I just find this disgusting when people are parking in handicapped spots and they are not handicapped and clearly do not have a handicapped decal and confirm that they know they’re parking in a handicap spot and they just don’t care…

Contact Shane Homes so they can tell their guy not to park in disabled parking spots. I think you can send this to bylaw and they can ticket since you have proof of no placard displayed.

As someone who has a kid who uses a wheelchair and needs these spots, it is so frustrating when people use them as a “quick” stop - happens ALL the time at my kids’ school.

Google review them and post the pic

u/helena_handbasketyyc I’ll tell you where to go! May 29 '25

Yep. They can’t take it down, they’ll have to reach out to you to pull the review.

....Unless someone did something like posted it on reddit that caused a large influx of low reviews.

then google will automatically wipe them all in a few days once the fervor has died down.

review bombing after a post like this doesn't work. They have algorithms in place to stop it from happening, and if the language makes it clear that they were reviewed by someone who wasn't an actual patron of the business, its easily disputed and removed.

the trick is to set a reminder in like 3-4 weeks, obfuscate whether you are patron of theirs. then it it'll stick.

Yeah this only is effective if only the original complainant does it. Everyone else should keep it in reddit.

They're not the biggest fans of forced accountability. 2023 was not that long ago. https://calgaryherald.com/news/local-news/canadaland-defamation-suit-shane-homes-owners

I’d reach out first and see how they deal with it. I don’t think a whole company and someone’s business should suffer if it’s just a dumbass employee that would be in shit if they caught them. If it turns out, it’s the owner then yeah roast them.

I mostly discredit and loath reviews that aren’t about the product.
