Yesterday between 2-3:30 pm someone took a folding table with books on it. I have a little library that I fill with books for the neighbourhood to enjoy. Over the weekend I put out a table with dozens of books and a free book sign. The table had tons of visitors, some taking books some leaving some. Then yesterday someone stole the table with the remaining books leaving my free book sign behind. Who does this kind of thing? I have posted signs on my lawn asking for my table to be returned. Who knows if they will happen but I need the table for thanksgiving!! Located on Esther dr. If anyone knows someone who is bragging about getting a folding 6’ table please ask them to return it!!

Can anyone tell me what I can try? I’m beyond annoyed. It’s an every day thing.

Can anyone tell me what I can try? I’m beyond annoyed. It’s an every day thing. I’ve given up trying to pick it all up because it’s just the same nonsense the next morning. I’ve tried mint, bleach, amonia, repellant, noise sticks you put in the ground to scare them off, left my outside light on, bungy cords to keep the life shut but my life are distorted from teeth marks and been chewed. I think the only thing I haven’t tried at this point is poison. It’s only ever my bins and I’m assuming it’s because of the baby diapers but you can’t put it in anything else. My neighbours are getting mad because it’s always like this every single morning and I’m just annoyed myself. Source

I wake up this morning to find my car has been broken into and my stuff rummaged

I wake up this morning to find my car has been broken into and my stuff rummaged through. The vehicle smells horribly like stale cigarette smoke, which tells me they sat in my car for awhile as they went through my papers and glove compartment 😡đŸ„ș. As far as I can tell, nothing was taken except for a couple of chocolate bars I had bought for my friend's son. I feel so violated and scared. I lived in the inner city of Toronto for years and I've never encountered such brazen and disgusting low lifes. Since we moved to this city, our door has been tampered with and the locks picked, our icicle lights that we hung in our back deck were cut, and several personal items have disappeared. I am both angered and saddened that this is happening but mostly I'm just scared! Nobody should be fearful in their home. I think my family and I have to rethink our decision to live here. Source

Just a heads up that I went to McDonald’s downtown on dunlop and that my friends

Just a heads up that I went to McDonald’s downtown on dunlop and that my friends and I noticed a meth pipe on the ground after we got up we saw the pipe on the ground and one of my friends got upset and the staff at McDonald’s said they would deal with it in a few minutes, my concern is that what if you were with your own kids or children and saw that or you child picked it up. Is there not a safety consumption site downtown and are people just okay with other people using in there restaurants and not caring about it

tonight as I was stopped at the intersection on Mapleview that enters onto the 4

tonight as I was stopped at the intersection on Mapleview that enters onto the 400 northbound a man approached my car at a red light knocking on my window trying to get me to roll down my window to ask what street I was on. Instantly my gut told me to make sure my doors were locked and to obviously not roll down my window since I found it weird that he had a working phone in his hand, he could have simply looked it up or literally turned his head up to see the street signs. Once he realized that I was not going to roll down my window to talk to him he quickly left. I wanted to post this a reminder for women of barrie to stay safe and keep a keen eye out for weird things happening, I hope no one else has had this happen to them Source

What is with the rush to get on the ramp for the highway?

What is with the rush to get on the ramp for the highway? I cross as a pedestrian 5 days a week at the on ramp on mapleview just past barrieview dr. And today a driver in a redish colour pickup truck drove around me, I was already a quarter of the way across on my green light and when I looked up in shock at nearly being run down, I was dismayed that it was another couple and he gives me a wave thanks, as if I had waved him through. Last week same scenario with some kid. The week before it was someone else. I have been nearly hit a minimum of 3 times a week for years now. Why do drivers think they own the road, it is actually the law that when it's the pedestrians green light, the driver before making the turn must wait till they are safely across the street and on the opposite curb before making the turn. I'm so tired of nearly being hit! Drivers, slow down, let the pedestrian cross safely and be respectful of them. Source
