Re: Commuter towns west of YYZ

The trucks are starting to drain on me. They take up the left two lanes so really it's a one-lane road. And they're on the roads at all hours so it's just always busy. The home prices are so reasonable down by Grimsby/Beamsville. The 403 is a drag though, but the 407 does help though that could get ...

Re: CYKZ (Toronto/Buttonville)

Good Optometrist in the GTA

Hello! I've been "blessed" with terrible vision that just seems to be getting worse (now up to -9.00/-9.50). I've had some eye strain lately and it was worrisome to me.
