So I just saw this on FB, and my neighbours and I have experienced the exact same and can validate. Some candidates are literally coming onto private homeowner property, without permission, and installing signs in hopes they'll stay up to artificially inflate their perceived support base. Michael leaves this cringey letter urging homeowners to "welcome it", and people have reported a candidate in Ward 1 doing the same (I have not seen the Ward 1 behaviour myself so I will not name the candidate). This is outrageous, is this how they think an election will be won?? Not to mention nobody in my friend group has ever seen Michael himself out, it's only ever been his parents canvassing, installing (and likely paying for) this huge volume of signs. If this is how these candidates are acting during the election cycle I can't imagine how they'd conduct themselves in office. Thoughts?

Have any of you seen their google reviews lately? Seems every day for the past years, an endless stream of extremely pleased tenants are leaving glowing 5 star reviews. More collective reviews than they have actual tenants. Padding their google maps reviews with endless fake 5 star reviews to bury the real truth. Awful buildings. Arrogant superintendents. Super noisy duplexes if you live below others. Those custom built duplexes scattered around Guelph and Fergus, all cookie cutters, are equal to living inside a can of marbles. They shuffle you around and lie about deficiencies. But the hundreds of fake 5 star reviews, several times a day sometimes, wow. Isn't it easier to fix a problem instead of paying a company to pad your reviews?

Curious to hear what people think about Ryan Meunier. I’ve seen a lot opinions/comparisons on Leanne Caron and Ken Yee Chew, but not much about Meunier? His platform seems good and I thought he communicated his priorities well and was honest about what he didn’t know in the debates. I’m not well-versed in politics so maybe I’m missing something and would like to be informed before voting.. thanks!

Hi everyone, I’m looking for a higher end mani/pedi recommendation, spa, or something similar as a surprise for my wife’s birthday. I know literally nothing about what is good in the area so any advice is appreciated!

Loving this autumn weather.

I am planning to take GO Train towards the Toronto and new to this. Anyone has any idea about free parking lot at Guelph GO? Where can i park my car?

Thank you for your time and help in advance.

Anyone else have no internet access this morning?
I’m with Rogers in the grange hill area and it seems to have stopped working around 9:20am

Rogers site says it’s expected back by 1 but what the heck why is it so unreliable always. Grrrrr.

I’ll print deck lists, precon lists, custom cards and what ever else. I have a multitude of foils patters. Dm for info.

with the election next monday i realized this weekend i couldn't name half the people running in my ward and almost none of them have made it to my door (which is sort of fair as it's a lot of doors lol)

i spent some time this weekend going through their campaign websites and ended up building a small free tool to make it easier for someone who isn't 3 glasses of wine in as i was on Sunday when building this. you can access it here at wheretheystand.ca

pick guelph, then mayor or your ward and tap a topic. housing comes up in every single ward, plus things like roads, taxes, safety and homelessness depending on the race. it then shows what every candidate in that race wrote about it, in their own words, with a link to the page.

it does use AI (sorry about that - i know how passionate Guelph is about our water, remember Nestle?), but only uses it minimally pull the quotes together. and only from the candidates' own websites. and every quote links back to the source. it can still get things wrong, so click through. every candidate shows up, in a random order each time. i've not ranked anyone, nor am recommending any candidate. and for the handful with no website, it says so and gives you their email/phone from the city's official list. i am not affiliated with any candidate or party, and i'm paying for it myself lol

btw if you're not sure which ward you're in, there's a "find your ward" link right on the ward screen!

would love it if you shared it with friends and family, especially anyone who won't sit and read 49 websites. and if you're a candidate and something is off there's a "report a mistake" link at the bottom 🙏

Can anyone give a list of the most probable members of the Guelph Conservative slate?

Any chance we already have a map of where bike racks are located around the city? I'm getting more into using my bike for errands, but it's hard to plan a grocery run if I don't know if/where there are bike racks nearby.

Glad we have bike infrastructure around Guelph. Always up for more

Hey everyone, I've started the Guelph Monopoly Club to bring together people in Guelph who enjoy Monopoly and want to meet other local players!

We've already hosted a couple of game nights, and it's been a great opportunity to get together, have some fun, and try different versions of the game. We have a variety of editions to play, including regular Monopoly, Guelph-Opoly (That's a thing yes!), Monopoly Mega, Monopoly Deluxe, and Monopoly Deal for those who prefer a quicker card game. We also have much more versions too!

And yes, I know what some of you might be thinking: "Monopoly? Isn't that the game that takes 6 hours and ruins friendships?" Don't worry, our games typically run about 1.5 to 2 hours, and playing in person is a lot more fun than you might expect.

We usually meet at 3 PM on Saturdays at the Roundtable Board game cafe downtown

Interested in joining us? Leave a comment or send me a Reddit message, and I'll share the WhatsApp group link with you.

Looking forward to meeting some fellow Monopoly fans in Guelph!

Hi there so I'm heavily considering dressing as a maid/cat maid for halloween to school.. anyone know where I could potentially get a cheap fit? thanks in advance lol

They started to renovate the parking garage about a month ago, and they just keep taping off every single level. I’ve only ever seen construction workers jack hammering 2 ft.² of cement at a time. Because they have put stoplights up before transferring to each level, It can take up to five minutes to get to the top part where it connects to the main mall and you have no other choice than to go there because every level before is blocked off. it’s very fucking annoying because I’m always in a rush in the mornings even if I get there early, it’s just an extra thing to wait for. What are they even doing?

Random ahh post but does anyone know where I can get white cargo pants before Halloween? It’s for my costume 😭

1st thing: this place is beautiful!!
2nd: is anyone here Brazilian? Me and my GF (both 23y) would like to know some more Brazilians in town! Especially to watch results of the elections 🫪
And 3rd, the classic question in this subreddit: what to do around? Loving the outdoor activities (hiking to a beautiful spot so we can smoke weed) but since the winter is coming would like to know what else can be done around here.

Fell free to ask questions!

I’m looking for side gigs and would like to pose for any life art figure sessions. Most of the stuff I found is outdated. The university has some right? I’m ok with it being nude

Does anyone know the best place to find opportunities?

Lock your doors people! Nightmare fuel
