We're looking to get a heat pump to supplement heat in a few bedrooms (in addition to the boiler we already have).

We've gotten quotes from Borts, 669 Heat and Climate Control. Their reviews are all pretty similar online. Does anyone here have experience with them for heat pump installations?

Has anyone in Sudbury gotten a diagnosis for Lipedema? I hear Drs here don't or won't do it? If you have, was it your GP or other Dr that diagnosed it.

Minnow Lake residents are petitioning Greater Sudbury for help as rat sightings surge as pest control experts say there is a spike in calls and health officials warn of disease risks.

I love Imagine cinemas in sudbury. Seeing all my buddies in the south struggling to get release day tickets for doomsday while imagine cinemas is barely half booked. Really got it good for certain things up here.

Do you guys enjoy imagine cinemas or do you go to cineplex? Im curious because I havent been to a cineplex in alomst 4 years now. Wonder how they are?

Police in Greater Sudbury have charged a 17-year-old and a 30-year-old local woman after a 42-year-old woman was attacked with a baseball bat at the Energy Court encampment on Monday.

Born and raised in the sudbury district and I'm so sick of asshole drivers. When I was crossing one of the busy downtown intersections to go to work today, and officer in uniform but in an unmarked car almost hit me, when I know he saw me, and I wasn't even past the median and he had to swerve to avoid me, and I yelled that I have the right of way and he was like "I know" than why did you almost hit me? We just passed a law where you have to wait until the pedestrians have crossed! Every day i see wild and dangerous drivers.. do better.

The quality of the nurses there is appalling. They are not properly trained or supervised. Repeated medication errors, rough handling of patients, rude and unprofessional behaviors. Not following best practices or even basic infection control protocols. Challenging patient diagnosis. It's exhausting having to watch your own back.

And the arrogance and reprisals when you point out their errors is just sickening. Inaccurate charting, delayed responses, if any, to your call bells. If you are an independent patient who can care for themselves they seem to not like you for some reason.

It used to be that these types of nurses were the extreme minority and exception. But now it seems they are the majority. And all the good experienced people have left.

Let's not even start about dietary services. I ate better food in the middle of a war zone. And that's if you get anything edible. Diabetics being given food that could seriously hurt them. Food allergies? Not their concern apparently. Oh and don't forget playing the game of "When is my food coming?"

There are still some very good people there, and they must be utterly exhausted. Because, no doubt they are catching shade from patients and family members because of their inconsiderate and unprofessional "Colleagues".

How the heck did this place get Accredited with Excellence?

Edit:

TLDR: In my experience, the quality of care has deteriorated badly—medication errors, poor infection control, delayed call-bell responses, inaccurate charting, rough or unprofessional treatment, and serious problems with dietary services. There are still some excellent staff, but they seem to be overwhelmed. Given these experiences, I genuinely don't understand how the hospital maintains an Accredited with Excellence rating.

More than 200 CUPE workers at Extendicare York in Sudbury held an information picket over a contract that expired more than eight months ago. They are seeking wages comparable to not-for-profit homes.

I posted back in June when I arrived in Sudbury for my Open Window Summer.

First off, I want to thank everyone I met and interacted with for showing me a good time. I did not realize how much my New Orleans accent was really going to make me stand out, but on my second day a woman looked at me and said "That's quite an accent you got on you there!" When I was out and about I got more than a few compliments on my drawl. I wound up picking up some of the local lingo and working it into my vocabulary. I went from "Where y'at?" to "How ya doin' bud?" when friends called.

I hope that everyone in Sudbury really appreciates that a great city you reside in. There are problems like there are everywhere, but it seems like there is a real effort to find solutions. The homeless are an eyesore, but they also seem pretty benign. The loiter in the downtown, but head out to their camp when the sun goes down. I feel that if Sudbury had the ability to re-green your community from the moonscape hell of the 1970s to what it is today the other problems should be minor compared to that.

The nightlight in Sudbury was always great. My only gripe was that the few local breweries seemed to close really early, but I would just pregame there before moving along to the main events of the evening.

The amount of lakes and trails was totally insane. I felt so connected to nature this summer.

I left town on Saturday and by the time I reached Kentucky the temperatures were already 39C. I was ready to turn abound and head back to Sudbury. I am planning on spending next summer in BC, but I will definitely be returning to Sudbury in the future.

I love your city.

Hello! I'm looking for part time work, preferably as a server/bartender. I plan on working this position for at least 2 to 3 years. However, it's come to attention that you must climb the ladder before "earning" that position within the workplace. So my question is to all the local servers.

1. How did you start (host, food runner, etc.)?

2. How long did it take to move up the ladder?

3. Or were you able to just jump right in as a server without working an entry position?

For context I haven't worked yet and I'm 20. Anything helps!

Does anybody know anything about the CRA sp01 and sp02 position at the CRA? How many days a week would I have to work? Does it start at 8:00am? Wondering cause I’m off this fall for school but I’m taking extra classes and wanna know what it’s like.

Hello! Does anyone know where someone could make some friends? I'm a 20 year old male looking to make some friends in Sudbury. I pretty much enjoy doing anything because I enjoy the company more than the activity. I'm looking more so for male friends due to the fact that I've been noticing my life is lacking a lot of male relationships through both friends and family. However, if I can make a female friend as well I welcome it! I've been feeling a little lonely lately and thought of joining a gym or something but don't know how likely it is to make a friend there. Any suggestions on where to go or what to do will be greatly appreciated! Thank you for reading

Looking for a nice hotel for a quiet solo staycation in Sudbury. Would like everything onsite and not have to leave the hotel: nice restaurant, room service, pool, spa. Just a touch of luxury, a place to relax, unwind, read a book. Suggestions?

Looking for some kind of league? Or hobby that gets together one a week, or a month.

I just want to get out other than work and obligations and have something for myself
But I’m really not even sure what adults do anymore.

Examples like, a bowling league, darts, but not those because I don’t want to do either. What else is there to do?

Anyone get disposable cameras developed at Café Obscura? I got two of them mailed there and they were delivered August 4th but have only got one email from them regarding my last name.

I’m just wondering what the time frame is to get them emailed them to me? There was nothing on their website and I don’t want to bug them just yet so I was curious.

Thanks everyone.
