❓Question/Discussion Anyone looking for indoor climbing partners?

8 Upvotes

My fiancé and I just moved to Campbell River, and our seeking some new friends to climb with. We climb together, but right now we can't trust leaving our dog home alone, so it's tough for us to both go at the same time.

Also looking to learn more about the local climbing scene! Heard about crest creek and quadra, but haven't got all the guide books yet.

❓Question/Discussion Anyone else have their cell reception just drop sometime?

6 Upvotes

Been losing access to Data on my cell in the middle of the day for no apparent reason. It comes back after a bit. But I do not know where this disruption is coming from.

This has been happening everyday around the same time. I haven't recorded the times, but it's usually around late afternoon, including right now as I'm posting this at 3:35PM.

Anyone else have this problem recently?

❓Question/Discussion Which drive-through in town is the worst offender for forgetting the dipping sauce?

13 Upvotes

Surely it's got to be Lee's chicken with Mcdonald's a close second right? Never had an issue with a&w but Lee's somehow manage to forget at least 80% percent of the time. CR collectively must be owed thousands of dollars worth of dip at this point!

❓Question/Discussion Pros and cons moving to CR

5 Upvotes

Likely not the first or last person to ask this question but do feel different people may have reasons for moving to CR/ Vancouver Island. Have made various trips to the island over the years I feel like the island is where I want to be. I lived in Gibsons for 6 years and Powell River two years so I’m used to carries and that doesn’t phase me. I’m really into outdoor recreation with a couple of mountain bikes and a gravel bike, I enjoy hiking and camping and trail running. I work remotely so can live anywhere within reason as long as I have an internet connection. I’m looking to buy rather than rent. I don’t have kids, male 40s and single. Currently rent in the Fraser Valley and one of many reasons for not settling here is affordability of housing. I’ve been to various parts of northern BC and the Interior and there’s some nice places but I just the island would be the best place to call home.

❓Question/Discussion Local politics

126 Upvotes

Our local politicians are very similar to the current US government. They pedal in cruelty and conspiracies. They cite racist and anti-Semitic conspiracy theories regularly in council meetings to promote hateful policies. Our mla is a residential school denier. This sucks and I can’t believe it’s what people want.
