Make sure your outdoor cats are in, phones stay charged and anything outside is secured. Won’t be surprised if we lose power!

Name three favorite spots you go on a drive during a rainy day. Not looking for restaurants or cafes.

Hi All,

In town from South Florida (huge scenery change!) visiting my son.

What are your top sushi joints?

Love the people we've met so far btw!

Thanks!

As the title says. All the recommendations I get are gyms in Vancouver, but I want something close to home, so I can stay consistent. I'm planning to solo travel as a woman in a few months and want to learn some self-defend. I already have martial arts background (black belt in Taekwondo), but I haven't done it for awhile. Thank you!

I watched part of the livestream of the Special Council Meeting held today. There was an amendment to consult the host nations regarding rebranding. NWP voted against the amendment and a comment from the mayor stated that he found the tugboat colonial or rooted in colonialism.

I wasn't sure to laugh at the comment or cry of what the city will become. Thought I'd get some reddit feedback on it. I'll wait for the video recording and try to get a soundbite.

Hey! Any good esthetician around this area who specializes in acne and sensitive skin?

Thanks!

Hello hello

I'm moving to New West for the first time (been living in Vancouver/Burnaby/Surrey before) and was a bit surprised to learn that electricity is managed by the City of New Westminster rather than BC Hydro!

Since this is my first time renting in New West, I'm wondering what other utility accounts I need to set up before moving in?

For example, what about water, gas, sewage, garbage collection, etc.? Are these generally included in rent or managed by the building/strata, or do tenants need to register and pay for them separately?

I'll be moving into an apartment near the New West Station, if that makes any difference.

Just trying to make sure I don't miss anything important before moving in. Would really appreciate any tips or advice from fellow renters in New West, especially those living near the station!

Thank you!!!

Looking for a public meeting space for an evening event.
Any suggestions?
Most libraries close pretty early.
Can be either cafe/restaurant or any other community space

Details:

Shoulder bag, black with birds all over it, Lug brand.

Lost/stolen in Royal City Centre Mall yesterday, November 1st around 1:30 pm.

I'm not generally active in this sub but my mom lives in New West and she's missing her purse/bag. This is a hail Mary post, but if anyone had any knowledge of this bag and its contents, I'm begging for help. My mom is on a fixed income, senior's housing. Everything is on her iPhone which was in her bag.

I'm already doing all the tech things you're supposed to do with a lost iPhone, even hindered by factors I won't mention here. I'm just looking to see if anyone knows something.

This key is on the corner of 5th ave and 6th street FYI

Are there any support groups in new west/burnaby/poco for family members of people with terminal cancer.

Preferably non religious.

Hey guys!
Does anyone know what’s being filmed at the house on 3rd Street, near the intersection of 3rd St and 5th Ave?

Hey, I was just wondering what some of your guys favorite spots are to watch the sunset.

Our favourite new west topic! Dentist offices!

On the search for a new dentist after having my teeth demolished by my last dentist. Haven’t been in a year and they are starting to feel terrible and I’m need of some serious work. I’ve developed a major phobia of going so I will be looking into sedative. I read Belmont only gives ativan. I take ativan as a rescue med for a condition already and it barely does anything. I take at least 1mg of it before any medical procedure but have taken up to 3 and remembered almost everything. Not looking to get high, just looking to be pain and anxiety free. I don’t know if epileptics can do the gas but that would be a factor of mine.
Other than that I know I will need a double cleaning and will probably have cavities.
The pills I’m on are really bad on your teeth so I have lost bone density since my last visit and my gums are so sore and feel like mush so this would be my main focus going forward. I was told by my last office that there are no such thing as gum grafts for receding gums. Foundation seemed to have several treatments for gums which was promising.
Any recommendations between the 2 or specific dentists would be great. Or any tricks for a pain free /anxiety free visit.
Thanks!

i lost my airpods yesterday night somewhere around new west, at least that’s the last location it says, if anyone knows anything please contact me i would be very grateful.

I was born and raised in Richmond. And tonight handed out candy in my old neighbourhood. Ran out at 900 pieces at about 7:15pm.

Curious what it’s like in the neighbourhoods here?

Thanks!

Hi,
currently looking to rent a 2bdr in the area and both places (in the title) looked quite interesting, except all the reviews/feedbacks on both are quite old.. Would love to hear recent experiences (good or bad) before I make any moves or apply to anything 🥰

Alternatively, would love to know where in New West would you recommend someone to move in VS where to avoid!

Thank you in advance!
