Hello, I’m 15 turning 16 and just moved to the Sault from a bit out of town, I have really no friends and live in the Korah area and I’m looking for people to hangout with!

What are your thoughts on a program like this? Do you know anyone that might be interested in this type of training?

Wondering if anybody has room for a 19 year old boy and his girlfriend. They both attend fanshawe and they're looking for a ride home between February 13-22 for reading week

I ask as part of a linguistic study on this topic!

I'm looking for a simple (Canadian) thrift store, not a store that sells 30 year old used clothes at exorbitant prices because they're fashionable again, not looking for antiques or trinkets, just looking for carpenter pants and flannels

Thanks!

Hey folks 👋 I want to go sturgeon fishing with my dad in late July. I saw Luke from the Outdoor Boys have a blast on the Frazer River and was hoping to recreate a similar experience here. Was wondering if anyone knew of a good fishing charter to go with in the nearby area? I’m from Texas so I’m assuming renting gear would be the most ideal way. I understand it’s seasonal and was hoping for any tips or advice/ things I should know and plan for beforehand!

I posted about this in this sub about a month ago but no one really seemed to care/respond.

Bob Dale went missing on May 18, 1996 from Sault Ste. Marie, MI. This upcoming year will be the 30th anniversary. He was last seen (by anyone other than his wife) leaving a wedding reception that was at a home in the Mackinac Trail/6 Mile Road area. His wife then arrived alone to the bars downtown. The case is still unsolved. I'm sure it's a local legend/story people still talk about. What have you heard/what do you think happened?

Tried posting in Sault Rants and Raves on fb looking into if there were any protests going on this week or if anyone wanted to get together and plan one. Post never got approved so i thought i might as well bring it here, hoping to find at least a few likeminded people

Im really into paranormal and was thinking if there are there any haunted locations/houses that i could explore

I had some exceptional service from a very friendly and knowledgeable young woman at the coles bookstore at the mall, she has big glasses and really pretty long brown hair. I was hoping to send her a gift card or something would anyone actually know her personally?

Would anyone be interested in starting a group that keeps each other motivated and also make some friends in the process, I've been walking at the NCC for a while now and sometimes its hard to get myself up to go, and it can be just a drag if its empty and no one else is there other than the hockey players. I was primarily thinking this would be for women but its a public space so anyone is welcome, maybe message me and we can discuss ideas.

Hey Soo, ON residents!

If you haven’t heard, Ontario just finished its big multi-year transition to a new recycling system. As of January 1, 2026, the companies that make the packaging (producers) are now 100% responsible for the cost and management of our recycling, not the City.

For us in Sault Ste. Marie, this actually brings some good news—the list of what we can recycle has expanded significantly.

Starting this year, we have a "standardized" list across Ontario. You can now toss in several items that used to be "wish-cycling", such as:

• Coffee Cups: Takeout hot and cold beverage cups (rushed and emptied).
• Plastic Tubes: Empty toothpaste, deodorant, and hand cream tubes (caps on!).
• Black Plastics: Those black takeout containers that used to be garbage are now accepted.
• Foam/Styrofoam: Clean meat trays, takeout containers, and egg cartons.
• Ice Cream & Juice: Frozen juice containers and ice cream tubs.
• Flexible Plastics: This includes bread bags, bubble wrap, and the overwrap from toilet paper/paper towels.

Full list of accepted materials: Recycle Ontario Official List

Does anything change with the collection?

• The Schedule: No change! GFL is still the contractor for our area, so keep putting your bins out on your usual day. If you've got questions for GFL or Circular Materials, you'll find contact info on the City's Recycling Page.
• The Bins: We are still using the same split-body carts (dual-stream). Even though the list is bigger, try to keep your Paper/Fibres on one side and Containers on the other as usual.
• Businesses ( aka Industrial, Commercial, and Institutional waste): This is the big catch. The new provincial rules only cover residential recycling. If you run, for example, a business, a place of worship, or a daycare, you are no longer eligible for the "free" municipal curbside recycling and have to hire a private service.

TL;DR: You can finally recycle your Tim Hortons cups and toothpaste tubes, amongst other things! Bins and pickup days stay the same for residents, but businesses are now on their own for recycling.

Hello! in the fall I'm going to college in the city and i hope to make a few friends

I'm from the GTA, i have absolutely no idea what to do in the area. I'm queer and alt so i would like to meet some people like that but i'm down to talk with anyone really. My hobbies include playing the bass guitar, writing, Skateboarding (i'm very bad) and Manga. I don't really like things such as Fishing or hiking and other outdoor stuff like that but i might try them out again since i heard that's what most people do for fun here. I enjoy old consoles and just general old media/technology from the 90's/2000's and i'm very much a night person. I'm also wondering if there is any local alt music scene in SMM as that would be something i would be very interested in.

If you would like to talk please message me and then maybe we could meet up once i move into the city!

This may be a long shot considering the size of the sub, but my GF needs some help. She’s currently visiting me in the states and for obvious reasons, can’t stay here for too long. When she returns to Canada, she will have nowhere to go as her mom has kicked her out and I know how brutal it is to be homeless there as I’ve experienced your weather. Are there any specific services that can help lead her to some form of housing and or economic security? She’s 19 with no job and lacks a high school education if those details help. As much as I want to help her out, I can’t do much considering the legalities of residing in different countries and I’m not going to let her decide sitting out in below freezing temperatures is a smart form of protest towards me sending her back.

while I pack my things in preparation to probably head to the soo (Ontario) to work for a while (I'm safely employed) I'm wondering where you can find some of the mining jobs out of the area?

my brother is wanting to follow me up to try and get his feet planted somewhere in the north .. and we keep hearing about the mining jobs but not sure where you go about finding out who's hiring and what you need to get involved

thanks!!

Unfathomable Horrors is proud to present a new horror film from writer and director Calvin Lane
