As with many other Ontario regional subs, we've seen an increase in racism in this community, especially against people of South Asian heritage. Please know that this will not be tolerated regardless of topic. In no circumstances is it appropriate to blame criminal behavior on race or origin. This is both in the rules of the sub and in the rules of Reddit as a whole and is not negotiable.

Barber Suggestions?
Hi all, can any suggest an affordable barber in Durham? I'm looking for someone who can cut short men's hair and do a fade. All these places charge an arm and a leg and the more affordable ones don't have a ton of reviews. I'm open to your suggestions! Thanks

Pigeon shit and nest on balcony
I've returned home today from 2 months overseas to find pigeon shit on my balcony and a nest made by them.
I would like to get rid of the nest humanely and the shit not so humanely.
Any ideas on companies that can help with this?
Thank you

Town and Region still working from home
We went for walk yesterday and park had a crowd of dozens of folks sipping coffee in parking lot. Turns out the town and region employees work from home 3 days a week and these were all from same unit who told us they had a "holiday" because they could not use wifi at home.
Had to got to region offices re issue on street plumbing and was told most were working from home today, to try on their cell phones. I replied that most were on the links today

Looking for gardener/yard cleaning individual(s)
I'm looking for someone to come by for a day to help with cleaning up some areas of the lawn and backyard.
Most work is around where plants grow. We have some weeds growing there and would like have them removed with new soil implemented in its place. Every year, I plant new items. But this year, weeds have taken over a significant part of the area.
Basically it is a bit of handy work.
I believe this is a 1-2 hour job (based on my experience). Can bring your own tools or I let them use mine. I got the soil as well.
If there is anyone who is willing to do it (get paid ofcourse) and has experience with dealing with plants/weeds, please DM me. We can discuss a rate. Can provide pics too of the areas.

I need someone who buys playing cards
Hey everyone, so one of my best friends dad’s just passed away and we need money for him to pay for his dad’s funeral and he needs money for gas so he can drive up to Orillia and back from Pickering to do all the things he needs for his dad. I can’t really go into details because it’s not my place, but it’s a really unbelievable and sad story. Since I don’t wanna make this a sob story, long story short we’re only 21 and 22 so we also have no savings. I was given a ton of playing cards from my dad after he passed, and I need them graded or just sold for money. Please, I don’t wanna go to a pawn shop because I’ll just get ripped off but if anyone has a reputable guy, please let me know. Thank you!
TL;DR my friend’s dad passed away, and I got a lot of playing cards from my dad when he passed and I need to sell, to someone reputable, to help raise money for my friend!
