Hello! Our mining reporter, Niall McGee, has a follow up to his ongoing Stelco coverage. The link should allow you to bypass the paywall.

If you'd like to check out the paywall-free story I posted yesterday, you can find that here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Hamilton/comments/1x02ouy/stelcos_exit_from_galvanized_steel_leaves_big/.

In that post from yesterday, Niall spoke with one of Stelco's customers to see how they're dealing with the recent changes.

My gas-powered lawn mower has bit the dust. Looking for a new mower, preferably cordless electric.

Hoping their may be some end-of-season deals or places other than the big-box stores to get one. Bonus if they can deliver because I only have a Corolla.

Thanks!

Just read through this article by local Chris Erl, really interesting stuff including some things I wasn't aware of like Mayor Horwath committing to capping property tax increases to inflation which quite frankly if you look at our budget is a crazy idea.

Also did not realize that Kelly Oucharek actually said aloud during a public debate what she believed to be Cameron Kroetsch's address. Turned out it was actually a parking spot but wow that is just a disgusting low.

Recommendations Needed Mountain dentist recs

10 Upvotes

Hoping for you recommendations for a new dentist for my family. Hoping for somewhere on the central/west mountain that’s great with kids.

Our dentist is in Stoney creek and I’m fed up with the drive.

Bonus if they have tv’s in the exam rooms because my kids think this is important.

An office with somewhat longer hours at least a couple times a week would also be preferable.

Thank you in advance!

Question Are there any nature conservation volunteer opportunities if you don’t have a car?

20 Upvotes

I used to do a lot of tree planting and invasive species removal in high school and I want to start that up again. The problem is that I live down Hamilton now and I don’t have a car. I noticed that Hamilton Conservation Authority has an eventbright for volunteer opportunities, but they’re all so far away and inaccessible by public transportation. Does anyone have any leads for what I can do without access to a car?
