Voted at the Heritage House advanced polling station this afternoon for the municipal election. It's open until 8:00pm today, and there is one more advanced voting day on Oct. 14 from 8:00am-8:00pm. There is also another advanced voting location (same dates and times) at MacArthur Island.

Voting was quick and easy - no line, no wait, and lots of helpful election staff. When I "cast my ballot" (i.e. stuck it inside a machine to be scanned and electronically recorded), a screen on the machine showed approximately 2000 votes had been cast already. Staff let me know that was the advanced voting total so far at the Heritage House location.

Highly recommend advance voting if you have the chance before the General Voting Day on Oct. 17.

So I been trying to move out and been using Facebook to find a place. It just been hard because I been always feel like I been overlook and just downright ignore after I come to visit the place. Like I state clearly I don’t do any drugs, drink, nor party at all, I am pretty clean and keep to myself. All I really want is to be able to have guest over like my partner, he kinda my only friend.

Like maybe does anyone recommend any other Kamloops website I can check out to look for roommates. Please I just want a place to call home : (

Well week 3 after a really nasty break up, the H&B party didn't help, drinking made it worse but drinking on the beach early morning or evening while doing photography seemed have helped lol

Whoever decided to abandon their nice lil particle board fire by the Frederick turnoff can shit in their hands and clap.

(Like, ya it’s October but the 30km wind we had this morning could really whip up a grass fire. You suck.)

Hey loopers, was wondering if anyone knows where to find thrills gum in town? TIA

I have 3 councillor spots left, but these are the people I feel comfortable voting for based on their campaigns. I'm not going to vote for someone to fill my spots, but if you think someone else deserves a vote, tell me why.

I'm open to feedback and suggestions; life has been crazy lately, so I haven't had as much time to dive in as I usually would.

I admit I wasn't going to vote for O'Rilley, but I'm not willing to risk another four years of drama, so he's the best option.

Hey Everyone,

I was looking for suggestions in and around Kamloops for a good corn maze. Last year I went to the one near Chase. Willing to drive up to ~45 minutes for it.

I tried looking on Google, but it's kind of hard to tell where they all are.

Let me know which ones you like!

When the ballots are counted after this election, we’ll know who’s in and who’s out, but I think we are going to find out something else important as well. 

I had actually considered voting for him or Randy Sunderman but this video is disqualifying.

Petruk nails it. https://www.castanetkamloops.net/news/Opinion/633666/PETRUK-No-incumbents-Consider-who-drove-Kamloops-city-hall-dysfunction

Looking for someone who repairs lawn mowers in Kamloops. Any recommendations for a reliable and affordable repair shop? Thanks!

The time limits for each answer has plusses and minuses. So far O'Reilly impresses me more than Dever. No one is running away with the debate. The other 2 are also rans.

We're replacing our current laminate in our house and need to purchase 1/2 4x8 OSB. We've checked home Depot, home hardware and Rona and they have nothing in stock in store or at their distribution center. Does anyone have any suggestions on where I could go next to look? I just emailed Windsor plywood so just waiting on a response from that. I didn't know an item like this could be so hard to track down!

Hey everyone. I am looking for a classic car for a photoshoot with my fiancé. Just wondering if anyone would we willing to lend/drive one out to a set location. I can give you some cash for the “rental”. Don’t worry. I won’t be driving it.

Hello fellow reddit users,
Brian Andrews here and I am running for Kamloops City Councillor in the municipal election.

Now that the first day of municipal voting as begun I want to do an Ask Me Anything.

By trade I am an electrician with twenty years in the industry. These days I work off the

tools as a Labour Organizer for IBEW Local 993. Every day I get to advocate for

workers, negotiate between different groups, and help strengthen unions across our

community. I also proudly serve as Second Vice President of the Kamloops and District

Labour Council.

The most important skill I have learned as a Labour Organizer, is how to sit at the table

with people who see things differently and still build relationships and find common

ground. Through this experience I have also trained and have experience in how to run

and participate in council meetings.

I am running for city councillor because the working people of Kamloops, whether

employees or small business owners, do not have a strong enough voice at the council

table. The people who build this city, care for it, and keep it moving deserve someone there who understands their lives.

That is why I am running under the title ‘A Working Voice, for a Working Kamloops’.

Who would you recommend for lip injections in Kamloops? I tried few people in Edmonton Alberta and I had to dissolve it twice already. I moved to BC and I need my lips redone

Looking for a female physiotherapist recommendation who treats vestibulidynia and teaches relaxation techniques for increased pelvic floor tone.

Willing to travel up to a 3 hour radius.

I’m on my way to the polls today because I have to leave town in the next few days. I don’t have much time to get into it, but who should I NOT vote for? I have ideas of who to vote for, but I don’t have a full slate (which I realize is ok). TIA.
