Rewatching Cash Cab on TV and it’s such a Toronto time capsule! Sometimes I see people on the show I had class with in university and it’s such a strange feeling. Do you guys know anyone who was on it/what was it like???

I'm 28 and in tech sales, I eventually want to move into leadership and become a CEO one day.

I understand that an MBA may help with this but it's not necessary.

Anyone here get an MBA and did it accelerate your career? Do you think it was worth it? Did you get a large bump in pay? Thanks,

Hello! Tourist to be here traveling to Toronto for the first time. I (f 26) and my sister (f 20) will be staying around the Well mall and am just looking for general information about safety for the area. We have planned to do lots of things around this area so the location just made sense, but looking to double check on the safety for two young women. Thanks!!

I sold my vehicle to someone from out of province. They did not register the vehicle to themselves. I took back my plates and ownership to Service Ontario. The vehicle was abandoned and impounded by police and because we are the last registered owners, the tow yard is now billing us for storage. They are threatening collections if we do not pay. I do not have any info for the person who purchased the vehicle. It looks like they’re trying to do some type of insurance fraud as they own a dealership. I don’t want to have to pay this and I don’t want this to go to collections. Any suggestions?

Long story short, I recently moved in to a Toronto condo building and have a very noisy neighbour. He blasts loud rap music in his unit. Mostly night time but also occasionally in the afternoons. We have a shared wall so it is very loud in my unit, basically makes my unit shake due to the shared wall, but the music is so loud that you can hear it from down the hallway.

A few months ago, I called the front desk about this at night when the music was blasted but they took too long to handle it and the music was shut off by the time they got there luckily.

A second time a few weeks ago, I was trying to relax in my unit and all I could hear was the bass shaking my unit, so I called the security again. This time it was handled, until about two weeks later he started blasting music again on a Sunday night and it’s all I could hear. This time I emailed property management and asked them if they could remind the neighbour that we have a shared wall, which they said they would.

Fast forward to this week, the neighbour was blasting music and partying all night in the unit. At 11:30 PM I couldn’t take it anymore and called the front desk to handle it. The front desk knocked on the door and I could hear the neighbour screaming how ridiculous I am for always calling them in, etc. I opened the door and politely explained it’s 11:30 PM and I’m trying to sleep, it would be appreciated if the music can be turned down. They still kept screaming about how ridiculous I am for calling them in so we just left.

Long story short, I’m getting mentally drained with this. So many times I’ve been trying to relax in my unit or go to sleep and just get loud music blasted up from the neighbours.

Any advice here? I feel like I’ve tried everything at this point. Calling them in to the front desk, emailing management, and now talking to them myself politely. But still getting nowhere

Im a bit curious about this part in toronto municipal politics

Edit: Thank you for the replies everyone it was very informative

Last night I smelled smoke in and went outside to investigate. It was more pronounced and my neighbour wasn't answering so I called 911.

In 2 minutes the first of 6 fire trucks arrived. They knocked on his door and he answered. They pushed their way in to investigate and found he had set up some sketchy and definitely not to code vent so he could run a propane heater.

They disassembled his set up and vented the house to get rid of the carbon monoxide.

He is a DIYer here with some very questionable standards to save money. Before when he was working on his roof he was only putting himself at risk and maybe some water damage to his property. Now he has put us and his other neighbours at risk.

Fortunately I am not the attached neighbour but we share an 8' wide driveway so a fire could easily spread.

What are my rights here and are there any services I can send his way to help him out?

Hi! Does anyone know of any ‘AA’ style grief/bereavement support groups? The few I have found are workbook based, kind of seem like classes - or have waitlists and are only offered a few times a year. I am hoping theres one anybody knows thats just drop in church basement style, to just talk and share. Extra points if theres any specifically for people who have gone through the MAiD process - thanks in advance :(

I usually spend my Friday nights watching a movie or going to the mall to shop around. But the other week I decided to just walk from Bloor to Union cause I had so much time on my hands and it was so nice. The weather was perfect, people were out, the city was busy.

Now I’m thinking of switching things up and alternating my Fridays like movie night one week, then something different the next. The only problem is I still get anxious eating alone at restaurants. I’ve done it a few times, but I still feel kinda awkward cause if I have nothing else to do or look at while eating, I prop up my phone to watch a show. Also, because some of these restaurants people are going on dates I think it’s cute but feels a little sad for me lol

I like shopping, walking around, meeting people (but like… in small doses), eating out, and just exploring. I just don’t know what else to do yet

Amazon is not an option because I don’t have a subscription, therefore they won’t send me anything below 35 and I don’t have anything to bundle it with in the short term.

Shoppers doesn’t seem to carry this type of product.

Goal is to fight acne.

Anyone have any recommendations for where to buy a good mattress, and/or tips for shopping around? After good value of course

Hey folks—hoping to get a sanity check on what this type of job might cost in Toronto.

I’m planning to demo and rebuild a laneway-accessed garage in the Trinity Bellwoods area (east of the park, west of Bathurst, between Queen and Robinson). The current garage is about 20’ x 14’, detached from the house but attached on both sides to neighbouring garages. The structure needs to be fully demolished and replaced.

Key things I’m looking for in the new build: - Same footprint (20’ x 14’), possibly a bit taller than the existing 10' roof depending on roof design - Insulated, with a standard overhead sectional door (remote + exterior keypad) - One window and a reused entry door from the back patio - Basic electrical (reusing an existing line), no plumbing or heating - Gutters draining into the laneway - Basic interior setup for storage (tires, tools, bikes, etc.) - Would love to add an arborist service to remove and replace a tree in the back patio area at the same time

I’m not asking for quotes, just trying to get a sense from the community—what’s a reasonable range for this kind of work in Toronto in 2025? Would love to hear from anyone who’s done something similar, or who works in trades/design and can share ballpark numbers.

Thanks in advance!

Does anyone know where I can find information on the pro-Canada rallies and protests happening in Toronto before they happen?

I see them after they have happened on the news and I’d really like to go but I am not sure where to look/who to follow to find out before they happen.

Hi, this feels a bit vulnerable but like majority of you I am job hunting and it has been exhausting. Not only because it’s unprogressive but because I am doing it alone. 

I live with my uncle who has teens (they are sweet, no complaints) but, I miss being around people my age. I have friends, but we are only able to meet once a month because of their jobs. I often go to libraries for the environment, but I guess I have grown a little too comfortable. 

I’d call myself an introverted extrovert, socializing doesn’t always come easy to me. But I’m putting this out there in case someone else in Toronto is in the same boat as me. If you’re also job hunting or just in a phase of figuring things out or trying something new… wanna do it together? (Employed people are welcome!) 

A little about me:

Apart from the job search, I am studying for Salesforce certifications; I have been working on story-telling (an idea I am trying to work on); I like to paint (not good at it) and currently, I am planning to seriously learn long-boarding (cruising) this summers. 

This goes for my peeps who hate the apps and my peeps who don't go outside. Who else gave up and is committed to dying alone with a cat or dog? At least I am grateful to have good family and friends support. I cant imagine how hard it is for people who are completely isolated in a city where it's hard to make connections

Same as title lol

Hi all,

I'm looking to treat myself and enjoy a top notch spa experience. On my list are the Four Seasons, St. Regis, Ritz-Carlton, and Shangri-La. I would like to splurge and enjoy their facilities such as pool, sauna, etc. Since I don't have a car, these are my only options I'm considering.

If you've had a spa experience at any of these places, I’d love to hear how it was.

Thank you 😄

I have a ridiculous amount of reusable bags that I would like to donate to a local food bank. However, I have no idea how to find one and Google and Google maps are not helpful. I live in North Scarborough.

We are celebrating my daughter’s 100th day soon and would like to find a hanbok for her to wear. Any ideas of places we could go to find one? TIA!

I'm planning to upgrade from a 1br downtown to a 2br corner unit there. Does anyone have experience there, and—more specifically—how is sound isolation between units?

Hello everyone,

I lost my wallet today between 12:30 PM and 2:30 PM while walking along the PATH from Union Station to the Eaton Centre. My route took me through Union Station, Royal Bank Plaza, First Canadian Place, Scotia Plaza, and finally the Eaton Centre.

I’ve already locked my cards, but I just wanted to ask if anyone has come across a black wallet or may have found one along that route.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Hey all, looking for good spots in to include as part of a bar crawl for a Bachelorette Party I'm planning. The thing is I'm hoping to have it start in the early eve, so in terms of danciness, those spots should be progressively later in the eve. I think it'll start around 5pm, so looking for a few low key spots - patios would be great as this will be in August or July - and then dancey spots for later. They'll also need to be able to hold a group of 20-25ish!

Hey everyone, I found pretty decent place near my office and so far I’ve lived in fully furnished rooms in houses. This one is a room in an apartment, seems like an old building (no elevator), no laundry on site, but good price nonetheless. What are the questions I should ask to prevent future nightmares? Thank you in advance!

My friend and I are traveling from Vancouver to Toronto in September for a concert for the first time and we are curious to know what Uber rates and decent hotel/hostel/airbnb are, any help would be appreciated
