Who decided to paint the fire hydrants white? That’s going to be a problem in winter with a lot of snow. Yellow looked better but well.

Hello, my boyfriend and I both 22 are planning to move to Ontario in the spring (April/May) and I am looking for advice on which area we should look at moving to. We are looking for a cat friendly apartment in an area that has decent access to the essentials. We only have one car so public transit is also important. I have tried looking on subreddits but the opinions are so contradictory and feel very biased. I'm wondering what the pros and cons of living in Oshawa vs. Whitby are? Is the crime in Oshawa really as bad as people say? If you can also recommend neighbourhoods to look at/avoid that is appreciated.

While driving south down Simcoe street a couple of days ago I happened to see local legend Mr. Bunny Ears standing at a bus stop. It was good to see him and his ears out and about. I used to see him fairly frequently, but haven’t seen him in person for quite some time. It’s good to know that he’s still kicking. That’s my post…thanks for reading.

The region is installing protected left-turn signals at Taunton Road East and Harmony Road North in Oshawa as well as at Highway 2 and Courtice Road.

Hi, i have some recycling blue bags that were not picked up today, that I know have picked up before for months,  but now there's a note saying that you only do the blue bins. Why are we not receiving any notification on these changes? We've been having problems with this for a few times now and we don't understand what's going on. We have a "round" blue bin, but you won't pick up that one either. We only have two "big" bin, and a lot of small bins, and we gave a lot of recycling in our home that we have to deal with. Can you guys not decide on what can or can't be picked up or what?
