What is wrong with people. Using left turn lane to merge, nearly causing an accident if the first car is a bit faster.

Context: I saw this person putting up Alan Ho signs on lawn without permission, including mine. Not sure if they had permission from other houses, or no permission at all. They did not knock on the door to ask for permission or get approved ahead of time. Is it legal to put signs without permission?

DISCUSSION what’s one thing you’d improve about your Markham neighbourhood?

not necessarily some massive billion-dollar project. could be a missing sidewalk, better bus shelters, more trees, a small public space or a safer crossing.
curious what little improvements would make the biggest everyday difference.

What's with the lights at McCowan and Steeles?

12 Upvotes

The left turn advance arrow from McCowan southbound to Steeles eastbound takes forever. This evening I was in the left turn line for over 10 minutes. I saw the advance arrow skip a cycle then skip 2 cycles before I was eventually able to turn.

Does it always skip cycles or is it timer or presence detection based or something?

Ding-dong-ditch

11 Upvotes

Is anyone else having a problem with kids ringing their doorbell? My mom works from home and complains that kids keep targeting our house for ding-dong-ditch.

We live in the area near Rouge Park Public school (Hwy 7 and Donald Cousens). No kids living here and it's only been a problem in the last 6+ months. No idea why kids would pass like 5 houses just to come and annoy us.

Kung fu / Chinese martial arts folks in Toronto: come try Shuai Jiao with an authentic Tianjin-style master (Scarborough, Sundays)

2 Upvotes

Hey all,

I've been training Shuai Jiao (traditional Chinese wrestling) with a small group on Sunday afternoons in Scarborough. Our coach is from Tianjin and learned the traditional style there, which has been really cool.

We're just a handful of hobbyists, and it'd be great to have more training partners, especially people from other kung fu or martial arts backgrounds. It's fun to compare how different styles handle balance, throws and grips.

Is anyone around here into this kind of thing? Or does anyone know other places in the east end where people practice traditional Chinese martial arts? Happy to chat about it.

There are seemingly countless lost cat posters around, so it may be one of them. This cat was just sitting by the water at the bridge at the end of Victoria Ave/towards the walking trail, if anyone recognizes it.

Polls are now open online!

Being able to vote for our representatives is a core aspect of being Canadian, being not just a right, but a privilege. Last election the voter turnout was an embarrassing 31.17%. I know we can do so much better!

Good vegan pho?

I want to get pho for lunch today. Any recommended places that have good vegan pho? I don't like the imitation meats. Just want a regular soul soothing vegan broth with tofu and veggies and noodles.

TIA

Involuntary Subscription to Joe Tay Newsletter

12 Upvotes

Has anyone else received a Joe Tay email without having signed up to his newsletter? I'm curious who illegally sold their mailing list, because wtf.

This is the response when I asked to know how I ended up on their list because it's a CASL violation:

I’m sorry if you did not want to receive the email. You can use the unsubscribe link and you will not receive any more emails from us. My campaign has received help from many grassroots individuals and organizations. Our list of contacts comes from many different sources, including individual supporters. We do try as best as possible to ensure no one's privacy is compromised, but our system isn’t perfect and I can’t say where each individual email address originated.

Once again, I’m sorry you received an email you didn’t want. I have unsubscribed you from our mailing list.

The only issue you need to pay attention to is who is against the registry and who wants it.

If they don’t want it, they are doing things they don’t want you to know about.
