1. Planet Fitness?
Original English title:Planet fitness?
Post content summary:I'm thinking about joining Planet Fitness but I want to know how busy it is. I'd probably go around 6 AM on weekdays since I'll be placed 5 days a week. I usually tend to avoid going to the gym in the afternoon/evening because I know it can get crazy. How is Planet Fitness in the early morning? If it's busy, do you know any gyms in town that aren't as busy in the early morning? TIA!

Anyone buy from Auto Depot on The Kingsway? If so, how was your experience?

- I bought from them in 2019. The salesman was nice - I already knew what I wanted. However, they walked me through everything, took me for a test drive - actually probably drove a few cars. I don't remember the specifics, but it was a smooth experience.
EN: I bought from them in 2019. Salesman was fine - I kinda already knew what I wanted. They walked me through it though, took me for a test drive - may have driven a couple actually. I don't remember the exact details, but - The only thing that bothered me a bit was the decals and ads they left on the back. I hated it, but not enough to do anything about it (obviously).
EN: Only thing that kinda bothers me is their decals and ads they leave on the back. I hate it, but not enough to do anything about it (apparently). - I remove all decals/license plate frames from any vehicle I purchase. I still tell them. Pay me and I'll advertise for you. You don't know. I take them off. I've bought many cars in my life, but only once did I get $1000 from a dealer down south. But to answer the original question. I tried to buy from Auto Depot before COVID. I had the ad for the car I wanted on my phone. Got there. Took it for a ride. Went in to negotiate the price, and it was still $2
EN: I remove all decals/license plate frames from any vehicle I purchase. And I tell them all the same. Pay me and I'll advertise for you. You dont. I remove them. Ive purchased many vehicles in my life and only once did I g
3. Suggestions for the downtown mall? Any plans? What should be done with it?
Original English title:suggestions on downtown mall is there plans with it? What should be done with it?
Featured comments:
- That place was a bomb in the seventies and eighties. For the most part, it's the nicest mall in the city. Maybe someday we'll all get tired of online and suburban life and have a cultural urge to reconnect in common places for shared experiences.
EN: That place was the bomb in the 70s and 80s. By a good measure the city’s prettiest mall. Maybe someday we will all get tired of living online and in the burbs and have a cultural urge to reconnect in common places for co - Malls everywhere are dying. It would be wiser to do a case study first to see what works, and then just give up on it. But ultimately it all depends on private business owners, so our say doesn't have much influence.
EN: Malls are dying everywhere. It would be smarter to just do a case study as to what works then go off that. But ultimately it’s all up to the private business owner so our say doesn’t have much pull. - Honestly, I think renaming it recently to 'commercial space' instead of a mall makes sense, and I'm glad to see more offices there.
EN: Honestly, I feel like the recent rebrand of it being a "business place" rather than a mall makes sense and I would be happy to see more offices etc there. - They spent more money on rebranding than on actual good ideas to revive the business. This mall died in the mid-90s. It's been on life support since then. Businesses cost too much to occupy space in the mall. They need to be lowered. People don't like going downtown because of drugs, crime, and homelessness. Not enough has been done to address these issues. The new downtown arena shouldn't happen. They should build a few new public
EN: They've pissed more money away on rebranding than actual good ideas to bring business back. This mall died in the mid 90s. And it's been on life support since. Costs for a business to take up space in the mall are too hi
4. Any info on this lake?
Original English title:Any information on this lake?
Post content summary:Right across from Garson Lake Road near the mine, is it safe, are there fish?
English excerpt (verified):
Just off Garson lake road across the mine, is it safe, any fish?
Featured comments:
- I do believe that's an old open pit mine or quarry, so it's not a lake but private land. Could also be tailings. Either way, being next to a mine likely means the water is somewhat contaminated.
EN: I do believe that is an old open pit mine or quarry and is therefore not a lake but private land. Could also be tailings. Regardless, being right beside a mine likely means the water is contaminated in someway. - Did you see that episode of The Simpsons with the three-eyed fish? I think you might catch one of those there.
EN: Have you ever seen that Simpsons episode with the three-eyed fish? I would imagine you could probably catch one of those in there. - Radioactive fish... start drooling like Homer Simpson
EN: Radioactive fish..... Starts drooling like Homer Simpson - This is the Garson 10.2 pit. The Garson mine was first dug and retired long ago. Don't listen to others saying it's tailings or contaminated. Vale stocked it with healthy speckled trout. But swimming is boring because it's muddy and has leachate, but people and dogs do swim in it. You can walk in along the trails on Cedar St or Garson Lake Rd, but sometimes Vale environmental staff are on the trails
EN: It’s Garson 10.2 pit. The first excavation at Garson Mine and long decommissioned. Don’t listen to other people saying it’s tailings or contaminated. It stocked by Vale with speckled trout and healthy. But swimming is me
5. Help! Sudbury needs an alternative hairdresser
Original English title:HELP! In need of an alternative hairdresser in Sudbury
Post content summary:I want to dye my hair neon pink, any hairdresser recommendations? I'm in the New Sudbury area, I have long hair, and I want to cut, bleach, and dye it neon pink because I work at a summer camp and I think the kids would love it. It's something I really want to do secretly, not telling anyone. I just want to randomly show up at work one day with bright pink hair. If there are any independent salons in town you might recommend, or just someone you know who can professionally dye hair, come
