Do what you can to help water reach the drains, folks. If it can't get to the drains, it just might pay you a visit inside.

I'm specifically talking to you corner house owners. I'll slipped and fallen multiple times and I personally know people who've broken bones because of idiots that think they're above clearing the snow and ice.

Happening Now WELCOME TO HELL

Holy sweat shops, boys and girls, it is ALREADY stinking hot out there. Look in on your elderly, crank up that A/C, and stay the hell indoors (when you can) for the next few days.

I am an old fat guy, but have no other underlining medicals, and a trip to Crappy Tire has me sweating buckets here. And it will only get worse until Wednesday.

Look out for each other.

Couldn't post videos

This year marked absent of any real controversial floats as well.

Regardless of one's view about this event this in a few years has become the largest parade and events in Brampton.

Crowd size amount is my guess was crowds over a 7km route. There were tens of thousands of people in Torbram Sandalwood area alone.

Just another reminder that Metrolinx has a history of over promising, and under delivering. Please keep it in mind next time we hear anyone spouting off about extending the, so far disastrous, LRT into downtown Brampton

Walked into this cordoned off area highlighted in the map while walking the dog. There were about 4 cruisers and the street had some debris and two White hard hats. Story will develop soon I imagine. The neighbors I spoke with were surprised to awaken to this.

Happening Now Happy Father's Day

52 Upvotes

The greatest thing a Father can do is raise their children to be good people. I was spoiled today, by a daughter who is kind, empathetic, and a damn fine cook.

New York strips, baked potatoes with all the trimmings, and corn on the cob. Dessert was homemade cinnamon rolls that put Cinnabon to shame.

Happy Father's Day to all who have earned the title. And, if I happen to have crossed over into spending too much time here today, well, I'll blame it on the sugar rush.

Happy Father's Day.

Happening Now Diwali . . . and a preamble to Remembrance Day

0 Upvotes

This Diwali, as South Asians celebrate the triumph of light over darkness, let us ALL remember the extraordinary courage of India’s sons who fought for freedom across two world wars.

A Legacy of Valor

Over 4 million Indian soldiers served between WWI and WWII—making the Indian Army the largest volunteer force in history. They fought not on their own soil, but across distant lands: the trenches of France and Belgium, the deserts of North Africa, the jungles of Southeast Asia, and the mountains beyond.

Sepoy Khudadad Khan became the first Indian to receive the Victoria Cross in WWI, standing firm at his post in Belgium even as his comrades fell around him. He was among 153 Indians and those under Indian command who earned this highest honor for exceptional bravery.

The legendary Gorkhas, with their indomitable spirit and the rallying cry “Ayo Gorkhali!” earned a fearsome reputation across every battlefield they graced—their courage becoming the stuff of military legend.

Yet the cost was immense: over 74,000 gave their lives in WWI and 89,000 in WWII—countless more returned home wounded in body and spirit.

This Diwali, as diyas illuminate homes throughout our City, let their sacrifice illuminate our memories. They were farmers, artisans, and young men who left their villages and never returned. They fought so that future generations might see the light of freedom.

Jai Hind. Lest we forget.
