Do you ever wonder if uSave Flooring has a shoplifting problem? With a slogan like “Prices so low, just take it and go!” they’re pretty much asking for one, aren’t they? They do sell a lot of product that wouldn’t be the easiest to sneak off with, which probably helps. But if someone did, would …

Miltons To Cease Beating Up Disabled Patrons
I wrote about the service dog denial situation at Miltons restaurant not long after it happened, but hadn’t talked about it since. Boy oh boy, a lot sure has happened since. Charges were filed and later withdrawn, settlements were reached, apologies and donations were made. And now, for reasons that the owners won’t comment on …

I May Have Dodged A Snow-Covered Bullet!
Everybody, sing along! Having gridlock Christmas was almost my experience. The plan was to head out today and head for Mom and Dad’s place, about 300 miles away.

We Voted Today…We Hope
Well, we voted. The experience was, to put it mildly, a complete clown show. Let’s break down what happened, shall we? The nice fellow at the registration table had no idea what an audio voting machine was or even if they had one. This in spite of the fact that it was clearly stated in …
Kitchener Municipal Voting Info
So the municipal election is coming up soon. I’m a big loser and am writing this post now, as opposed to earlier so it could be more helpful. But I guess today is still an advance voting day, so if you like to vote in advance…run! You can either vote today, or on Election day, …

We posted Regional Council a couple weeks ago, and now here are council and school board candidate roundups for Kitchener and Cambridge.
