Has anyone used the services of the psychologist Dr. Sara Heimpel of SMH Psychology? What is your opinion about her? Would you recommend her? Thanks a lot for your help!

Trying to find a book club to join in Cambridge area! I am a romance girlie of any kind but I also love a good horror book! Just want to make some book friends in the area! 🥹

Hey everyone so I am looking for someone to go to the gym with. I feel like the only thing holding me back from starting my health journey is the fact that I have no clue how to use the machines or how long to use them for. Or what's the right form so you dont hurt yourself etc. I was paying for a personal trainer before but I really cant afford it. I am female 30 and would want somebody close to my age to go with. Just thought id ask here. Thanks guys!

Was hoping to discuss ward 6 candidates with people! Was anyone leaning towards a candidate? I want Adam Cooper out, but I can’t say I’m terribly inspired by the others.

Barb seems nice enough, but she’s said a few things on social media to put me off. Between suggesting we should have “big bands” visit cambridge (we already are fortunate to have Fest2Fall; and also jumping on Scott Hamilton’s post about mudslinging saying she had also received it, she’s left a bleh taste in my mouth.

Chris I know in passing through the yoga studio. He’s a sweet guy, but not sure if politics is really for him.

Anyone have any thoughts?

Edit: and now I see she’s posted an AI poster for a meet and greet 😖

Hey…
This Saturday I need to go to Kingston early in the morning with my child. How would be the traffic situation in 401 to leave around 5.30 am and return around 4 pm?
I am terrified of highways and even contemplating taking country road that doubles the time. Thanks

Ps - I am an experienced driver. Yet 401 terrifies me

Can anyone do cornrows so that I can install some crotchet braids? My hair texture is kinky texture

Hi everyone,

I’m a recent Personal Support Worker (PSW) graduate from Conestoga College and I’m currently looking for my first PSW position in the Kitchener-Waterloo-Cambridge area.

I’ve been actively applying to PSW positions and trying different ways to find employment, but unfortunately I haven’t had much success so far. I’m hoping someone in this community might be able to point me in the right direction or share any leads for places that are currently hiring new PSW graduates.

I’m open to opportunities in hospitals, long-term care, retirement homes, community/home care, group homes, and other PSW settings. I’m willing to start part-time and build my experience.

If anyone in the KWC area is a PSW, healthcare worker, recruiter, or recently went through the process of finding their first PSW job, I would really appreciate any leads, recommendations, or advice on where to apply.

Thank you!

I'm sure there's someone out there that could fill this job without having to resort to a temporary foreign worker

Hey guys! Just wanted to reach out and see if there's anyone who regularly commutes from Cambridge to Guelph that wouldn't mind making a few extra bucks and having some company on their commute in the mornings! Ubers and lyfts are fine for now, and my partner has been using that until they can drive themselves for the time being. But I figured it's always worth asking! Worst people can say is no! DM if interested, thank you!

Edit: He usually buses down to Hespeler to make it easier first! Start time for him is 7am in downtown Guelph. They work Monday-Friday!

Found them in the Walmart parking lot at Fairview Plaza around 9:45 PM ET and handed them over to Walmart Customer Service Lost & Found.

I’m not posting a photo or details intentionally so they can be safely verified by the actual owner.

If you have access to any local Facebook groups, please cross-post this so it reaches the person who lost them. 🙏

The owner can claim them directly from Walmart Lost & Found. Feel free to DM me if you need any further information.

Looks to be a male wasp bc I see no stinger could be wrong

My partner and I just moved to Cambridge and are looking for things to do. Are there any good social activities (bars, sports leagues, general activities) where we could meet other people around our age? We are open to any suggestions!

From the article:

It’s been just over half a year since the first black and green waste carts were rolled to the end of driveways in Waterloo Region for the start of the new collection system.

In just a few weeks, residents will be able to request a different black cart size.

UPDATE: Fergus has been found!! He came back to his litter box we had outside. He is hungry, but otherwise perfectly fine! He just needed an adventure, apparently. So thankful for you all, we are overjoyed at his return!!!

Missing cat from Main Street in Galt. He's an orange 12 year old cat, we recently adopted him. We call him Fergus, was called Ginger previously. He has a lump on the left side of his face, hidden by his whiskers. We didn't witness him getting out, but we can't find him anywhere. We love him so much already and want him home.

As I said earlier this week tn 9pm outdoor movie at jacobs landing but havent had anyone say they are coming or not so want to get a head count or will just cancel for tn

I wanted to open a sub where we can openly discuss the upcoming Municipal election. Whatever goes.
I attended the Town Hall with Mayoral candidates (Sep24) but was not wowed by most of the candidates. I went in knowing who I intended to vote for and that was surely confirmed after the discussion. I do wish it was a formal debate rather than only a Q&A period. It drives me nuts to see candidates read verbatim from their notes rather than just talking points to keep them on track. I find it torture to listen to note reading. Ryan Bolender, Tony Chaves, and Itsham Haq all read from their notes. Ken Roche was very personable and well spoken but as he said himself “I don’t want to be your mayor, but I will do it if I have to” for change. Incumbent Jan Liggett looked miserable and her tone and demeanour was as if she didn’t want to be there. She even offered for a heckler to come up to the front to say it to her face. Very defensive and honestly very off-putting (not saying I’m surprised). Scott Hamilton, although sometimes referring to his notes, did the best job by far. Although his answers are what you would expect from a councillor vying for the promotion to mayor, I do believe he has all the right intentions and goals for Cambridge. Given his experience and what seems like his genuine interest in doing better and listening to residents, as well as leading from a place of research/evidence - he’s my vote.

I easily linked the signs around the neighbourhood and across the city for Bolender as previous conservative voters. From other subs I read, I believe that hunch is confirmed considering support from other far right loud mouths. I was very put off by Ryan’s visible attitude at the Town Hall. He looked pissed off the whole time, and his remarks reminded me of a few other notable conservative politicians 🤡🤓especially given the debacle with the cold patch asphalt scandal. I was really put off by the fact he’s ok with going around rules and doubling down after the fact. No thank you.

I’m also curious to hear thoughts on your Ward Councillor options. For my Ward 2 - I was really taken with Matt Rogers during their Town Hall. He was so well spoken compared to the other three. I personally admire the youth aspect of Rogers and feel he’d have the enthusiasm to fight for his constituents, even if he has some things to learn. I unfortunately do not feel there will be enough votes for him to be given the chance. Incumbent of 12 years Mike Devine also comes off as miserable and arrogant. From what I gather from other subs and online forums, many of the Ward 2 residents want a change but I still see a lot of his signs up around the neighborhood.

Let’s get discussing and I look forward to reading people’s views.

Someone posted about Cambridge Elects a few weeks back but I wanted to reshare their site now that almost all the town halls are complete (Mayoral is on right now).

www.cambridgeelects.ca

All candidates were given questions ahead so it seemed fair in that way. I do wish they took questions from the floor as even with the variety of topics, not everything I’m interested in was discussed. I guess we all have our special interests.

Anyway, I hope as many of you get out to vote on October 26th as possible!

No hate please this isn't a racist post. Just wondering why so many Chinese tourists? Absolutely love that they are here and enjoying our town but how did it hit their radar?

I noticed something strange that a lot of the posts on in official Facebook page seem to get deleted. Like he’s resharing stuff that ends up deleted. Found that strange.

I also find it frustrating that it seems really difficult to hear about town halls happening. I just found out now that the Mayoral town hall is happening tonight.

I’m not sure if anyone else has noticed this, but there’s been a lot of social media activity via the official accounts featuring Mayor Liggitt lately. This has seemed very suspect, given most mayoral candidates are out campaigning and spending campaign funds on signs and marketing, while our Mayor seems to have very coincidentally released a whole video series of manufacturing business visits right in the leadup to the election. The screenshots are from Facebook, Instagram and Bluesky. This all seems very sketchy knowing city resources and funds are being spent to produce this content, while other candidates are using their own resources to run a campaign. I also noted the Popup Mayor tent was in use on Saturday in front of City Hall, which during an election shouldn’t candidates be campaigning under their own banner, not the city’s? Just seems like more for the pile why we need new leadership in this City.

Nice

Hi, I was just wondering if the very first cohort of the MLS program have gotten the chance to write the CSMLS exam? I can't seem to find results for Conestoga on the national report card website and want to have a better assessment of this program. I know it's only accredited with condition.

Thanks.

The food was so mid but it fed me for 8 months. Im getting nostalgic over the dinning haul. I miss it

Hi all, so I’m in third year BA psych, and I’ve been looking more into grad programs (mostly MA clinical psych at UW) I didn’t go into the research specialist stream for undergrad, and now I’m wondering if I totally screwed myself over. Those grad programs are incredibly competitive, and I can’t see how I’d get in without an undergrad thesis or any research experience. My GPA is also nothing special, though I plan to work really hard on it these last two years. It’s just been hard to take on more work up to this point due to having a job among other things. Should I look into adding a fifth year for the research stream? Find external research assistant positions? Rethink my options? Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I've never used excel before, should i learn it for bu283? If not then whats the best financial calculator to get for a course? Does a regular calculator work fine aswell?

Pre-health is super content heavy and a lot of information to digest, as someone who’s been out of high school for a bit. It was A LOT of info to take in however, an extra resource I’ve used is The Organic Chemistry Tutor on YouTube. 10/10 content, very simple explanations even on complex topics and uses a lot of visuals to make sense of things for you. This guy has been a life saver when I’ve had to figure out physics. Not only is it Chem but he does physics, bio and math content too. I recommend him to all of you, this guy has content on just about everything we’ve learned, at least so far.

TLDR; The Organic Chemistry Tutor has amazing content on Bio, Chem, Physics and Math. 10/10 recommend.

Is anyone down to do the BMO case comp with me? Signups end tmw and it’s taking place on October 3rd. There can be teams of 2 or 3, my team just flopped on me last second. I think this is a rlly good opportunity so if anyone’s tryna do it hmu

As a Gr 12 student from Scarborough planning out university choices, I am considering the costs of living expenses and tuition for the BBA program.
I am wondering if I have enough funds with OSAP(6k grant 10k loan), my $40k in RESP, and what the costs would be for campus dorms.

I was just wondering if anyone had any helpful study tips or study recourses that could help me in my upcoming exam

Hey
I can't make it to the actual Homecoming weekend this year, so im trying to go out mid-week instead.
Does anyone know anything happening Wednesday or Thursday night?
Thank youu

Hi!! I’m currently planning to take the MCAT and have recently started studying. I’ve been studying at the Conestoga Doon Library and thought it would be nice to have someone to study with! 😊

I’m hoping to find someone who is also studying for the MCAT, whether you’re just starting out or already well into your prep. I think having a study buddy would help with staying accountable, taking breaks, reviewing topics together, and keeping each other motivated throughout the process.We don’t necessarily have to study together the entire time, we could just meet up, do our own studying, and check in with each other.

If anyone is interested, feel free to comment or dm me! 😊🫶

I'm majoring in a BA program (I am a mature student). I dont want to go back too school so late in my life . I had an interview, everything went well. I got a email from them and said that they are not hiring me as my education was not what they were looking for. I had a diploma in the specific field that I was getting interviewed for.

I was upset at this. When scrolling through more jobs that I wanted, I realized that most jobs now were looking for at least a degree. Now, I am studying here. Third year student and kind of dreading this. having young adults around me can be a little intimidating as I just dont feel like I belong here.

Got me thinking why I really want a ba degree, given that this program is very broad and does not really prepare you for other jobs. What if the job I wanted was just not for me as it focuses so much on writing.

Also, if there is any Mature BA students here, I would so be open to a conversation. I find truly hard making friends here.

Looking for a tutor for this above course.

Or will everyone leave me behind

Is anyone here taking AN210?
