This morning around 8:00am, Ojibway Parkway heading towards the expressway was backed up. I'm sure everyone tought it was because of the construction, but to my surprise it wasn't. There was a car pulled over with a sweet elderly woman in drivers seat and 3 construction workers were changing her tire while she stayed warm in her car. To those construction workers who did that in the freezing cold; we need more people like you
......that totally made my day. Just awesome!!!!

I just wanted to post a huge thanks you to who ever found my debit care outside my car when I must have dropped it and not noticed. Thank you for putting it under my windshield wiper. & lt;3 much love and appreciation as I am a student and freaked out when I couldn't find it. Bless you !!!

I recently put an add on Kijiji for employment and received a text from 1(347) 878-5317, this number asked me if I was interested in a job that was with PBM pharmaceuticals and that they believed i have the qualifications to hold a position as Administrative officer, data entry, payroll receptionist and customer service and it was my choice on where id like to be within the company. Once I responded with which position I would like and how would I go about the interview process, they wrote that it was Mon-Fri flex hours and wage was 25.70 starting for 30 to 40 hour work week. Then asked me if i had yahoo messenger, and if not to make an account and to add Grace Lovell the hiring manager to do an online interview the following morning. I felt as if this was to good to be true, so I asked if I could have the persons name and ID number of the person who text me so i could reference them in my conversation with Mrs. Lovell and the response was Mr. James. I immediately took to google and googled the phone number and saw that this was a scam and that they use different company names. They also seek a deposit fee for you to be hired on. Please do not be fooled by this and loose your money and possibly personal information. It is a sad day when people attack others who are searching for a job and get their hopes up and possibly try and scam them out of the money that they do have.

To whom it may concern,


My Mother is a dedicated employee at an LCBO store in Windsor. She moved to the Windsor a few years ago. Since moving here, she has been consistently ostracized by her co-workers. Maybe it’s because she isn’t from around here. Maybe it is because she keeps to herself. Maybe it is because she works hard instead of trying to be social with her fellow co-workers like everyone else. Her focus is on her job, not being popular. Whatever it is, she is different and is treated as so. She is being harassed and bullied in the workplace, by a GUY. 


My mother previously worked at a small remote LCBO location for 12 years. She was loved and respected there by management and her fellow co-workers. She was well known and was a ‘Mom’ to all the town kids. They would come in just to talk to her and even come to her for advice and guidance. She loved her job. She looked forward to going to work every day and dreaded going home that can only be described as Hell. Three years ago my mom finally hit her breaking point and jumped at the opportunity to transfer to Windsor and start a new life. She left her friends, her beloved job, the house she raised her family in and her toxic husband. This transition wasn’t easy for my mom who had been isolated, forbidden and controlled practically her entire adult life. My mom moved here because this is where she was born and wanted to be closer to her grandchildren. Ironic how 3 years ago work was her great escape with the dread of going home, to the exact opposite now that she has moved to Windsor. She left an abusive bully of a husband, and traded him for an abusive bully of a co-worker. 


There are numerous things that bother me about this situation.


1.       For a place that thrives on serving adults only, it’s run by a group of spoiled children.

2.       My mom moved here seeking solace and people at her job treated like garbage simply for being different and not a part of the ‘clan’. This is well known by management.

3.       Numerous complaints and incidents against this GUY have been brought to management’s attention and are on record yet nothing serious has been done about it. He continues to bully her.

4.       When I heard about the most recent incident against my mom and this GUY, I showed up to her work to bring her flowers and give her strength after she spent her previous day and that morning working in tears. When I asked for her by name, this GUY immediately looked at me and gave me a disgusting look along with an inappropriate sound.

5.       The LCBO has done NOTHING to prevent this from occurring. They have only slapped this persons hand and walk away on multiple occasions.

6.       My mother must suffer in silence alone each day while trying her best to avoid this GUY.

7.       Our children are told about bullying every day in school and given the support of their teachers. An adult woman is bullied at work, and her employers look the other way.


Please let me clarify that when I say “the LCBO”, I am in no way speaking about the manager of the store my mother works at. That woman should be applauded for her efforts to turn this situation around. Unfortunately without the support of the management above her, the battle is proving to be a waste of her effort. What kind of safe workplace does the LCBO offer when one of their own full-time employees has become depressed, experienced anxiety attacks, carries a feeling of dread each morning and has to eat lunch in her car for the sole purpose of avoiding an immature, extremely aggressive, psychologically and verbally abusive co-worker who chooses to bully a woman in her fifties? Worse of all, what employer allows one of their own dedicated, and hardworking employees to be subjected to this torture daily by a 40-something angry man-child who spends more time sitting in a chair playing on his phone at work than earning his pay each day? What corporation allows an aggressive and abusive adult male to scream at women in the workplace while continuously belittling her in front of staff and the public? What type of employer continues to give someone like this man, chances after chances only proving that nothing will be done in the end? He will still have his job. He can continue to abuse his female co-worker every day. And by taking the matter so lightly, the LCBO will stand behind HIM instead of standing in front of my mother to protect her from the agony of Workplace Harassment. Would YOU allow someone to treat your child this way in school? Would you sit back and watch your spouse or your parents be treated this way at this way? Would you give as little, or less, thought or care for them? Or would you step in and make a difference? Would you take the opportunity to show every single person who works there that harassment and bullying in the workplace is NOT tolerated and those who choose to harass and bully their co-workers will be disciplined harshly up to and including termination? I know I would.


I will be forwarding this letter to all management at the LCBO as well as head office and will continue to do so until serious action has been taken against this GUY. I will continue to forward this letter on a daily basis. Additionally I will spend every moment in between convincing my mother to contact the Ontario Ministry of Labour and file criminal harassment charges and sue not only the company as a whole, but management and this GUY personally. The LCBO has a record with my mother of violating the Ontario Ministry of Labour’s Workplace Violence and Harassment Policy, and the Ontario Human Rights Act. The LCBO has not performed their due diligence in protecting my mother.


My mother has chosen not to confront this issue because she is afraid. She is afraid that she will be forced to move to another store. She loves the store she is at now, has established a decent working relationship with the store manager, and loves working so close to her home. She is afraid of the repercussions of what may happen. She knows that this GUY will not be fired; only disciplined. She is afraid of upsetting the group. She is afraid that she will be the one who has to suffer in the end.  She knows that just as in past practice, this GUY will only return to work more aggressive and spiteful then before. The bullying will only get worst. But I won’t let it continue. I’m not afraid. I will ensure that all of the management at the LCBO knows what is happening to my poor mother. I will make sure that the Ontario Ministry of Labour knows exactly what my mother has been put through because of the LCBO’s negligence. I will tell everyone this story who dares to listen, every day, until this issue is taken seriously and serious repercussions are felt to everyone who has enabled this abuse to persist for so long. I want him fired. And I will do EVERYTHING in my power, including reaching out to the local media and social media to see this happen. The sooner this is resolved the better.

On Jan 13th 2014 my daughter was crossing the street at Howard and Eugenie when she was struck by a Silver Honda Civic. The women driving was looking down most likely texting while driving. When she realized she had hit my daughter she got out asked if she was ok and before she had time to respond she jumped back in her car and drove away. The Women was in her mid to late 30's with dyed blonde hair driving a Silver Honda Civic all my daughter got was the last 3 digits on her Plate... It was an Ontario Plate last 3 digits are _ _ _ _ 958. My daughter is a minor and according to the LAW this women should have either drove her to the hospital home or called an ambulance and WAITED until it got there. NOT Drove away. It is NOW considered a Hit and Run and the Police have not been very helpful. My daughter had to walk on crutches for 3 weeks and now is walking with a cane for a few month's. If you know this women or see this car please EMAIL ME Right Away.
Think what you'd be like if it was your Teenage Daughter....

My husband is a telus customer and received a call tonight from potential scammer asking for his credit card in order to receive $3000.00. In telus dollars due to his excellent payment history. This call was not from telus in fact upon informing them we learned that many other customers had called in to report this latest scam.

About 4 weeks ago I visited the Tim Hortons drive thru on the corner of lauzon Rd and Wyandotte. I got a coffee and my change was supposed to be 45 cents. They gave me my coffee took my money but never returned with change. I honked my horn and they came and I asked do I not get change? She returned it and I left. Today I went back there again. I got a coffee which is 1.80. They gave me my coffee and took my 2 bucks. They closed the window and again didn't come back with my change. I honked again and they were all standing there turned around and never looked. I get it, it's 20 cents but seriously people. That's ripping people off and not fair at all. I emailed Tim Hortons and hopefully they will contact me again. Do your job correctly and if you cant, get another job.
