprofessional, disrespectful and the customer service is ridiculous. Highly recommend buying custom furniture anywhere else but them. I can post photos is anyone is curious.

Just commented in r/Ontario for the first time. Am I missing something?

I don't understand how I posted hateful content? Are the mods known for power trips over there or something?

Kanata families did your basement and garage make the move way bigger than expected

Families in Kanata, did your basement and garage end up adding way more than expected? Bedrooms sound simple, but then there are bins, tools, bikes, winter tires, shelves, toys, and random boxes. Did movers ask about all that before quoting, or did it only become obvious once everything had to be loaded?

Brady List for Police

I was reading about Brady Lists in the usa. It seems that cops who lie, falsify and omit testimony at a trial are sometimes put on this list allowing defense lawyers to bring the officers credibility into question at subsequent trails.

Do we need to have a central registration for these cops?

business partner wants out after 6 years and now I realize we planned basically nothing lol

Been running a small business with the same guy for about 6 years. We started it when we were both broke and honestly the “agreement” back then was basically: 50/50, don’t screw each other over, figure it out as we go. Which worked surprisingly well until now.

He told me last week he wants out. No drama between us really, he’s just tired of it and wants to do something else. Problem is neither of us has any clue what his half is actually worth. Business has equipment, contracts, recurring clients, some debt, cash in the company etc. He thinks we should just look at last year's profit and pick a number. I’m thinking there’s no way it’s that simple. Then I pulled out our old paperwork and realized our shareholder agreement is embarrassingly basic. Nothing useful about valuation, buyouts, what happens if someone leaves, deadlines... basically all the stuff that would be nice to have RIGHT NOW.

Been reading about business law and buy-sell/shareholder agreements all weekend and yeah, probably should've cared about this 6 years ago instead of now.

Anyone who gone through buying out a business partner how did you figure out a fair value without both sides thinking the other was getting screwed? Accountant first? lawyer first? business valuation?

Would especially like to hear from someone who managed to do this without destroying the friendship in the process, thanks
