Hey everyone! I’m 23F looking to make some new friends now that I'm settled into my new job. I'm pretty down to earth and like spending time outdoors (big fan of river and lake fishing yet still a beginner & love being by the water ), getting into crafty stuff like sewing-still a newbie and keeping active. I love doing fun spontaneous stuff, late night drives etc, I’d love to know if there are any cool local drop-in groups, active Facebook/Bumble friend groups, or just dope spots around town where I could meet people in the same boat . Open to any ideas, thanks! Feel free to dm me as well

Installing LVP in our house, plywood underlayment probably needs some levelling prior to installing the floors. Looking for a recommendation for someone who can do the levelling, or possibly full flooring installation if we opt to not DIY. Thanks!

Hello all. I am looking for different communes throughout British Columbia. I have lived with the 12 tribes, but want to explore others. Is there anyone who could point me in the right direction?

I just got back from a weekend at Cultus Lake with my family and couldn’t help but notice that the locals seemed mostly unfriendly.

My grandparents used to have a house on Alder growing up, and I was excited to take my kids to the area. But from the moment we got there the neighbours (besides one) seemed mostly unfriendly.

I live in a small town now, and smiling and saying hi is the norm. So it was quite noticeable when everyone I was friendly to was mostly unresponsive. Neighbours were quick to come out though if they thought you might be parking in their spot, or ruining their flowers? When walking your stroller to the beach.

I saw neighbours fighting over parking, and everyone seemed very on edge. I got the impression there are alot of air b and b’s and the neighbours all hate them? Our air b and b host sucked and seemed very money hungry and cheap, and generally the community vibes were way off and nothing like i remembered.

Just a thought for those in the area to maybe think about how you want to be perceived because your yucky energy does not make me want to come back. (But maybe that is the intention?) I would say either ban Air B and B’s or embrace them because paying good money to feel unwelcome is not it.

Hi, just looking for any advice on how to secure a rental property.

Some background information: I recently accepted a work contract in Chilliwack and I am moving from another province with my partner. I have been living out of Canada for a few years, and my partner is not originally from here (now is their first time living in Canada, not just visiting). We’re temporarily staying with my family.

Our budget is flexible and matches what’s available, we’re not particularly picky about the place, and I swear we’re polite, very normal, and concise in our messages and emails. We’ve also come to suspect it’s a numbers game and have been reaching out to everything that we’d be comfortable with.

We have been hoping to secure a place without seeing it in advance so when we arrive (we’ll be driving from across Canada) we have our home to stay in without spending extra money on temporary housing.

I’ve suspected that our inability to be there in person might be setting off alarm bells for some of these rental management companies? My partner is also currently unemployed as we’re moving from abroad / out of province and they’re new to the country. The application forms are also very thorough in their questioning, they ask for a lot of details, and as we’re two people I’ve wondered if our “household income” appears too small? But we’re happy with a tiny space as well.. we just would really like a place to call home when we arrive.

Apologies if I’m missing something, we’re feeling very new! Happy to adjust our approach as needed to get better results! Thank you for any advice, support or direction!

Eyy, im moving to Chilliwack to be with my partner, and am looking at rental apartments. Whatre yall paying monthly for rent? Whats a good price i aughta be looking for?

Hello Chilliwack community,

I'm a grad student from UBC working with the Cultus Lake Stewardship Society (CLASS) on a valuation study of Cultus Lake. The lake is currently still healthy, but it is facing some threats to its future health, such as excessive nutrient inflows and reduced seasonal mixing. Our study will capture what would be lost if the health of the lake declines, in monetary terms. The results will help the Society and local governments make informed decisions about future investments in the lake’s health.

As many people from Chilliwack enjoy Cultus Lake, I wanted to post here to invite you to participate.

We are hoping as many people as possible fill out our research survey. It takes about 10 to 15 minutes to complete and at the end you can enter a draw for a $25 Amazon gift card.

Here is a link to the survey:

More information about this project and the work of the Cultus Lake Stewardship Society can be found on the Cultus Lake Stewardship Society website (this is linked at the end of the survey as well).

Thank you for your time reading this and your support of our research project.
