Hello again everyone,
If any of you have been following what I’ve been up to over the last year, then you’ll know I'm a pretty passionate and intense advocate for the most vulnerable in our community. And I’ve been realizing a few things about our community throughout my journey of establishing this food charity.
Firstly, the amount of suffering that exists in our own backyards is a crime in itself. The sheer number of people who go hungry daily is outrageous, and I’m seeing it first hand. The second thing is that most people are unaware of the amount of suffering. It isn’t in the news, and if it is, the pain of those suffering isn’t illustrated much. And thirdly, when you tell people what’s really going on, and then give them an opportunity to actually make a difference, they want to get involved and make our world a better place to live in. ❤️
A couple weeks ago, I reached out to our program’s current and past recipients and asked them if they could share some of their st…
Is there any plan to increase GO train frequency from Barrie -> Toronto. People were literally standing other day. Also why it takes so much time for a train to travel such short distance.

Just so you’re aware, there is a raccoon on the driveway of the corner house 181 Charlemagne Ave and Sovereign’s Gate
Be cautious of the animal when going on a walk in the neighborhood
As the sun was going down and standing distance from the animal, the picture makes it look less like a raccoon and more like a cat, though the animal is a raccoon
The tail is a main indicator seen in the picture

Does anyone know who can be contacted regarding the plaza at Grove with the Tim Hortons?
The lights on the far side of the plaza have been not working for at least two years and driving in there at night it’s incredibly dark. It’s hazardous to not only people who just dart out but also the pavement is in horrendous shape. You’d think for safety purposes they’d want to ensure there was functional lighting….

I preface this complaint with the fact I have spent over 17 years driving in Toronto. Barrie has by far the worst drivers I have seen. Specifically people with larger trailers on the backs of vehicles merging and changing lanes. There is not a day that goes by where someone with a trailer does not cut me off assuming I should drive on the shoulder or ditch to accommodate their taking over the lane I’m in 😳

Here is what can happen when dealing with a rabid fox and why it’s important to keep your distance from foxes (or any wildlife) no matter how harmless you may think they are. I could not imagine if this was a child!

Hi everyone. 2 weeks ago a gift from my mom she got me were stolen from La Fitness in park place when a friend of mine accidentally pulled them out of my bag and left them when getting her things and I wasn’t aware. They were left in the small class studio part of the gym where there’s no cameras and they were stolen from there. I’ve been through the ins and outs with La fitness so this is kind of my last resort. There’s no cameras In or around that part of the gym. I just throughly I’d post here in case anyones children or anyone they know suspiciously turned up with a very expensive and limited edition pair of beats headphones. There were young guys - teenagers left in the gym area at that time. If anyone suspects someone you know stole them I would greatly appreciate if you’d let me know. These headphones are very important to me.😭 I would replace them myself, and I was intending to when they went on sale but I got in a bad car accident and my car might be a write off so I…
