Now that the colder weather is approaching.. where's a good/affordable place to get a winter hat gloves etc for a baby and an adult? Preferably not costing like an arm and leg each

I’ve lived here my entire life and never knew he died on the QEW in st Catharine’s, supposedly near lake st. Is this common knowledge for others? Why’s there no memorial sign or anything for such a big Canadian name?

This has me flabbergasted

Idk if this is allowed but they have a ton of rlly good deals cuz they r doing construction

My band is taking on the entire Can't Buy a Thrill album on Halloween at Warehouse Concert Hall (Geneva St, St Catharines) would be great to see you 😊

Has anyone else had Bell internet-phone-cable out for the last three weeks in west St. Catharines? They say replacing lines but you’d think they’d let the customer know it would be out this long. It’s ridiculous! We are losing business because nobody can call.

Please lmk if anyone sees this little guy. Slipped out of his harness at kinsmen park at around 1:00 pm on October 10th, 2026.

Have tried everything, staying late where he went missing, posters, flyers, door to door, facebook groups, leaving clothing outside, SPCA etc.

His microchip# is: 941000030459802

Hi everyone, I'm planning a big life change moving from Alberta to Ontario and wondering what are everyone's thoughts on living in St. Catharines? I'd be moving to a small apartment in downtown area, looking for honest opinions or tips or anything like that around the safety, neighbors, the community, etc.

I was also thinking about Niagara Falls too but debating on which would be better

Hi!

Me and my partner have been playing tennis (wrong time of the year to start, I know!) and are looking for the best quality public courts in the city.

The tennis courts closest to us are at Joe Kushner Park and they’re basically just painted black and white asphalt, which isn’t really ideal especially for bumps & scrapes. Not to mention the nets there are in pretty horrendous shape (frayed wires causing them to droop or not even be standing at all).

Do any tennis players in the city have a recommendation for what public courts they enjoy most? Are all the public courts in the city just straight up uneven blacktop, or are there other options?

(Sidenote: I know the Tennis Club at 7 Park Ave has great courts, but we’re not currently looking to pay membership fees for what is a pretty casual hobby of ours.)

Thanks!

Both of my hands are injured so I'm looking for a nail salon that can help me remove gel nail polish and trim my nails for me. I'm not looking to get new polish or even a full manicure, just want my nails short and plain. I need a technician that will be gentle with my injuries. Any recommendations are greatly appreciated!

Hopefully this is the right place for this post.

As the title suggests I'm looking to sell off some of my cards. I'm really trying to determine my best option of local shop to go with. I know of Mecha games, Pheonix Rising and Sketchbook comics, but I don't know if all of them buy pokemon cards or if they buy at a decent percentage.

I'm really looking to get into Magic The Gathering and figured since I have some high value cards I could easily get myself going in MTG if I had enough to splurge.

Any help would be appreciated and thank you in advance!

Hey, I’m looking to get my whole forearm tattooed as a memorial tat for my late father. Just black ink. Some pine trees maybe, a map, a compass, stuff like that (yeah I know, basic bitch white guy things). Looking for some artists willing to work with me on design! Thanks!

Does any know anyone who can help us with the wiring for our furnace? We moved in ans the furnace isn't hooked up properly. Someone affordable hopefully:(

Saw there was a 10c/litre deal at Esso/Circle K and it looks like nearby gas stations have followed suit.

Bit of a frenzy out here. Already saw an argument!

Are there any mechanics in the area that don’t charge a diagnostic fee?

First all the lies about GM, and now cheating.

I don't support Siscoe, why are my tax dollars going towards his cheating. Some example he sets.

This is in relation to the off duty Niagara police officer who was impaired and fled officers before crashing into a vehicle.

Said victim declined to provide any information to the SIU and as a result the subject officer would not be subject to any related charges beyond the ones at the scene.

**CORRECTION: Article does appear to read that the OFFICER is the injured party in this circumstance. SIU was investigating whether the actions of police in the context of the pursuit resulted in the officers broken nose. But since he’s uncooperative, they have nothing to go on. Sorry for confusion.

Has anyone has seen the show 'Below' on Netflix and seen that Labatt Blue hat?

My gf stated that her grandpa used to wear that same hat and would love to find one to bring up to the hunting camp in his memory. If anyone has one laying around, or knows where to get one, please DM me.
