Hello again everyone,
If any of you have been following what Iāve been up to over the last year, then youāll know I'm a pretty passionate and intense advocate for the most vulnerable in our community. And Iāve 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 Iām seeing it first hand. The second thing is that most people are unaware of the amount of suffering. It isnāt in the news, and if it is, the pain of those suffering isnāt illustrated much. And thirdly, when you tell people whatās 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. ā¤ļø

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 itās incredibly dark. Itās hazardous to not only people who just dart out but also the pavement is in horrendous shape. Youād think for safety purposes theyād want to ensure there was functional lightingā¦.

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 Iām in š³
