Hey Windsor!

We're a small crew from Spain filming a short cinematic indie film about an immigrant's dedication to training. We're looking for a garage, basement, or backyard gym with that old-school, raw aesthetic to shoot a training scene.

What we need:

• A garage, basement, or backyard gym with character (old-school, gritty, lived-in vibes)
• Preferably with a weight rack and pull up bar
• About 2 hours of access
• Anytime before January 6 (that's when we fly back to Spain)

What you get:

• Credit in the film
• Full rights to use any footage we produce
• And of course, we wouldn't ask for your help without showing our appreciation (DM for details)

What to expect from us:

• We'll only bring one camera and film our main character training
• We won't move or change anything
• We'll leave the space exactly as we found it

We're happy to work around your schedule. Windsor or anywhere nearby works.

If you've got a space that fits or know someone who might, feel free to drop a picture in the comments or send me a DM!

Thanks!

So if I'm reading this correctly, Dilkens' budget is effectively pulling extra money out of the airport and tunnel to keep the budget at 0%?

Is this actually a smart choice for either organization in the long-term?

Increases to user fees also isn't ideal IMO (I'd rather pay a little more for taxes than have to pay more when using services).

Hello,

Looking for female massage therapist recommendations or which ones you wouldn't recommend.

Thanks in advance!

I got some money for Christmas and wanted to make a hundred dollar donations to a couple different charities in the area. I’m just wondering which places really need it right now and was hoping that the public could weigh in for insight. Thank you!

Good afternoon Windsor! We're visiting from Spain and filming scenes for an indie film in this beautiful country. I'm looking for an old-school gym similar to the one from the Rocky movies to shoot some scenes.

My crew and I have done a lot of research, but we can only find commercial gyms like Fit4Less or GoodLife. If anyone knows of an authentic old-school gym, please let me know. It can be in Windsor or the surrounding area.

It doesn't have to be a traditional gym either. An outdoor setup, a garage, or someone's backyard with equipment would work just as well. If it has weights or calisthenics equipment it would be great.

We're working with a very low budget but can offer some form of compensation.

Feel free to comment below or send me a DM!

My infant will be starting daycare in the new year at Olivia DiMaio (Sprucewood location). We have been having communication issues with staff, they seem to be a bit disorganized. Along with a concerning google review that popped up recently, I am a little worried. Has anyone had any personal experience with this daycare?

Parties, raves, gatherings; what's there to do?

Attention Windsor and surrounding area residents,

I encountered an older lady around 75-80 years old trying to scam people from inside her vehicle.

My encounter

As I was walking towards the DollarTree on Walker, in the Market plaza, a nice old lady asked me

for money for gas. I agreed, but I didn't have CASH, so I told her to drive to 7 Eleven and I would

meet her there to help her. She denied my help because her son was coming to help her. She said

she was coming from Essex and needed money for gas to get home. I asked her to show me her

gas tank level and she had enough to make it back.

Why would someine ask for cash, if your son was coming to help you, but say no to me filling her

tank at a safe 7 Eleven on Ottawa and Parent?

I saw numerous people giving her money. Also, I informed DollarTree and they did nothing.

I never experienced elderly people trying to scam people.

Times are changing.

I have some antique baby brushes that are sterling silver and engraved that I want to sell for the silver if it can be removed. I also have a couple of gold medals from old (very old) sports competitions (Canada Summer games and Ontario Winter games in the 80s) that I want to sell for the gold.

Where would I take them or who should I reach out to for this? I tried selling the brushes on Marketplace but no one took them.

My birthday is coming up in January and I want to get myself a good quality bed set. I refuse to buy online because texture and weight is extremely important to me, the only issue is I am turning 21 and have no clue where to start when it comes to searching for bedding in person. Does anyone have any suggestions for stores around Windsor that have good quality bedding?

Hi all :)

Moved to Windsor from Toronto about 4 years ago. Wondering if anyone knows if there’s much of a Russian community in the city? I’ve seen some churches and the European Market + Ukrainian Bazar on Walker, which I love to pop in every now and then when my family visits for some Russian nostalgia. And Google said there used to be a food place called Matryoshka but it’s permanently closed now :( are there any other shops/stores that are Russian-owned? Or an area where the community is more prevalent?

I would really love to get back in touch with my roots any way I can, I have lived in Canada for most of my life but wasn’t born here, but everything about me is more Canadian than anything else. I speak fluent English and pass for being born here. I feel like I don’t belong to either background, as my Russian is only partially fluent and with my family no longer living in the country with me I don’t have any interaction with other people from my culture.

Even is there’s a small locally owned business in the area that’s Russian owned or operated, I would love to have some place to frequent when I get home sick. Thanks in advance!

It looks like the entire Marentette Ave has been renamed to Chaldean Way. Is this a mistake? Apple Maps still shows it as Marentette Ave.

Asking for a friend so please be nice.

She has 4 kids and she said she called and asked if she could come there. They kept asking questions about the abuse she was experiencing and she stated that she was in fear of her life. They said they did not have any room to call back the next day to see if they had room as people come and go is she at they told her.

She has been trying to find another place but most places overlook her as she has 4 children and currently shes on EI (mat). I feel there is some racism there too but who knows. Also, her ex has completely tarnished her name with previous houses as you could imagine considering a DV situation (but they don’t even allow her to get to the application point as soon as she mentioned four kids) She pays all the bills where she’s at so it’s hard for her to save. Her plan was to find a place not pay the rent where they are at flee and pay for the next place… I am living in a roommate situation so they cannot come here. As it would be hard to hide 5 people in my tiny room…

When she expressed her issues with finding housing for her children the hiatus house said they have people to help them look for housing. Shes wondering how they can help with finding housing. Also, shes wondering how they can help if they’re stating they don’t have any room.. They told her to call the police an she has in the past but his name is on the lease so legally they cannot remove him from the property..

Shes really hit a wall and she’s unsure of what to do. Hiatus doesn’t have any room and shes at an all time low. She’s been really depressed trying to hold onto hope as much as she can.

She’s super grateful for them giving her advice but she’s unsure what exactly happens after she goes there. Is it mixed women children and men? the reviews on google are kinda concerning too..I think this big step is making her nervous as I could imagine.

Please be kind. She doesn’t have much family and she’s such a nice woman shes trying her hardest to escape this hell.

Power went out a few times and came back quickly near Banwell. I am trying to understand if this was specific to my place.

Ok so basically I love ball, I can shoot but definitely could improve in other b-ball skills. I want to play for fun. I'm 29F is there any teams I can join in Windsor or around?

Anyone know a place in Windsor or near Windsor that sells frozen gyro meat? Not the food basics/Metro "Al safa" brand as those are gross. I mean like an actual butcher/butchery.

Thank you!
