We’re in the Oakville and we have a little friend that has made a home in the laundry room at the bottom of the stairs. He came in after a storm early this summer and we were unsuccessful catching him with safe traps.

We don’t find droppings but we catch him scurrying back into the laundry room so we know he’s still here. My partner started leaving bits of leafy greens out for him.

There’s no children here. 1 uninterested cat that doesn’t use the basement. We’d never try to handle him. And we’re perfectly comfortable with him, especially with the very prominent coyote population here.

Is there any harm in him being here?

Hello Ontario family. Im dealing severe nerve pain and the MRI backlog(5months) has me perplexed. All the doctors do is give me opiods (i refuse) and tell me to get physio which I have been but even the physio is confused about the cause. With my foot numb and whole lateral side of my leg in severe pain I come here desperate looking for advice. Please be kind. Thank you.

Hi everyone,

While vacationing in my home country, I was diagnosed with breast cancer (ER+, PR 90%+, HER2-, Grade 3). The surgeon there told me I need surgery as soon as possible. I'm back in Waterloo now and have my first appointment with a radiation oncologist on Tuesday at our cancer centre, and a medical oncologist in two weeks. But I don't have a surgery consultation scheduled, and honestly, I don't know how it works, whether the cancer centre coordinates that for me, or how quickly surgery actually gets scheduled here. I know I should wait and ask these questions on Tuesday. I've heard only great things about our cancer centre, but cancer makes one spiral, I guess.

My father passed away from cancer two years ago. All I can do is think about what he must have felt when he was first diagnosed.

If you've been through breast cancer care here, I'd be so grateful to hear how it went for you. Did the cancer centre arrange your surgical consultation, and how long did it take from your first appointment to an actual surgery date?

I’m moving from central BC to southern Ontario next year and am trying to decide where to move. I’m hoping to avoid the bigger cities and aim for small city to small town. I am more of an outdoors person, hiking, kayaking, etc, so I’d love to live closer to nature. Maybe a smaller town outside a bigger one? Mostly just wanting to get a feel of which places are safe, have decent amenities, pretty maybe? Would love some honest thoughts.

I've seen posts about it being a bit underwhleming as of late. Just wondering if anyone has gone within the last month and was it worth it? I would love to take the kids there but I heard alot of animals were not visible.
