I hope they find the child, but i nearly had a heart attack from that emergency alarm going off 😫

The overall vibe and being close to mountain biking + skiing looks epic, but I'm wondering if the daily commute by car is worth it. A little flexible on the commute time, but returning will definitely be around 4 to 5PM.

I saw this post from 4 years ago with very relevant information on the topic. Is it still up to date? Did the traffic get a lot worst in the recent years? How long does it usually take? Thanks!

Spend $20 at Kim’s Cafe and bring a receipt to Osaka Supermarket and get a $10 discount on purchases over $20.

I was in a bad bike crash on this bike path and it is unsafe, too many fast cyclists overtaking when it is not safe to do so and I am reverting to driving downtown.

I want to know if this is a common problem.

I think this is necessary to prevent people from parking there and going shopping in Lonsdale instead.

Hiya, I started a little run club for Friday nights (6pm) figured I’d share in case anyone’s into that and/or feeling lonely and wanting to get out there (especially because the weather is nicer now).

This is meant to be low pressure. You don’t have to be the fastest or the fittest, and it’s definitely not about pushing yourself extra hard. The focus is more on just getting out there, moving your body, and ending the week on a good note.

I’m not an expert or anything, just a pal trying to build a bit of community. I’ve found running a lot more enjoyable when it feels chill and social, and I figured maybe other people are looking for that too.

Also, this is a bit out of my comfort zone to post and not something I ever thought I’d do, but after trying to keep up with ultra fast people and absolutely wrecking my feet… here we are.

We’ll probably do routes that're something around 3k to 5k-ish, keeping it relatively easy. Big emphasis on not leaving anyone behind, so if someone needs walking breaks, I'm 100% there.

Eventually, it’d be nice to weave in little things that are helpful or kind for the community. Whether that’s making/putting kind notes on a strangers car or making native plant seed bombs. I'm open to ideas. It would be nice for it to be more than just a run club.

Anyway, If you’re looking for something like that, then here ya go!

Sorry if you don’t like filling these things out… but the internet can be a weird place.

I'll be visiting your fine city this summer and looking to book my home base hotel in North Vancouver due to it being more affordable than downtown.

Out of curiosity, I checked how much an Uber would cost to get from the airport to the hotel and right now it's $115!. For context, I checked at 6am PST Sunday morning. Is this normal? I thought it would be half that.

Looking for recommendations for a good renovation company/contractor in the north Vancouver area that does kitchens!

We’re planning a kitchen renovation in a smaller space, detached home and are hoping to improve functionality/storage, potentially open up a small wall, and modernize the overall look without going super luxury/high-end.

Would love to hear about companies people had good experiences with (or ones to avoid 👀). Bonus if they’re transparent with pricing and good at working within a realistic budget. Thanks!

Pretty vile and racist behaviour on the part of the customer. Does anyone know or recognize her?

Meanwhile, I think Kim’s Cafe could use some kindness and support if you’re in the area (across from the police on 14th).

Today is only day 1 but I’m noticing 3 neighbours today power washing and I passed several homes on my run watering lawns with sprinklers.

Let’s all update ourselves on what we should be doing to conserve and be good neighbours.
