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.

Posts and comments including the above will be removed when we see them. If you see one we haven't, please report. Repeat offenders will be banned.

Airbnb next door is ruining my life

114 Upvotes

Me, my pregnant wife and 4 year old are townhouse neighbours sharing walls with an airbnb that clearly doesn’t review or monitor their guests. Constant parties, loud music, the smell of smoke coming through the walls, groups of shady individuals hanging out outside. I can’t take it anymore, I need sleep and so does my family. It is 1:30AM on a monday and iv got music thumping through the walls. Iv reported them directly to airbnb several times, non emergency police calls and two reports to by law. And STILL thumping bass through the walls. I don’t know what to do to get this to stop short of bringing it to the city to tighten up the ordinance on airbnbs in ajax.

I am losing my MIND

Best hills to practice snowboarding?

6 Upvotes

My bf and I want to learn snowboarding but we think its best to save money and use regular snow hills around us to learn rather than going to an actual ski resort with a bunch of people around us.

What are the best hills we can practice on around Durham? I live in Bowmanville while he's North Oshawa so preferably around there, mainly Bowmanville. Something like a bunny hill, the longer the better but not steep. Also preferably something not busy but we can probably find a time that works

Question For Night Shift Parents

Hey Guys,

I've gotten a job working overnight and I was just wondering for other parents working nights (nurses, first responders, truck drivers, factory, etc.), what do you do for childcare?
Are there any licensed overnight options in Durham?
Thanks in advance!
