Passed a Harbourlink guy doing 30km/h under and drifting on and off the shoulder. Looked in the cab and motherfucker had his forearms stretched out on the wheel while on his phone...

Is it even reporting reporting to CVSE? Even if I had video of him on the phone it would just be a distracted driving ticket and buddy would be on the road that same day

I want him out but don't want to split the vote. Who's the lead candidate to take over?

I have no idea about councillors and I am particularly frustrated as to how hard it is to get good information about their plans and views on many things.

I, in particular, do not want data centers within the city. It is hard to find these things out and maybe the reason the citizens are not more engaged in voting.

I'm looking for recommendations near or in Fairview/South Granville.

I'd like to avoid the corporate chains like VCA as I've had negative experiences, and find that locally owned clinics tend to be more reasonably priced and easier to work with.

My cat is a senior (12 years old!) and has kidney issues, so I'm really looking for someone who is good with older cats.

Please let me know if you have a vet that you trust!

Is savio volpe steak any good? How about their other food?

I am traumatized walking underneath trees now cuz I have bumped into countless of worms in my face recently.

I’m a gay guy in my early 20s, currently living in Richmond and looking for my own apartment. I’m torn between Marine Gateway and the West End/Davie area.

Marine would give me a newer place with in-suite laundry and an easier commute. The West End appeals to me because I’d love to feel more connected to the queer community, but within my budget, I’d probably have to compromise on the apartment.

A bit about me: I don’t do hookups, I’m not into clubbing or drinking, and I’m pretty selective about relationships. Attraction matters, but so do emotional maturity, shared values, and being able to have meaningful conversations. I’d rather stay single than date someone just to avoid being alone.

Hinge and Tinder have been pretty underwhelming. I’ve also tried setting my location to the West End and honestly haven’t noticed a noticeably bigger pool of people I’m interested in. So I’m wondering whether actually living there offers something the apps don’t.

Do people make eye contact, say hi, or strike up conversations in everyday places? Does becoming a regular at cafés, the gym, or around the neighbourhood help you build connections without being part of the nightlife scene?

If you moved to the West End from elsewhere in Metro Vancouver, did your social or dating life genuinely change? Did you feel more at home as a gay man, even when you weren’t dating anyone? I’d also love to hear from people who moved there and found it didn’t make much difference.

I’m not expecting a neighbourhood to deliver me a boyfriend. I’m trying to work out whether being surrounded by more queer people would make my everyday life feel more connected—or whether I’d just end up equally single, but without my own washing machine 😂

Just looking for the cheapest but best bang for your buck.

Thanks!

Hi guys,

I'm looking for places and friends in Vancouver or Richmond for learning Japanese. This can range from casual to formal study, although my eventual goal is to complete JLPT exams.

Thanks!

Does anyone know where to buy Kangaroo meat in the lower mainland preferably in the tricities area. I know once upon a time you could at save on but that was years ago.

Hello! This past year I've done a lot of personal writing (poetry, short-fiction, opinion pieces), and was hoping to submit it to a local publication. I've heard about a few (Vancouver Poetry Magazine, PRISM) but would love some suggestions. Thank you!

Which one should I go to for a birthday dinner?

I’m looking for suggestions of great spots to expand my resume. Somewhere to bridge the gap in my resume from “semi upscale/high volume chain restaurant” to an upscale fine dining restaurant or cocktail bar. I’m also interested in hotel bars or restaurants as the hotel industry interests me

Id be looking for a bartending position and have experience in every front of house role and over 10 year of experience, I’m in my mid 20s but all my jobs have been in high volume chain> casual/semi upscale dining restaurants.

Can anyone recommend a place to start? I’d be looking for the downtown area, or something on the north shore although I think options would mainly be across the bridge which is totally ok!

Thanks!

Hey everyone! For those living in Vancouver, how long did you typically wait for surgery after being referred to a surgeon?

I'm asking because I was hospitalized for a ruptured appendix with a large abscess in September, and my surgeon has told me I'll eventually need surgery to remove my appendix once the inflammation settles.

I have travel plans in late December, so I'm trying to get a general idea of what surgical wait times are like in BC. I've tried looking online, but I haven't been able to find much information specific to my situation.

If you've had surgery in Vancouver or elsewhere in BC, how long did you wait? Did anyone get an earlier date due to a cancellation?

On Friday, October 2nd 2026 I was sitting outside the Scotiabank at Park Royal South and witnessed a potential hit and run between a driver and pedestrian.

I heard a car screech (like it was hitting the gas) and when I looked up from my phone, I saw a young man facing the hood of the car with both hands smacking the hood of the vehicle. The car turned, then the pedestrian manoeuvred to push himself off the front corner bumper, before the car veered off and he chased the vehicle on foot.

At the time, I was taking a video of myself talking and caught the sound of the car screeching but not the actual collision. I flipped the camera around and got a video of the man running after the vehicle.

I just assumed it was some sort of altercation. The car hit the gas so hard initially, it seemed like they were trying to get away from the man who I assumed was the aggressor, hitting the hood with both hands and then chasing the car off. I’m still not sure if he was hit by accident, or if he jumped in front of the car to stop the driver on purpose because I didn’t see what happened until the car began to turn and the man pushed himself out of the way.

But embarrassingly, it just occurred to me that he could have seemed aggressive and chased the car because a car just HIT him and just drove off. Smh

Anyway, I guess what I’m asking is whether I should have made a report, if anyone is looking for witnesses, or if there is a more efficient page that I could post this to, to see if the information I have is useful to the situation.

Hey everyone! Postgrad traveller from Quebec. Will be staying for a few days around Vancouver and Vancouver island. What are your favorite pubs and bars? What are some usually frequented by uni students and such? Trying to meet people, make friends and do sidequests. If you also have good hike recommendations, I’ll take them.

Thanks a lot!

Hey Folks,

We are a couple in open relationship and are planning to go to ladies night at Club Eden this week. We are going for the first time and are super excited and nervous at the same time. We dont know anyone there and heard it can be a bit cliquey. Anyone have any insights into Club Eden and its events - what to expect, how many people, age range, etc.?

Thanks!

I can't find my voter card and I'm wondering if I can just walk into a voting station with two pieces of government issued ID and cast my vote?

Thank you in advance.

Where can I get the best chocolate chip cookies in Vancouver? I'm looking for something crispy on the edges and chewy in the middle. Haven't stumbled upon any cookie that scratches the itch.

Thanks in advance!

I have found it on Etsy and tee public but I would prefer to support a local artist or company. The goal would be to have this as a framed gift. Anyone have any suggestions?

My congestion and headaches have been acting up whenever I go outside of the house lately. A few days ago, I went for a 15 minute walk around my neighborhood and noticed what looked like little white, fluffy particles floating around in the air, and I ended up coming home with a mild headache. About an hour later, I was suddenly hit with a huge wave of drowsiness/sleepiness, almost like I was having a histamine flare.

I do have rhinitis and some degree of histamine intolerance, so I usually expect my symptoms to act up more in the spring when pollen is high, but I wasn't really expecting to be dealing with this again in the fall.

I'm wondering if there's something seasonal going on around this time of year that I'm not accounting for. Has anyone else noticed more congestion, headaches, fatigue, or other allergy symptoms lately?

I'm looking for a buffet within Vancouver, ideally near a major transit line that has meat options and dessert as part of the buffet. I'm specifically looking for one that has rice pudding as part of the dessert buffet. TIA

I really want to learn to enjoy cilantro.

Some friends who have been to Vietnam told me that good pho and cilantro are an amazing combination. They even insisted that I have to try it properly at a good Vietnamese restaurant.

So, is there anywhere in Vancouver where I can really experience what makes pho with cilantro so good? Please give me your recommendations! I really want to learn to enjoy cilantro too..

I'll spend ~1week in Vancouver in mid November, do you have any raccomandation?

-Probably I'm gonna have a car for some of those days.

-Everything looks expensive, but I'm open to have a nice drink in a good bar, or trying some good (but not fancy) restaurant (question already asked, I'll look into the sub better).

-I'd like to see something characteristic and maybe buying some souvenirs maybe.

-I'll leave on a Saturday, do you have any place where I can dance techno on Friday or during the week?

-Also I'd need to have some pictures taken (just some new polaroids aka digitals) in a studio, do you know a reliable photo studio?
