Good day,
I posted this on the Durham forum, but got little results. I'm going to be moving to Peterborough soon and will be looking for a job there. I work in Toronto now and the drive back and forth would likely be too much. Also, I'm worried my car will break down on me, leaving me stranded with no means to work. If anyone can PM me with job opportunities in or around Peterborough, links to sites, anything that can help, it would be greatly appreciated. My only concern is medical benefits. I'm a type 1 diabetic. If it helps, I've worked mainly in manufacturing.
Sincerely,
Slithery
 
A couple of questions:
1) Any particular reason you're moving to peterborough?
2) What kind of work in "manufacturing"? Maintenance, assembly line, material handling?
3) How old's your car? I know (an insane person I might add) who used to travel back and forth to Yonge and Eg from Peterborough every day (she lived with her parents and didn't want to pay rent). If you maintain it and your job here pays well enough you COULD do the commute but IMO that'd be insane.

Peterborough's not a bad town, but the last time I was there, the two big employers had closed up shop (OMC and DeLaval). I think Quaker Oats is still there however.....

You could always do a search on Monster.ca and see what's happening there.....
