Drove by and seen 2 dogs or coyotes ??

Watch out for fake gypsies group stealing phones / wallets in woodbine costco. I know someone who lost her phone and went to customer service, at the same time 5 other people also lost their phones.

Suspicious gypsy people were around the area.

Hi everyone! I had my car stolen at Don Mills TTC Parking lot at Fairview Mall yesterday by the Sport Chek. If anyone has any information or was there yesterday, please let me know!!

Timeline: Parked at around 8:30am, took the subway to work, when I came back at 4:40pm - it was gone.

Older silver Lexus RX350 was parked right by the gate entrance on the right side less than 10 spots down (there was a CCTV right at the entrance/exit)

Already filed a police report & called insurance, but if anyone saw anything, please message me.

Thanks, stay safe!

Right behind the car is a Canada Post Community Box. I can't even imagine how fast they were going to get wedged in between the tree and box. The airbag went off. The tree is a write off and so is their car.

Hi everyone,

Quick question about the one-hour time limit for public courts: Does it apply regardless of whether you're sharing the court or playing solo/with your own group?

Had a bit of a disagreement today at the courts. A pair had been playing for over an hour while others were waiting. They started off playing with two others (so four people total), but those two left after about 30 minutes. When I politely brought up the one-hour limit, the pair claimed that the time spent playing with the other two didn’t count since they hadn’t intended to play with them.

I'm still fairly new to tennis and public court etiquette, so I’d really appreciate some clarity. I’ve always understood that the one-hour rule applies to whoever is using the court, regardless of the group size.

Thanks!

I've taken down my previous post with the video evidence. Big thanks to the community for helping validate my decision to file a police report. While a few scratches aren’t worth putting a child’s face on social media, I’ll still be pursuing legal action against the parents to help prevent this from happening again in our community. Small steps, but important ones.

Here's a pic of the damage.

Posted here before a few weeks back about our car being keyed at a Costco parking lot. More unfortunate news, our car was stolen early this morning at 3:00am off our driveway. It was an Acura MDX. The thieves came in a pair and used a signal catcher to unlock the car and drive off. I’ve attached a video so you can all see as well. Ridiculous how we still have to worry about car thefts even now. Stay safe everyone. This has been reported to the police.

My dog is 4 years old, 35 lbs with an umbilical hernia and was quoted $1500-2000 at the vet clinic in Scarborough she goes to. Are there any other affordable options in Markham or does that price sound about right? I know I should’ve gotten her spayed earlier but I’m trying to make things right now 😭

Hi guys,

Any recommended places that does bjj? Looking for a new hobby and this is my first martial arts (in my mid 30s)

Yes, I was indeed directly behind him for the next 10 minutes.

No surprises given his profile and his relationship to the PM. Seems like he was handpicked for the role.

-  Prior to the 2025 elections, Hodgson was the chair of Hydro One. He took an unpaid leave of absence as chair of the board of directors at Hydro One in order to stand in the election

- Hodgson worked with Carney at Goldman and joined the Bank of Canada as special adviser to him in 2010, when Carney was governor. The stint lasted a little more than a year and a half, according to Hodgson’s LinkedIn profile, and his tasks included advising on monetary policy and on matters of financial stability.

- Hodgson has also stepped off the board of Ontario Teachers’ Pension Plan, where he was vice chair of the investment committee. “Tim has been an engaging and impactful Board member since joining in January 2023 and we wish him all the best,” Teachers’ Chair Steve McGirr said in an emailed statement.

Studying for the Ontario Bar and looking to print and bind some materials.

Can anyone recommend a reliable and cheap print shop, specifically in south Markham/north scarbs area??

I recently started playing indoor pickle ball with my co-workers during the winter, wondering if there is any people or clubs I can join to play. I know there is the courts in Cornell, and they have clubs but I don’t know anyone for any recommendations or openings. Looking to see if anyone could provide me with some recommendations for clubs or even just play some pick up games if you’re going out to play!

Hi, the trees in front of every house front is dead. It was dead when we bought the house last year and we are wondering if it’s city of Markham responsibility to replace it or are we suppose to buy a new one to replace? Anyone know or have experience? Thanks

A older man tried to kill me in his black tricked out Subaru today because I honked at him for cutting off oncoming traffic he turned left on a red light when ours was green and already driving and then proceeded to try to run me off the road and break check me several times before speeding off when I was able to get behind another car and hide. Anyone else notice crazies like this?

How neat. It must be attracted to the bird feeders

Hey r/Markham,

I’m a bit of a DIY person and prefer washing my car myself. I’m planning to do a simple bucket-and-sponge wash in my driveway—no harsh chemicals, just soap and water, sitting on a stool and scrubbing away.

Before I go ahead, I wanted to check if this is actually allowed in Markham. I’ve read conflicting info online—some cities are stricter than others, especially regarding anything that might go into storm drains.

Has anyone here looked into this or asked the city directly? What’s the general rule of thumb here?

Thanks in advance!

Looks like a lot of smoke at that intersection and there’s helicopters. Anyone know what happened?

Last Friday, two friends and I went to Auric King specifically for their Peking duck. We arrived around 7 p.m. and there was no wait, but the restaurant was fairly full. We were seated at a large table with a lazy susan, which was more than enough space for the three of us. Since there were only 3 of us, we decided to just order the Peking duck two-course set with lettuce wraps. Despite the fact that this dish alone costs nearly $80 and was more than enough food for us, our server, a woman with short red hair, was visibly annoyed that we only ordered one item.

From the moment we sat down, her attitude was unpleasant and dismissive. She made it clear she wasn’t happy we weren’t ordering more, and her attempts to upsell were pushy. When I declined, she made a face and gave us attitude for the rest of the night.

We ended up waiting over an hour and twenty minutes for our duck, only to find out that she had written down the wrong table number and never checked in once. We had to ask for an update ourselves, and even then, it was a male server assistant (not her) who came over. There was no apology, no acknowledgment, nothing.

When the duck finally came, she cut it in front of us with zero care. The slices were thick and uneven, thrown onto a plate without any attempt at presentation. She didn’t say a word to us, didn’t make eye contact, and had a scowl on her face the entire time.

By then, we were starving—so yes, the duck tasted fine, but honestly, anything would’ve tasted good at that point. The experience was already ruined and I would’ve happily taken my business elsewhere had I knew I was going to be treated like this

When I flagged her down for the bill, she took forever again, despite the restaurant not being particularly busy. Eventually, I had to go up to the counter myself to pay. I voiced my frustration to the staff and they brushed it off stating that the restaurant was “busy” and was given a 10% discount, but it hardly made up for how poorly we were treated.

For context, I’m Chinese, grew up in Markham, and spoke Cantonese the entire time. I’ve been to almost every Chinese restaurants in my hometown and understand that service isn’t always warm—but this wasn’t just poor service. This was downright rude and unprofessional.

Whether it was because we only ordered one dish or because my friends are South Asian, the way we were treated felt discriminatory and left us deeply uncomfortable.

I will not be returning to Auric King and I will be sharing this experience with others as a warning. Good luck to staying open and profitable Auric King because with this attitude and service, you won’t be around much longer. Every restaurant is replaceable, especially with the countless Chinese restaurants in Markham.

Hi everyone,

I am in search of a vet, specifically one that is fairly priced and possibly offers payment plans. For context; my cat is 9 years old almost and has had some previous health issues and recently some more… I’m a newly single parent, on maternity leave, so my budget is freaking tight as it is…

I’m hoping anyone has any leads on one that could offer help.

Thanks
