Children live on this street. People like you speed down this street frequently, despite the elementary school and speed bumps. You wrapped your car around a pole tonight, you could have killed someone. You could have killed yourself. AT MINIMUM, you inconvenienced a whole block when you took our power out at around 11:50pm tonight. I don’t know if you were drinking, or just a reckless driver in general, but I hope you know a stranger almost risked walking barefoot through active downed power lines in an attempt to save your life tonight, after you crashed and flipped your car onto the driver side. Was running from the cops worth it? You left your shoe behind, by the way. Grateful you’re alive, even if you shouldn’t have walked away from tonight’s accident uninjured.

Anyways y’all, please drive safe and if you know someone with mysterious injuries, tip off APD. This person almost killed someone tonight, and then ran after realizing the damage he caused.

Idk they’re prolly in a middle of breaking up or idk, just let me sleep plz

Hey Abbotsford,

With the federal election coming up, I've been keeping a close eye on the local campaigns in both our ridings — the traditional Abbotsford riding and the newly configured Mission–Matsqui–Fraser Canyon — and I’ve gotta say… where is the Liberal Party?

There’s basically zero visible ground game here. No signs. No door-knocking. Their social media pages are either inactive or completely outdated (some haven’t been updated since the last election cycle). Even trying to find out who’s actually running has been a challenge — and that’s not how you win votes or build any sort of trust with the community.

Meanwhile, other parties (especially the Conservatives and NDP) are out there, visible, and active. Whether you support them or not, at least they’re making an effort to show up.

I get that Abbotsford has traditionally been a Conservative stronghold, but the demographics are shifting, and people want to hear real ideas — not just silence. Not to mention this election it appears the right vote will be split 3 ways with DeJong

Is anyone else noticing this? Has anyone seen anything from the Liberals in either riding? Genuinely curious if I’ve just missed it, or if they’ve basically given up on this part of the map.

I have sent out a few emails to the riding association and the party and heard radio silence back.

They don't even have a candidate site for local donations yet lol.

Edit: If the Liberal Party isn’t able, or won't engage with voters in Abbotsford, then let’s at least have the conversation here. I’ll be checking back on this thread over the next few days and I’m more than willing to chat with anyone — regardless of where you land politically. Whether you're a lifelong supporter of a party, a long-time Conservative supporter or still trying to make up your mind, let's talk about what matters to our community.

There are over 22,000 people in this subreddit — that's a pretty solid base for a real discussion.

Hello valley friends. Am looking to support the winning canucks team. When looking at the arena seat map, which end do they shoot at twice? Left (section 113/114) or right (section 104/105)? Looking forward to the Arty Party! Go baby Canucks go!

I'm looking for a hair stylist in the Abbotsford, Mission, or Chilliwack area who is experienced in cutting curly hair. I haven't got a proper cut in years, just trim at home. Now that my hair is longer, I'm looking for someone who can help me figure out how to style my hair too. Any recommendations please help a girl out 🙏

Does anyone know an affordable place to get my cat’s teeth cleaned. I tried at dash and dogs but she was uncooperative so now she needs to go under anesthesia to get it done. Any recommendations with price, experience and review would be helpful. Thank you!!

Does anyone know where this place is in Abbotsford ???

The city's been losing jobs for a while, but the tariffs seemed to really hit last month.

I was wondering if there are any parks or bench spots with a view over the city or just a nice place to watch the sunset?

Last year I was unsuccessful to grow my chili plants from seeds, so I was wondering if anyone sells seedlings of chili plants like carolina reapers, Trinidad scorpions, white naga, etc. I know there's a guy in vancouver, but that's a bit too out of the way

Incroyable!

So I just moved from Calgary to Abbotsford to start a new job with Fraser Health. Super new to Abbotsford (been here for less than one month).
The moving part went pretty well i.e., settling into my new apartment and job. So that side of things is going fine.

Since I don't have any family here, it gets a bit boring and lonely. Not much to do on weekends as well. So, I just wanted to get some ideas and suggestions around meeting new people, and ideally make some friends here.
So people who have lived here long enough, any advice, and suggestions for me? What to do, where to go really? I would greatly appreciate your input and tips.

P.S. I am a 31-year old male, working with Fraser Health.

In what world is Mike de Jong considered principled?

Just looking for some more information on the conservative candidate for the abbotsford-south langley candidate, his website doesn't say anything on his beliefs and his "resume" is pretty bleak. What's your opinion on him being 25? I think younger ( low 30s) is great. , but 25 may be to young., I am surprised he is conservative. Considering he is in a ethnic minority ( south Asian ) I've never understood how someone could stand with the cons when most cons are so brutal and rude to most minorities. Just doesn't click in my mind, but hey, if your a conservative and in a minority group, I'd love to hear why!

Are there any ladies (ideally in their 20s or 30s) that would be interested in playing pickleball with me (23f)? I’m trying to find friends to play pickleball with in Abbotsford. I’m not someone who feels confident going up to a stranger and asking if I can play with them. I played with some family on a vacation so I have some skills but I’m still new to the sport. Thank you!

does anyone know any doctor that is taken new patients i think it’s time for me to switch to a new family doctor preferably female but honestly don’t even care at this point

A whole new world!
