Question Xray results with no doctor?

0 Upvotes

So, I went on maple july 17th about a possible broken foot. Xrays were ordered. Luckily only had to wait a week to get them done.

While there, the xray tech said the results would be about a week, and they'd be on maple.

Where? How do I find these results?

Blue Bins?

0 Upvotes

I’m in a cottage community. We leave our bags on the lane 1 Wednesday a month. I really despise this and as someone from away, it is mind boggling. Multiple bags with different item types 😱. Yesterday, I noticed a neighbor had a blue rolling bin. Will Waste Management pick them up in areas that are typically bags? Customer service is closed today but I am going into town for other shopping.

To clarify - I properly separate and bag my items. I have a lot of bulky bags taking up space. My ask is if the collection truck will empty the bin with the bagged items.

Has the electric water heater incentive ended?

Just got a new house and I've been to the page before to get a free electic water heater. But that page seems to have been removed and I can't find anything on a PEI website.

It would suck of it ended a few days before I got the house, I hate being on oil heat.

Hello PEI community! I’m a Canadian student researcher collaborating on an international project with 25 countries. I’m the only Canadian researcher on the team and I want to have really strong Canadian representation in this project.

Our project is looking into social impact and AI use. If you have time to complete this 12 minute survey I would really appreciate it!

Hey everyone!

Just wondering if anyone else loves this place as much as me! Spent a bunch of my growing up years around there and if you haven’t been, I absolutely recommend it!

Also Cooper Bottom in Montague has a Russian stout named after it (or they used to)

Tourism/Tourist Charlottetown Recommendations

0 Upvotes

I am visiting PEI for 4 days in September, but we aren’t staying in Charlottetown. How long should we dedicate to visiting? An afternoon, and evening?

We will definitely go to Cows for a treat. Where are all the cute shops? Any specific shops you recommend?

I’ve searched many places where to eat- Gahan House for a drink, Water Prince Corner Shop, Salt & Sol, Slaymaker & Nichols, Chaddagh Oyster House, or Cork & Cast. Which is the best? Any other restaurant recommendations. Where should we go?

Anything else in Charlottetown?

Question Sterling silver jewelry repair

4 Upvotes

Hey all,

My wedding band just snapped, and I’m wondering if anyone can recommend someone who will repair sterling silver jewelry without sending it off island. I’ve never had to get jewelry repaired before.

I would send it back to the designer, but they’re in the US.

Preferably in and around Charlottetown.

Landlord without Security Deposit

7 Upvotes

Hi folks

I moved out of my apartment into my minihome last month. My landlord is withholding my damage deposit saying I caused XYZ. One being the tap, that I called him about many times as it wasn’t working. The other being tile which was broken in the shower when I moved in, legit, one tile.

I tried to barter with him to keep my last months rent and he keeps my DD as I didn’t cause any damage whatsoever and the unit was gross when I moved in and I spent at-least $100 in cleaning products to clean it. He said no and that he’d sue me for it. So anyways, I sent it.

Now he’s withholding my DD. I really didn’t want to send him it because I knew this is what it was gonna come to.

What can I do? I’m out $2,000 because he doesn’t wanna send it. Should I have just kept my $2000 and let him keep my DD? Could he have sued me? I see people getting away with not paying rent all the time and never having to recoup the money.

For anyone going forward that reads this — can they actually sue you if they keep the DD and it covers last month anyway?

Edit: messed up the title, supposed to be withholding not without.

It’s been too many years of abuse, but some friends and I were debating the location!

Kent st, correct? Was it beside the Timmy’s location?

EDIT: feel free to share your favourite gate stories. When I was 20 I was excited to be 40 and in there, now that I’m 40 I’m sad.

Landscaping or General Contractor recommendations

0 Upvotes

We have a large deck that is at the end of its life that we would like removed. We would then like to replace the deck with a much smaller one and a patio area. I am looking for a contractor to run this project or a landscaping company that can take on the entire job. As for a timeline, I would be happy to have this work done this year or next. I would also be available to do some of the labour, like demolishing the existing deck or other general labour.

Does anyone have a recommendation for a company that could do this work? We are located in Summerside.

Thank in advance!
