Dedicated to the general sights, news and funny happenings in the wonderful city of Windsor
I'd like to give a big shout out to all the colleges stepping up to help the students of Everest College....this is a shocker and needless to say a big disappointment for the students....thanks again for helping them out including my daughter....kudos to you all!!!
Thank you to the kindness of strangers. As I was driving down manning rd I hit a patch of ice sending my car halfway in the ditch . Thanks to the many strangers that stopped to see if I needed help unable to get my car out I called a tow truck Wow 2-3 hour wait that's fine and along come 2 men one in a van on done in a pickup . Thanks to the gentleman who pulled me out of the ditch. These two men in this freezing cold Hooke chains to the truck and pulled me out within minutes. There are still kind hearted people in this world once again gentlemen thank you for stopping and helping an act of kindness that is appreciated
Little black, white and brown Chihuahua dog, girl I believe. Found in the 700 block of Windermere Road.
She was brought to the a Walker Road Animal Hospital to see if she was microchipped, but her chip was never registered. Anyone looking for her can call Walker Road Animal Hospital or the Humane Society. They'll pick her up from there in the morning.
A fellow co-worker of ours had been off sick for a couple of days so we wanted to surprise her and her family with a dinner since she's been in severe pain. I went to the Michigan Roadhouse in LaSalle, and had asked if they could put together a care package of pasta, potatoes, chicken, salad, and such. Not only was the Chef extremely accommodating but also genuine in his concern for our co-worker when we went to pick it up. I'd like to give a special thanks to the Chef at the Michigan Roadhouse for making a wonderfully prepared meal for a family who truly enjoyed it! Please if you are ever in LaSalle please swing by the Mich, as we have had such a positive experience that needed to be mentioned!
To the person at the Tim Hortons drive thru on Tecumseh and Chandler this afternoon. I had placed our order but when we drove up to the pickup Window we were told that our order was being paid for by the car behind us. We were both shocked and thankful for such an unexpected act of kindness.
Thank you from the couple with the Colorado plates
To all those who commented, shared, or even reflected on my post about being shamed for my hijab, you have been spotted!
As I write this, there are 108 comments, and over 1700+ shares - with just about every single one being incredibly positive and supportive! Just from the posts I saw, comments and shares went across Canada, off to the UK and the US. Your words have now resonated not just with me, but around the world.
Your comments went straight to the hearts of others you didn't even know. Some Muslim women who read the feedback literally cried at the outpouring of support. Your words mean an incredible amount to myself and my family, but more importantly your positive message spread across a city to a group of people who were feeling unsure of how people perceived them in their own home town. Your comments changed peoples hearts and minds - bravo, Windsor!
This incident was - in my eyes - incredibly small in terms of things other people have said and done just because of a simple piece of cloth. To be honest, I even contemplated not posting because of this reason. But I saw a few comments saying they had no idea this even happened to people. And it really made me think - what is normal for me, is unthinkable to others. It really stopped me in my tracks, reaffirming for me that posting here was the right thing to do. In the end, as you all have proven, bullying is not acceptable and will NOT win. Love and understanding will be triumphant if we let it!
You all made a difference, and for that, YOU have been spotted!
I would just like to give a shout out to the lady in the red coat at Wal-Mart on Dougall Tuesday. My 80 year old mother was having a rough day, you bought her a bouquet of flowers and told her she reminded you of your mother who was no longer here. I would just like to say you brought tears to her eyes and mine you also brightened her day. You know she didn't put those flowers down for the rest of the day, so a GREAT BIG HUG TO YOU. Your mother raised a beautiful lady :)))
As a request from Molly's dad we created a Facebook page together. Please like and share the page. You can find all the latest news and updates on both Cassie and Molly here.
Again thank you so very much to all of you who have taken the time to sign and share the petition and page. Please remember to write a letter to your local MP as to why this change is very much needed.
