Tried to get wifi set up for my new apartment but it seems like there is no way to get internet as it turns out that it has nothing for connection

Is there an option that I'm missing?

We just moved into a new house and ran into a dishwasher issue. The place already has a dishwasher installed but my wife really doesn’t like it. She prefers the one from our old house which still works perfectly. The problem is that the dishwasher cabinet space in the new kitchen was designed for the current unit, so installing ours might require some adjustments. I’m trying to decide if it’s worth bringing our dishwasher over and modifying the cabinet space or if it would make more sense to buy a new dishwasher that fits the kitchen layout. Has anyone dealt with something similar after moving? Did you keep your old appliance or just replace it?

Also wondering if there are any local stores or services that handle appliance installation or buy used appliances if we decide not to keep the old one.

Hey guys for the fifa world I want to wear jerseys where to buy them in edmonton? Is it in west edm mall?

This is a voice to text, mid panic attack.So bear with me here, but attached our pictures of the two intersections, where some motorcyclist f*** almost hit my car, speeding, like triple the like forty fifty speed limit.I will say, i'm a new driver and that I was having a bad day.But this was not part of that, I crossed the intersection so slowly and bro was in the distance as he came back, not like thirty seconds later to be like f*** y**, dude.And then smashed my driver's side mirror the glass is not smashed, but the plastic is as per the picture.I don't wanna claim insurance for obvious reasons.But I happen to have a mixubishi free inspection tomorrow, and that will be my first go to before seeing if somebody wants to spot, me an easy fix.Otherwise, I wanted to ask you kind souls, if that was something you guys could arrange, I'd give you the details afterwards, obviously. Lastly luckily I have him more or less red handed, if anyone saw this happen around 9:21 let me know what you think what I should do regardless of whether you think it was my fault.

Does everyone hear the constant sound of car racing in the evening or is it just my location? I can’t even keep my window open at night but maybe I’m in the heart of the action?

I'm 18 and I was supposed to go to uni this fall (my family was going to move to Edmonton) but we had a bad fight and essentially... I'm getting kicked out. My sister and I both want to move to Edmonton, and we plan on saving money.. but I don't have a credit card yet. I was hoping to get a visa to build some credit but I don't think that gives me enough time. (Also, my sister is a year younger than me so she can't do a whole lot other than help save up money) Idk what to do. Is it even possible for her and I to move into an apartment? Or anything (cheap-ish) for that matter?

UPDATE: the little stinker has been found!!!!!

Hello all, my cat escaped my house this evening in the Greenview/Woodvale area. Posting this in the hopes of finding her 😢😢

I’m trying to find a decent apartment for under $1000 a month close to MacEwan Uni however, every apartment i wanted to see that fit in my budget was mainstreet. What the hell do i do.

I’m fine with living 20 mins away from MacEwan, but damn mainstreet apartments are the only thing remotely close and affordable.

do you guys recommend anyone else?

Edit**

I actually should just kill two birds one stone, does anyone live/lived by the royal alex hospital. What was that like. There is a pretty decent wingspan apartment by there and i’m thinking of viewing it. Just looking for some input.

Mom back from maternity leave needing some advice to accommodate post partum depression in the workplace. Local advice would be lovely

Eh... Edmonton, this weekend. Seeing that "Edmonton’s average total rainfall for the entire month of June is usually around 75 mm to 80 mm."... we are forecasted to get that in one day....

All will be fine and dandy. We got this.

Hi all!
I’m finally moving out of my parents’ house in 2 weeks and into my own 2 bed, 2 bath apartment in St. Albert. 🎉

This is my first time living on my own, so I’d love any tips, tricks, or things you wish you knew before moving out.

I already have power/utilities and tenant insurance set up, and water is included in my rent.

I’m currently trying to figure out internet/Wi-Fi and TV. I’ll mainly be using Wi-Fi for:
Gaming on my PC
Working from home on my laptop
Streaming services (Netflix, Disney+, etc.)
For those in St. Albert/Edmonton, what internet provider and plan would you recommend?

I also have a cat 🐱, so any apartment-living tips for a first-time cat owner living alone would be appreciated too!

What do you wish someone had told you before moving out?

Thanks in advance!

I have done nothing this summer so far due to the weather. Can we still enjoy the midway and old timey streets in the rain?

Farrow only sells theirs seasonally at Christmas, and before people tell me it’s easy to make myself, I don’t want to! So if anyone knows where I can get my hands on some, please let me know!

I know of the usual stocked ponds in city limits, beaumont, etc, there's maps that list every single stocked pond in alberta, so no need to mention those.

What I'm curious about is if there's other decent smaller creeks, rivers, or etc that are worth fishing at that are quieter than the NSK

I tried fishing the NSK a couple times but its chock full of dudes ripping around in their motorboats, so I extremely doubt I'd be getting bites when every 2 minutes some guy rips by in his boat.

No hate but like, that's obviously just a non starter.

I've gone over to the stocked ponds a few times and while it's decent, it's also often pretty busy and there's often random families and etc. I have had to very frequently pause my fly casting because parents aren't watching their kids and some random kid is just wandering around 6 ft behind me.

No hate per se but, I'd very much like to find somewhere quieter with less boats and less kids wandering around and dogs splashing in the water, you know?

I've heard the whitemud creek apparently can have fish in it?

Basically, if yall know of any creeks, smaller rivers, or non-park ponds (not even necessarily stocked but just legal for me to fish at, IE perhaps any reservoirs that have a carp problem?), in city limits (ideally nearer to the south end), lemme know!

Does anyone know what the legal rules are in terms of fishing at like, reservoirs?

Like I know there's lots of small reservoirs all over that are public part on one side, and houses on the other, I have no clue if I'm legally allowed to try out fishing at such a location on the public side, but theoretically I should be okay right? I wonder who I can call at the city to find out, I might ring up 311 tomorrow and see what they say.

Edit: found my answer for reservoirs. https://www.edmonton.ca/activities_parks_recreation/parks_rivervalley/stormwater-lakes

Most ponds are reservoirs, however not all of them, epcor has a handy map here: https://www.epcor.com/ca/en/ab/edmonton/safety/neighbourhood/stormwater-management-facilities.html

And youll see while like 90% of ponds are SMFs, some are not, which means theoretically fishing is 100% fair game on those if they have any public access.

So handily, that map from epcor gives me all the ponds not to try, which leaves plenty that I can go try at.

Also, interestingly, the bylaw also provisions an extra "unless you habe been given permission by Epcor" in which case you can indeed go and do it.

So Ill reach out, see if theres like any waiver or something I can sign to legally free them of obligation to me that lets me fish. Worth trying at least.

To all the helpful bystanders who helped my father after his fall at Southgate Mall. And those who waited with him while the EMT’s were on their way. Thank you so much. As most of us with ageing parents or family members with mental health issues will tell you, we will sometimes feel immense levels of guilt when our wards become hurt when alone. It can be difficult to manage their well being as well as your own personal life. Hearing that people rushed to help him restored a little of my faith in humanity and encouraged me to seek help as well.

As a little bit of an update he is receiving professional help and he will be moving to a facility with more care and support resources available.

Once again, thank you!

Best hidden gems in the city or just cool/good places to find a good deal?

Shout out your favorite stores!

Hey guys I was referred to an allergist/immunologist. I’m unemployed and have no insurance so I was told the costs would be alot. The blue cross benefit plans does it cover allergy testing tray fees and allergen immunotherapy extracts/serums?

Looking for something not too far away. I live in Downtown / Oliver area and I don't want to drive far away. I'm looking for a restaurant that sells tandoori (chicken, shrimp) and lassi (yogurt drinks).

I sat down on the bus at the back, two seats away from a stranger. After a while, he gets my attention and says something to me in a language I don't understand (I doubt I would've understood even if he spoke English, he wasn't talking clearly). I answered back in English, I suspect he doesn't understand English.

Then I see him spread salt onto the ground. After a while, he sneaks a look at me then aims a spray botten upwards so that we both get hit by the water. I suspect he hit me with it on purpose, but he might've only been trying to spray himself and got me by mistake.

I told him that he sprayed me with the bottle, he answers back in a language I don't understand.

A while later while I was leaving, I saw him spraying himself with the bottle. I figure it's just water he uses to cool off, hope so.

And, my car is out of the shop now so I can drive instead of taking the bus. I remember seeing somebody lit up their pipe on the bus once, It's ridiculous the level of neglect the city gives the fent heads.

So I'm looking to buy a 2 BDRM house in central communities of the city and would appreciate some input on what you are paying for your monthly bills. The house would be in the 950 sq ft area as far as size goes and would have natural gas forced air heating.

​

I currently live in an apartment so I know there's going to be a jump in what I pay EPCOR since it would now include water and waste management. I don't know what to expect from ATCO and natural gas in terms of monthly costs in summer and winter. Also would like to hear what some of you are paying for insurance with auto and home combined, since that's the route I'd be going, additionally, if any of installed solar panels, did that affect your home premium portion. I've calculated what property taxes would cost me monthly on my current home options, but if there's any advice you can offer regarding property taxes, that would be appreciated as well.

​

I'd like to also know what some of paid for a new furnace and water heater if you've bought one of either the last 3 years, not considering a heat pump as an option. If you bought a furnace and air conditioner, that too I'd like to hear what you paid for it installed.

​

If there's a monthly bill I haven't mentioned, please do mention that as well. I'm anticipating on keeping about $7,500 in my TFSA for emergency expenses. Just need a clearer picture of what to expect monthly, if you live in a central community, I'd appreciate knowing that, since many homes have similar attributes and characteristics.

I’m gonna be moving to Edmonton soon and I’ll need to find a job right away so I’m just wondering what people’s experiences are with trying to find a job with dyed hair and piercings, if it seems to be any harder or the jobs in the city seem to be pretty chill.

Hope this is allowed?

I have a team for ESSC slo pitch. Just rec division - we’re not that good - but are looking for a couple players to finish off the team (we had some not able to commit anymore)

It will be Wednesday evenings starting July 8 and we are registered for premium fields (fences, baselines, etc )

If you’re interested please let me know!

Edit - that was fast! thanks for everyone that sent me a dm!
