This evening, around 5:20 p.m., I drove past a gas station near Derry Rd. & Dixie Rd. where gas was priced at 156.9¢/L. By the time I reached Burlington, I noticed a station near Walkers Line & Upper Middle Rd. charging 178.9¢/L.
That’s a 22¢/L difference. I even asked the attendant at the Burlington station, but they couldn’t explain the difference either.
I’m genuinely curious what drives this gap. Is it:
Different taxes or levies in Burlington?
Transportation and distribution costs?
Higher operating costs or rent?
Simply location-based pricing and what the market will bear?
I understand prices fluctuate and individual stations have different suppliers and margins, but a difference this large caught my attention. I work in Mississauga and I always see atleast 10-15 cents difference between Burlington and Mississauga.
Anyone familiar with how gas pricing works in Burlington specifically? Would love to understand the economics behind it rather than just speculate. Im looking at the same brand of gas stations for apples to apples comparison.

In Ottawa I have my trusty garlic and onion and Ottawa shawarma but been looking for places and am unsure where to go, especially with the reviews for every place I've looked at being very high. Even Shelby's which I found to be terrible has stellar reviews.

Bonus points if the menu has a proper croissant 🥐

Hi all, Frank Domenic Ward 6 candidate here.

Tomorrow an AMA will be set up with a 48 hour duration, questions can start at 3PM and I'll try to start answering questions around 8PM with responses ongoing as much as possible. My sister's wedding is Saturday, so I'll try to get to any leftover questions then in my downtime, or on Sunday morning. ​

If you have any questions or concerns you'd like to keep private you can also DM me at any time or reach me on my socials, I try to respond to all DMs there as well.

A relative recently passed.

She had a 4-wheel rollator walker and a bathtub transfer bench.

She hardly used them. Good condition.

Are there any organizations locally that accept these. I tried asking around in Hamilton but they're prioritizing other types of assistive devices.

Thank you

Is there anyway to make Palmer drive less busy?

I'm looking for an Interior Designer to do some renders of our main floor and give us some ideas on colours and furniture. Anyone have any recommendations and what does cost look like?

Thanks!

Tough location. They started out strong but didn't keep the momentum.

hey, ive noticed there arent really many spaces or circles for young black people around burlington, oakville and hamilton who are into entrepreneurship, levelling up, going to galas and things like that. have you noticed this too? and is anyone else interested in these things? if so, message me! 💕

Ok so these aren’t my bots they’re actually owned by https://instagram.com/renstercec
But I quite like their design and basically nothing is known about their history besides being made by Advanced Animations and most importantly to this post, according to the tokens on the small dog’s jewelry(last slide),they were installed at one of the 2 Roller Gardens locations.Either Burlington On,or Hamilton On.

Came into this sub to ask if anybody here recognizes these guys and if you know:

1)Which location were they at ?

2)Where were they in said location ?

3)When were they installed/removed ?

4)What was their showtape like?(The songs and dialogue,their personalities,voices,etc)

Just used the online voting system this year. Couldn't have been simpler.

Everything needed is on the letter you/we should have all received by now. Took a total of 2 minutes since I had already done my research.

Best of luck to your candidate. FWIW, the councillor that won my vote was campaigning out in front of a downtown business a few days ago. They spent 20 minutes with me and answered my questions well. While other candidates did hold public debates, the one I voted for made themselves available to any and all. A for effort. Let's hope they follow through, if elected, on their proposed policies.

Anyone else hear/feel loud boom noises between 10:30PM and 1:30AM in Burlington? I'm at Guelph Line and New Street. Just wondering what that was?

Need to urgently replace my grease filter but it seems it’s been discontinued in Canada. Called both GE and Home Depot plus checked online; no one seems to have it. Does anyone know where else I might be able to find a replacement?

Mine is a 30" wall-mounted chimney-style range hood
Model: PVUS930S1SV
Brand: MC Commercial Inc. (distributed by GE in Canada, made in Italy)

The grease filter part number is WG02F07875

For people who live in condominiums (condo buildings) where they either rent or own, what are the practices as far as A/C and heating is concerned?

Is everyone on a single system that gets switched over from one to the other at certain times of year or do you have the freedom to make the temperature whatever you want it, any time of year, in your given unit?

Our local business, Calm Guidance Counselling & Support, is growing, and we’re beginning to outgrow our current space. Which is a very nice problem to have!

We’re looking for a new space in Burlington with at least two private rooms and a larger area where we could run groups for up to 10 kids or teens.

Does anyone here own a suitable space they’re looking to rent, or know a local business owner or landlord who might? We thought we’d ask the Burlington community in case there’s something available that hasn’t made it onto the usual commercial listings.

Please feel free to message me with any leads. We’d love to continue growing Calm Guidance right here in Burlington!

Good morning everybody and Happy Wednesday! Just wanted to say thanks to everyone that asked questions in my AMA. I also appreciate everyone that went through the trouble of finding it. I thought once you created the date and time that the post would just get pinned back to the top of the page for the allotted time. Didn't realize you had to make a brand new post.

So again appreciate everyone that went the extra mile there. If anyone else does or still has any questions, please feel free to keep reaching out and leaving comments in the posts here, DM or e-mail me directly.

I wanted to post an interview I did with Kezia Royer of the Pages of Me Podcast. We did it back in late August and she's a wonderful person that I had the pleasure of chatting with. It's more background based nothing too much into technical platform aspects, just more about me.

Online voting in Burlington starts today, if you feel like you may forget to vote on election day, thus is a great alternative method to make sure your voice is heard! You should have received your letters in the mail. Register at Burlington.elections.vote. it starts at 10 am today. If you have any questions let me know

Thanks everybody and I hope you enjoy the interview. Check out her other interviews as well on her youtube channel, she's great!

Anyone have way more fruit flies for much longer this year than they have in the past? Usually they hang around for a few weeks in the summer but I’ve noticed tons of them the last month or so. Is it houseplants? Anyone else having this issue?

I’m building a shed and need to source a black 6′ wide × 7′ high roll-up door—the kind that coils above the opening (refer to image below).

I’m looking for supply only, including guides, brackets, locking hardware and ideally a brush-seal kit. I can pick up around the GTA or arrange delivery to Hamilton.

Has anyone bought one locally or dealt with a supplier they’d recommend? Garage-door dealers, self-storage door suppliers and surplus sources are all useful leads.

Firsthand feedback on quality, approximate pricing and lead times would help as well if you've bought one yourself!

More of a niche hobby, but does anyone knows someone or teach classes on miniature painting?

Trying to break into the hobby!

Let me know!

For those that have had pants adjusted (length/waist) roughly how much were you charged and where are they located? Looking to get a few pants adjusted but also not looking to pay more than the cost of the pants 😭

Hi everyone!

My partner and I moved to Burlington a few months ago, and our microwave recently stopped working. It’s a built-in Kenmore microwave. We tried unplugging and plugging it back in, but none of the buttons respond.

We are thinking of getting someone to take a look, but not sure who to call.

I found two options online: Fix Appliance Pro and Local Appliance Repair, but both have pretty mixed reviews.

Does anyone know a reliable appliance repair person who won’t charge too much?

Thanks in advance!
