Was anyone stuck waiting for the train that got stuck on Harris Road, just past Glenmore, on Thursday morning? It was stopped for a while before slowly moving backward. Anyone know what happened?

Hi, I'd like to post a message from Democrats Abroad in BC. This is the second (and final) reminder I'll make for dual Canadian-US citizens and other eligible US voters who want to participate in the 2026 American midterm elections, especially for those living in Mission. Democrats Abroad in Canada is dedicated to mobilizing overseas US voters; if you're over 18 by November 3, here's how you can get involved:

Steps to Request Your Ballot

1. Register or update your registration through Votefromabroad.org. As an alternative, you can also use FVAP.gov.

2. If you're already registered, request a ballot! You need to request a ballot every calendar year that you want to vote.

3. Fill Out and Return Your Ballot: Once you receive your ballot, follow the instructions carefully to complete it and return it by the specified deadline.

Need Assistance?

We're here to help! If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to us at GOTV @ votefromabroad .org (just remove the spaces). Additionally, our FAQ for voting can answer questions on how to make the process go smoothly.

Importantly: Spread the word!

Do you have any friends, contacts or family overseas that you could reach? All eligible US citizens can vote regardless of where they're living. Share the link https://voteabroad.org/RedditVote26: If you have any questions about voting, I'd be happy to answer them here on Reddit. You can also find out what we're doing near you at Democrats Abroad. Thanks for reading!

Where do you go to find events, gatherings, socials, and informal meetups in the city?
I’ve found What’s On Mission useful, but it doesn’t seem to share many informal gatherings, like book clubs, park meetups, community get-togethers, etc.

Hello Mission community,

I'm a grad student from UBC working with the Cultus Lake Stewardship Society (CLASS) on a valuation study of Cultus Lake. The lake is currently still healthy, but it is facing some threats to its future health, such as excessive nutrient inflows and reduced seasonal mixing. Our study will capture what would be lost if the health of the lake declines, in monetary terms. The results will help the Society and local governments make informed decisions about future investments in the lake’s health.

As many people from Mission enjoy Cultus Lake, I wanted to post here to invite you to participate.

We are hoping as many people as possible fill out our research survey. It takes about 10 to 15 minutes to complete and at the end you can enter a draw for a $25 Amazon gift card.

Here is a link to the survey:

More information about this project and the work of the Cultus Lake Stewardship Society can be found on the Cultus Lake Stewardship Society website (this is linked at the end of the survey as well).

Thank you for your time reading this and your support of our research project.

Starting a temporary job in Aldergrove, and I was wondering if it's feasible to bike or e-bike there? I don't drive, and the bus schedule doesn't line up with when I have to be there. I'm also relatively new to the area and I'm not a hundred percent sure on the routes.

We are moving from Metro Vancouver, looking to find a bigger house with affordable rental prices. All our friends are saying we are moving to 'nowhere', where there is no diversity and nothing to do. To be honest, I think a calmer place where we can find a community is what I really need right now as we think about starting a family. I think what I'm looking for here is confirmation that it is a good decision lol .. what is your opinion about the city?

I’m looking to have a few 1-1 classes for drawing. I’m illustrating something but I have absolutely no skills when it comes to drawing, so I’m looking for some classes to help me figure out what I’m doing.

Thanks for any recommendations!

Hi! Im new to the area and I'm planning a wedding at Steelhead Community Hall and I'd really like to have a food truck come in and do the catering. Preferably one that can work with a more modest budget. I'd really appreciate some food truck suggestions. Much thanks!
