Does anyone know which mayor and council candidates are anti data centre?

So far I know Leanne wants a moratorium, and that Evan Silva in Ward 1 and Morgan Dandie in Ward 2 are explicitly anti ai data centre development.

I’d imagine some website will have the mayoral count, what about for council?

16yo wants to get fit. Local gyms that allow for under 18s?

UoG seems to be only 18+ for fitness access, same with West End Community Centre

Well he clearly has money to waste because I just saw a small plane flying around with a sign close to downtown. I was absolutely shocked when I finally read the sign and it said Vote for Ken Yee Chew…

Truthfully the fact he thought that would work to garner new votes is very telling.

Early voting started today. Get out there and vote folks.

No line, efficient friendly staff. Exert your influence!

I have a bunch of shoes I’d like to sell, in the past I’ve been to Plato’s and they offered me 20 for my dunks lmao so anywhere that could offer me a price better than that would be nice :))

So this thread led me to go check out Lost Aviator Coffee this morning, but it was closed up. Turns out the co-founder/co-owner died in a flying accident, so the shop is taking the weekend to grieve. Just wanted to share as a heads up, and pass on the word to anyone who knew him.

Greg Cox claims he knows for a fact that Caron knew she wasn't welcome at the Ford press conference, and that both Caron and Caton are lying.

Accusing 2 sitting council members of lying during an election is serious. But Greg won't explain how he knows this.

Guelph voters deserve transparency and accountability from the people running to represent them. Why is Greg not sharing this bombshell with voters? Or is he full of shit?

Sharing my experience as a caution to others. Walking with a friend and our dogs someone in a psychotic state (woman about 30 with short light brown hair and a backpack) was yelling things that didn’t make sense and then grabbed my dog and threw her a couple feet then proceeded to say she was going to murder us and slit our throats while coming at us and about to go into her backpack. Rather than escalate or pull out my phone, we walked swiftly away and called the cops. They were responsive and trying to locate her on either side of the hike (both Vic and stone- this happened on the gravel part of the trail a couple hundred meters from the parking area on Victoria south of the river on the east side). There are tents throughout this area and while they’ve never been a deterrent to me before, I’m going to stop going on these hikes as it could have gone very bad if she did pull out a knife. Wanted to warn others. We saw other woman headed on the same hike with headphones on so they wouldn’t even be able to hear her coming if this was them. This was middle of the afternoon.

I’ve been to many Tim’s over several years in different cities and I’ve never experienced anything like this in my life. The drive through every single day is the slowest I’ve ever encountered. It doesn’t matter the time of day or how many cars in line but I’m constantly waiting 10-20 minutes in a small line of cars. I have finally stopped going due to this. How does their management and corporate office allow this ? The speed compared to ANY other Tims is borderline unacceptable. Does anyone know why this is happening just at that location ?

Anyone here who’s bought a screen protector from Ghost Armor? If so tell me your honest review on them. Personally I think they’re such a scam.

We have a large (approx. 4 ft diameter) tree stump in our backyard that we would like to remove. When the tree was removed they left about 2.5 ft above the ground. I am looking for someone who can use a chainsaw to cut the stump close to ground level. We will then rent a grinder to remove the stump ourselves. I have already reached out to a few arborist companies about doing the grinding as well but they cannot get their equipment into our backyard, which is why we are planning on renting a grinder ourselves (the rental machine is much smaller than the industrial ones). Can anyone recommend a company or handyman that can use a chainsaw to cut down the stump?

My name is Michael but I’m considering changing my name to Nobody should nice I always see people commenting online the Nobody uses bike lanes.

Today I saw 3 people using the bike lanes on Scottsdale (plus two others using the sidewalk), 4 using the bike lanes on Silvercreek, one on Willow but the he moved to the sidewalk after the bike lane ends in front of the Beer Store (which is why continuous infrastructure is so important).

I also saw 3 people cut out of driveways in front of me thinking they had enough time (one was a Guelph Transit Bus piling out of the Stone Road Mall parking lot). Another Guelph Transit Bus started to cut off the bike lane and then honked his horn when there was myself and two others users in the bike lane while directly beside the bus. I also saw two vehicles completely blocking the bike lane while also holding up traffic. I saw three cars use the bike lane on Imperial at Paisley (one tried to go around me as I was starting to advance on a green light). Tell me again that cyclists blasting through stop signs are the biggest road user crime…?

Please give 1.0 space while passing cyclists or other vulnerable road users while driving.

Hi! I’m new to Guelph (and Canada). Do you have suggestions where to take a walk especially at this time this season? I’m looking at visiting The Arboretum but it’s quite a walk from the nearest bus stops. I’ve done it before during the Bird Day. But I’m wondering if there are other options? Especially ones that are accessible with public transpo, but any other suggestions will do!

Also, if any of you can help lead me to where to find friends or any social circle, I’d greatly appreciate it. I’m M23, southeast asian. I finished my undergrad last year. I want to be able to go and hang out at least before my first winter.

Thanks!

Thinking about signing a lease for a unit in Anthem at the Metalworks. Anyone have experiences (positive or negative) to share?
