After recently moving from Brampton to downtown Toronto, my insurance cost went down a whopping $15 dollars from $205/month to $189/month. Now I just got my renewal notice with Aviva, with basically the same monthly amount of $189 for another year. I shopped around and I get quotes with CAA for $120...

Hi RFD forum, I can't seem to find the information on zoning bylaws for a rear shed in my backyard. I'm in the RS zoning for east-end Toronto for a semi-detached home. The Toronto website is confusing to use... I'm looking to build a 9'x17', 153sq storage shed, with 2.5' setbacks on 3 sides. It acco...

I'm curious if anybody else sees this as it's an obvious mistake. I almost blew a gasket today when I submitted my taxes (due to slow T3 slips). After uploading to CRA I logged into my account to make sure it was in properly. It showed as "Assessed". When I clicked on the "Assessed&qu...

Before I go to VBCE, I bet one of you know some crazy hidden place that has better exchange rate.

Any...

So I have been checking for like 10mins on google and YouTube and having a hard time finding the OBD port on the 2007 City Jetta.

Hopefully I'm in the right place. It was either here or the home & garden, but since so many people bought the original Simoniz electric pressure washer from Canadian Tire to wash car, I thought I would try here. I bought a 25 feet flexilla hose to replace the 10 foot one that came with the wash...

We bought a pre-con and in speaking with my mortgage person they recommended that I work with her colleague to get a rate locked in before the next hike. Her colleague asked for the usual stuff like pay slips, T4s, IDs etc, but a few things seemed kind of invasive like copies of last 3mo statements ...
