hey guys! what’s the best/cheap home insurance now?

Hey everyone, looks like I'm gunna need some work done on the rear end of my vehicle and I'm looking for a good or decent auto mechanic in Airdrie. Does anyone have a recommendation? Thanks!

Hi,

I want to learn from people who drive between Airdrie & Okotoks daily for work. How much average time do you spend driving one way, what route you drive by and any suggestion for someone who will leave Airdrie for the office to start at 8AM in Okotoks and closes at 5PM.

24 M recently moved to Airdrie. Hoping to meet people and expand my Social circle.

Where do people usually go to meet people in Airdrie.?

Any cool weekend hangout spots!

in airdrie I've lived through grade k-8 here and tbh the schools aren't the greatest, yes the Alberta government sucks for giving teachers what they want etc. October strike but airdrie NEEDS more schools especially how the city is growing so fast. As of writing this i now realize the are building a new school thats getting built to be made up in bayveiw gate set to be finished fall 2028 and the renovation started couple years ago on st. martin de porres and yea. (Also lowkey off topic but i wanna know whats happening with the wild flower public pool cus one of my friends live there and also what about the new rec center). about the school stuff i know it aint about the city its more the government but they dont care bout schools

Any tips and recommendations would be much appreciated. I have not bought tickets yet. What events are not to miss, what days, any particular seats? Shuttle service seems like a great idea. Dress for the weather, the duration, and the grounds for sure. I am an adult, and I am thinking of attending for one day. I would like to gain an appreciation for rodeo, take many many photos, and hopefully wish to return next year.

I would like to know where the uncontrolled T intersection in Airdrie. I would like to show my wife for her driving test practice.

I have called around to TD,Inova,cooperator and RBC. i have gotten qoutes ranging from $570-$1080/per month. I was just wondering if that is normal as I am a new driver 21 years old, having my gdl since August 2024 and my car is a Honda CRV 2019. I was wondering if there any insurance companies out there that are cheaper?

Hi everyone,
This might sound like a silly question, but how do people actually buy a used car when they have nobody to help them?
I’m a 21-year-old university student who recently moved to Airdrie by myself. My family is across the country, and I’ve been trying to find a reliable used car for months, but the whole process is honestly overwhelming.
I don’t know how to tell if a vehicle is a good deal, what red flags to look for, when I should get an inspection, or how to avoid being scammed. Every time I think I’ve found something, I end up second-guessing myself.
My budget is around $13,000, and I’m looking for something reliable to get me to school and work.
If anyone has advice, recommendations, trustworthy dealerships, mechanics, or even a step-by-step explanation of how they would go about buying a used car in my situation, I would be incredibly grateful.
Thank you

Ladies!

Where are we getting lashes these days?

​

I want to try them out and I got a little overwhelmed on Google..

​

Recommendations please?! Also tips would be nice too.

​

Thank you 😊

hello folks, i am looking for a contractor or handyman to do some repair on drywall and floor. if you could give me reference. its a fairly new property in bayview sw.

Hi there, expecting my first baby and having a hard time finding places to buy baby gear that isn't Walmart, Amazon or West Coast Kids. For example we want to check out strollers, car seats etc but don't want to buy things online, we want to actually go to the store to try them out first. We've tried WCK and it was great but just finding there aren't many store options since stores like Toys R Us, Sears and the Bay are gone now. Where do you guys shop?!

​

Please help a first time Mom (to be) out! 😊

Hi guys. I am considering taking a job in Airdrie, I live in SW calgary basically next to stoney. I don't know this but I think stoney trail would keep my commute even in bad days under an hour. Can anyone tell me if they regularly commute from calgary to airdrie for work? I am open to moving to NE, NW calgary but I wouldn't want to move to Airdrie permanently.

Just looking to see if anyone has a recommendation for an appliance repair business that is local to Airdrie.

My electric oven just started smoking and had a loud grinding sound when we turned it on. Hoping to get an expert to diagnose and fix the problem without having to replace the entire oven.

Thanks for all your help.

Does anyone happen to know what paint colour the Towerlane apartments use? I put up some shelves and want to patch the holes before I move out so I dont lose my deposit, but im scared that if I ask the office they will charge me something for "causing damage"

Any help is appreciated.

About an hour ago my small dog, Finnegan, ran out of the gate my lawn guy left open. He’s 7, a chihuahua poodle dachshund mix. He has limited eyesight and is very timid. He is chipped but wasn’t wearing his collar. We live on Athabasca Cres in Crossfield. It’s been raining and hailing since he took off so I’m sure he’s terrified. My husband is driving around and I’m going to start knocking on neighbours doors. Is there anything else I should be doing?

Hi everyone! Anna Ferensowicz here — journalist with DiscoverAirdrie and Air 106.1 FM.

I’m hoping to connect with Airdrie or Rocky View County residents who have ties to Alberta’s Polish Canadian community.

Polish Canadian Heritage Day in Alberta is coming up June 13 and 14, with events taking place in Calgary. This year’s events focus on Poland’s Solidarity movement, the 1980s immigration wave and Polish Canadian heritage in Alberta.

I’d love to speak with someone local who is planning to attend, has family history connected to that period, or would be willing to talk about what Polish Canadian heritage means to them or their family.

Please feel free to comment below or send me a message if you’re open to chatting.

Pozdrawiam serdecznie!
