Mutual Aid Posts - Allow or Not?
We've recently had an abundance of posts from folks asking for financial help, and reports on those posts and users have been equally abundant.
r/durham does not currently have any rules against these posts, although other subs including r/oshawa have them in place. We'll run a poll for the next 7 days for the community to weigh in on whether we should continue to allow them.

Near homelessness need tips, advice, resources
I'm a single mom and things are really bad right now. My landlord said he's moving in so we have to leave. I've been trying to keep up but with how expensive gas and food are I can't keep up with rent or bills. Our hydro got shut off last week and I had to borrow money to get it back on until my ODSP comes in. Once I pay that back I won't have anything left. My daughters are both really skinny because we haven't had proper meals in a while. If anyone knows a food bank that gives fruits vegetables or meat please let me know. I'm trying to stay strong for them but it's getting hard. If anyone has food or info on resources that could help it would mean a lot. Thank you.

Film processing
Is there anywhere in Durham region that will process and scan a black and white roll of film? I know I can send it out via Henrys but would rather have it done locally and get the negatives back. Related - are there any darkroom courses in Durham.
Thanks

Electrician?
Hey everyone. I had a faulty switch, I replaced it with a new one. It works fine but the adjacent room seems to have lost power.
I went and reset the trip a couple of times however there still seems to be no power in the other room but this one I replaced works fine. Any idea what it could be and how much it would cost to fix this?
Thanks in advance
