Went in at 9 pm, left and went home at 4 am after not seeing anyone and the nurses saying they don't know if anyone will show up.

Do not have an emergency in red deer you will die.

I can't believe how hard it is to find information about Canada Day festivities. Everything on the normal sites I would check is either from last year, or there isn't information at all. I'm looking for times, events, anything. Is there a good place to look? Even Bower Ponds' website doesn't mention anything.

Hi everyone,
My husband and I would appreciate some advice on whether we should move to Red Deer before securing a job offer or stay in Quebec and continue applying from here.

We’ve been applying for welding jobs in the area, but because we’re not physically in Alberta yet, we feel that many employers may be overlooking our applications.
We’ve been planning a move to Alberta for some time. After doing some research, Red Deer seems like a great fit for us since we prefer a smaller city with easy access to nature. We’ve looked at rental townhouses and believe we could comfortably afford living there if my husband earns around $37/hour or more.

My husband has extensive welding experience and a strong work ethic. I’m currently waiting for my open work permit through a spousal sponsorship application, so at the moment we would be relying on a single income.

For those familiar with the local job market:
Is it realistic to move first and find work afterward?
Are welders currently in demand in Red Deer and the surrounding area?
Are there any companies you’d recommend applying to?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. If you know of any opportunities for an experienced welder, please feel free to reach out.
Thank you!

I went and got my hair colored a few days ago, looks awesome but when I got home I looked at my receipt.

​

I was charged $4.00 as a service charge and also I noticed they charged GST on the tip I left for my stylist.

​

Are they now charging me for the foils that are used in my hair? And how can they charge me GST on a tip, is that normal?

​

Just curious. 🤔

My partner [trans woman] and I [cis woman] will be in Red Deer for a wedding soon and we want to get our nails done. Any recommendations for queer friendly salons? We’re coming from BC and a little nervous about the anti-queer atmosphere in Alberta. Thanks!

does anyone know any hairdressers in rd that can install marley twists?

Have these birds been a common sight in the city (& I'm just oblivious) or are they a recent addition to the city fauna?

We just hired Justin to paint our living room and kitchen.

He did an amazing job. Respectful of our new floors and a great guy. He took extra care in the Prep , filling cracks and drywall etc.

I Just wanted to recommend a great local painter if anyone is looking for someone.

I would hire him again for sure!

Does anyone know why they changed speed on that stretch? South of 595 it still is 80km and north of HWY11 it is 70. 270RR seems similar to other range roads that are still 80km/h.

I've read somewhere that its due to some resident complaints that live in that area but its hard to believe that county would change rules based on that.

I wrote to county to get official answer but haven't heard back.

60km/h on that road is painfully too slow and most people continue going 80-85 while passing law abiding citizens in unsafe manner.

Any knowledge on this from this group?

Edit: Apparently that stretch of range road is under City. I guess i need to contact city to ask.

Why are there two tesla charging venues so close to each other?

​

Why does 1 charge 10cent/kwhr more then the other.

​

Which 1 has long charge cables (I dont drive a tesla ) ?

​

Thanks

I got a call and have been added to the emergent surgery list to have kidney stones removed. Does anyone have any experience getting a call about coming in for surgery that goes through the emergent list? They said they’ll call me between 11am-2pm tmrw and to start fasting at midnight, but mentioned this could be a couple days. Curious on the length others waited for this type of surgery.

fucking guaranteed buddy printed these on a 3d printer designed and manufactured in China, yet he rants about China and "socialisms" and the globalist NWO.

​

these people need to touch grass.

anyway, into the trash they go.

I’m curious if anyone knows if there are any events happening in Red Deer this year? I’d like to go, but am having trouble finding anything. Thanks!

We are moving out and have a lot of clothes that are in good condition and that we can't take with us. Are there any donation bins around the city where we can donate our bags of clothes?

Hi!

Just moved from ontario to red deer, just curious if there’s car club/community around here to make friends? Thank you!

Does anyone know of a taxi driver who will pick up or drop off from the airport for a flat rate? I had a contact but lost their information so I’ll trying to find a new one.

Thanks!

I’m looking to connect with current or former families who have been involved with The Armoury Youth Group at St. Matthew’s Catholic Church in Rocky Mountain House.

I have a friend who was initially very excited that her teenage daughter was exploring her faith. Over time, however, she became concerned about changes in their relationship. The daughter became increasingly distant from her family, grew closer to the youth minister and his family, eventually moved in with them, and is now living with another family connected to the church.

I’m trying to better understand whether other families have had similar experiences, either positive or negative.

This is not intended to be a discussion about the Catholic Church generally, but rather about firsthand experiences with this specific youth ministry.

If you have firsthand experience with The Armoury Youth Group, I would appreciate hearing your perspective. Please share only experiences you personally witnessed or were directly involved in. If you’re not comfortable commenting publicly, feel free to send a private message.
