CANADIAN TIRE Locations

Hey guys, just have a question about dedicated snow tires. Are there any off-road capable dedicated winters? I live in the Canadian prairies and we have winter for nearly half a year here. Winter includes very icy roads most of the time with occasional warmer periods in which the roads can be on the slushy side. Occasionally the roads can also be dry but very cold asphalt. We also get a lot of snow during the snowfall periods. I don't believe AT tires ever cut it here, for example I was on my Firestones destination X/T tires earlier this winter after first snow and there was some ice and I slid through an intersection where I would have normally been able to come to a stop with my de...

Been with the company since 2019. Never minded my job and I love my coworkers. However, I am a student first and I am disabled. Last year I had to take a leave of absence due to my health. I changed my preferred hours from 40/week to 20 and for a while I was fine. However, my manager slowly started upping my hours. Talked to her and my reduced hours cannot be accommodated by the business [she is a new manager to our store]. Yeah I know I could get a letter from my doctor but I am tired of fighting. I put my two weeks notice in. I am going to miss my coworkers but my health comes first. Anyways, I am a bit worried about losing benefits. My health insurance will end end of March, correct? I...

# Career change... 27F! Help! Hello! Going to try to make this as short as possible. I am currently 27 years old and a retail store manager. I have a bachelor's degree in Marketing, graduated in December 2020. I started at my current job part-time in college. While I was in college, I worked my way up into manager roles (keylead to assistant manager to store manager) and have been the store manager for the last 3.5 years. In total, I have been in manager roles with my company for going on 6.5 years and 8.5 years total. This was my first job. I am a high performer and exceed targets, have developed multiple managers for promotion, and have been offered to relocate to a top 25 store in ...

I'm 67. I work 3 mornings a week at a grocery store (3 am to 8 am, Sat, Sun and Mon). The rest of the week I do nothing. Just sit at my desk and watch Youtube, Reddit, Facebook. About once every 3 months or so if the weather isn't too inclement or cold, I try to "get outta Dodge" for an overnight at a bed and breakfast out of town. I am planning an 11-day road trip in mid May to visit my son and daughter in law in Boston (combo flying, Amtrak and Greyhound). I'm REALLY looking forward to this! But most of the time I'm bored beyond belief. I'm overweight. It's winter and I'm tired of being cold. I used to walk 3 miles in the mornings on m...

I recently asked the Canadian Federal government if I should upgrade my lights to LEDs to be a safer driver and see better (as recommended by the Canadian Tire website). I wanted to know if this is officially recommended. They directed me to the provincial government. The provincial government redirected me to the registry of motor vehicles. The registry of motor vehicles redirected me to the Motor Vehicle Act (1989) (**which has no mention of LEDs in it**), citing: Section 176 – Regulations respecting lighting equipment Section 177 – Spot, fog, signal, or brake lights In their email the final response was: "You may seek a second opinion from another Certified Mechanic. I c...

A video of someone approaching a woman on a Quebec City street and asking if she is "Ghislaine" went viral after viewers noticed the woman's resemblance to Ghislaine Maxwell. The Instagram account that posted the video last week says it used artificial intelligence to place Maxwell's face on the woman. The account is known for posting prank videos that use AI-generated faces, including the late Jeffrey Epstein. THE CLAIM A video posted to Instagram Wednesday sparked conspiracy theories about a convicted sex trafficker supposedly surfacing in Canada. In the video, someone walks up to a man and woman standing in front of a Snack Québ store. The Canadian Press geolocated...

Not today, im sitting pretty with beers. I just forgot to post this the other day. I went my first full day without alcohol in probably over a year bc.... paradoxically, withdrawals and general weakness. I was so tired the day after drinking, sweaty and weak, as usual. But for the first time in a while, my bed-ridden state lasted all day (I wanna say a week ago or so idek anymore) and I couldn't even get up. For reference, I dont drive, I still live with my dad 26m, and he doesnt approve of drinking although he definitely knows to a CERTAIN extent. So not only do I have to walk to get booze, I have to walk to my stores in the next neighborhood, 40 min walk round trip cuz A. I live in ...

Been with my girlfriend for 3 years. I love her. I really do. But I'm exhausted and I need help figuring out what to do. Some context about me: I have Asperger's. Most people don't even know because I've gotten really good at masking. But sometimes I wonder if the way I communicate or process things is part of the problem here. I work full time and I've been renovating my house nights and weekends. I'm talking basement buildout - kitchen, bathroom, living room, gym, fireplace. All of it. I'm also taking care of my elderly mom who lives with me and has hoarding issues. So yeah, I've got a lot on my plate. Some more context: Before I met my girlfriend...

I have finally curated a lingerie drawer that I am really proud of. After years of wearing ill-fitting cotton basics, I invested in a lot of sheer mesh and lace pieces. They make me feel great, but the maintenance is becoming a complete nightmare. I know everyone says you have to hand wash everything to make it last, but realistically, who has the time to scrub twenty separate items in the bathroom sink every Sunday night? I am trying to find a machine method that is actually safe for these fabrics. Last weekend I did a test run with older stuff I wouldn’t cry over. I wanted to see if the hand wash setting on my new washer was trustworthy. I gathered a mix of fabrics: some old fast fashi...

I'm honestly tired of seeing those huge "70% OFF!" signs everywhere that, with a quick price check, turn out to be barely 10% off the product's *actual* regular price. Or worse, the price was inflated just before the "sale" even started. It's frustrating to feel like you're constantly being played, right? I've been tracking prices for a while, mostly for things I actually need or genuinely want, and I've learned that a little bit of digging and patience *really* pays off. It's not about finding magical unicorns every day, but about avoiding overpaying and grabbing a genuinely good deal when it pops up. Here are a couple of recent exper...

I'm just tired of the entitled people bringing their dog in the store. You got the dogs who dont move dont blink almost dont breathe, because theyre just an accessory under the person's arms or purse; everything dog about them seems stripped away. its depressing. Or you get the little untrained mutt in a stroller that barks at everyone who walks by and is a nuisance in the store, absolutely untrained and unfit to be in a store. People bringing their dogs inside the cart, which is even worse than a personal stroller, because other people have to use that cart and there's literally a sign that says they cannot be in the cart. Letting their big dogs walk around on a leash. ...

Long story, (sorry but I need to tell this story SOMEWHERE), sohere we go. I won’t add to much description of the exact company and the owners so they don’t get harassed. For simplicity there is Co-owner 1 (CO1) late 30’s and was a sports radio station host until he was let go for wanting a huge raise but didn’t bring in enough listeners and Co-owner 2 (CO2) who was a sports journalist but was let go during the pandemic (in CO2’s defense he was a very talented writer). They started a very small livestream company to broadcast high school sports north of Pittsburgh for one school (now broadcasting for 3 different schools) during the pandemic and were doing pretty well financiall...

If you look back at my two previous posts then the context will make more sense. My boyfriend of 2 years got jumped on Saturday night. He called me all night while he was at the hospital. But I was sleeping. I was really sad because he had gone out to clubs with his friends on Valentine’s Day and then the weekend after was his birthday and he ghosted me. Said he planned to go to clubs with friends but they blew him off. Said he just went home on the night of his birthday but he didn’t text me until 9:30pm the following day. He had wanted his id from my house so he could go somewhere with friends Saturday night but I didn’t pick up his calls. He got bailed on and went alone. Got jumped...

is anyone else sick and tired of being harassed and hounded about the email capture, i’m hearing they are talking about increasing the goal PAST 30% which is ridiculous. it’s difficult when you have regulars who are in the store multiple times throughout the week or the elderly people who “already get enough emails” and they say no to us.

TLDR: first nonprofit job out of college has been a mess and it seems like the organization is failing and I can’t handle working there anymore. No advice needed, just venting. I (23) graduated college 2 years ago and began working at a nonprofit shortly after. I was initially hired as a temporary part-time officer manager for an advocacy/community organizing nonprofit. I quickly realized that things were a mess to say the least. I probably should’ve seen this coming as the executive director who hired me literally ghosted me for like two weeks after our second interview. (She got busy). I started and things were going well but strange (keep in mind, this is my first “adult” job an...

If you’re trying to track residency days for tax purposes across multiple states or countries, I genuinely think **iReside** is the strongest option right now, especially if you’re tired of spreadsheets and manual counting. # Why iReside stands out * **Automatic day tracking** using background location (set it up once, it runs in the background) * **Totals by state/country** so you can quickly see where you stand * **Clear day-by-day timeline** so you can verify and correct anything if needed * **Exportable reports** so you can keep documentation for your own records or share with a CPA * Built for **snowbirds, students abroad, remote workers, frequent travelers, and multi-home** situa...

Alright, u/BlueBandit86 and u/Kasp244 had asked about the MPI systems and i happened to be in the process of ordering and here’s my initial impressions. To preface this, I’m a middle aged male running a 2017 CCSB 4x4 F250 XLT with the 6.2 mated to the 6 speed with a 3.73 rear end running stock size tires. I do have the camper package so it sits a bit tall as you may note in the picture. I have wanted to put exhaust on my truck since i bought it a handful of years ago but everything i found/read with MBRP and other big brands was they drone…. I **** drone. Best option i had heard was some combination of removing cats or a resonator or just the muffler etc, but again everyone still men...

My (27M) boyfriend (25M) and I have been talking about moving in together this year. He has said he's worried that he will be mean to me and that I will regret it. He would be moving several states and I worry about him being away from his job, his family, stores he's grown up with, products, everything. We have spent a lot of time together in person, but only for periods of about four to five days, and those have been vacation, not day-to-day. He hasn't been very forthcoming about his fears and needs, and has said he wants to face things when we get to them. I feel like that's setting our relationship up for failure. He said that he flips out over small things in the hou...

I’m 22F and I didn’t graduate college. I also have been a chronic job hopper (my current job is my longest held, about a year and a half. My previous I left after around 9-12 months). I am a thrift store manager and I make decent money ($60,000/yr). I live in Boston so the salary isn’t actually that high compared to our living wage, but it’s pretty good. I dropped out of college because I was flunking all of my classes (got diagnosed with ADHD after dropping out… smh). I like working customer service, but my job is really draining. With where I work, we have a lot of homeless customers/drug users. I am frequently harassed. One was in the store the other day, “promoting his busi...

Today I was on my way to the store to buy some bread and a few potatoes for lunch. Life has been heavy lately. Most of my salary goes to paying loans — not only mine, but ones I took to help my family and even friends. So I walk more. I think more. I live simpler. On the way, I tripped over something on the ground. It was an old book. The cover was worn, the pages yellow, slightly torn by time. The title was “Forgotten Treasures.” I sat on a nearby bench just to look at it for a minute… but I started reading. And I stopped feeling the rush. Stopped thinking about money. Stopped looking at my phone. A man passed by, looked at me and asked: “Is it good?” ...
