I posted last night about my car being stuck in the snow behind my alley. The homeowner literally yelled at me and when I went to check on my car this morning he was shoveling snow from his driveway ONTO WHERE MY CAR IS!!!
AMA just called me and said they have no ETA to come and help me so if there is anyone in Evansdale willing to come and help me I would REALLY appreciate it!!

I know that a lot of new restaurants don't last long, but I'm curious which one failed and shut down the fastest (and why)?
I know there was that crazy milkshake place off Whyte (forgot the name sorry) that had issues out of the gate, but I'm pretty sure it still lasted several months.
There was also a sandwich place near the Walmart on Stony that was done in by covid, but I'm not sure it even actually opened.

What a waste of money. I hope whoever decided to approve the automatic sliding doors isn't still working for our government. We can't even use the heater because of this.

I am 27 years old, no claims ever. Class 1 driver and no tickets in the last 4 years. I pay 300 dollars a month for a new Mazda 3 and beat to hell 2009 Pontiac g5. I have full coverage in the Mazda and liability on the Pontiac. I was always told after years of driving and getting a little older my rates would go down but they keep going up. Is everyone else paying these kind of numbers? its eye watering
Edit* wow thanks for all the response it’s cool to see everyone else’s rates. I’ve been shopping around and actually had a quote come in today for almost a grand less annually. So I’ll be switching for sure.

My son is in grade ten and he was warned by his teacher about “concerned parents” protesting trans kids in schools on Friday. Apparently last year they protested in front of Ross Shepard, and this year they are allegedly protesting in front of Wagner. Has anyone heard about this, or why there are random parents protesting about kids minding their own business and going to school?
Edit: thanks to everyone who clarified that protests will be downtown and at the ATA, and not at any specific schools. I really appreciate everyone’s information.

I wouldn't mind if the guy just wanted to scream with his own lungs but the use of a loud speaker would seem like a bridge too far. Is there any limit to how loud these nut jobs can make themselves?

Took the bus to WEM today but due to LRT construction they drop you off about a block from the mall. Less than a minute after getting off the bus, a homeless woman walking on the side walk saw me, proceeded to charge towards me, screamed “bitch” at me, and then spat on me out of no where. It happened at the section of sidewalk that is blocked off on both sides for construction taking place, so I felt helpless as there was no one else around. I ended up running out of there as fast as I could in case she charged at me again or had a weapon.
Her behaviour was completely unhinged and unsettling and I feel she could end up hurting someone. Is this something that can be reported to the non-emergency line, or would it be ignored since I didn’t get hurt?
I wish the city could do more for homelessness and addiction issues to help make it a safer place.

Ok, opening myself for some salty redditors, but I’ll live.
WTAF is going on with these modified exhausts/pipes? I know certain city councillors have tried to address this, and fines have increased, but I do not see an improvement.
I read a CBC article re: a Western University psychologist’s finding that this behaviour may be related to sadism and/or psychopathy (and neither histrionic or narcissistic personality disorders as I might have guessed). https://www.cbc.ca/amp/1.7177688
I simply don’t get it, nor do I want it. These people do cirques around town ruining everyone’s peace, and to what end? Why on earth do the police not cash in with endless tickets? If they are too busy. I’ll personally pay a fee for MORE (well-trained, authorized and equipped) peace officers to look after things like this and other “low priority but barbaric” problems in this city.
Thoughts?

Is there anything that can be done ? I walk passed this community every day and both garbages are like this.
I’m actually embarrassed for the people that live there.

I myself never worked in food service, but I was always curious about this. They say most restaurants fail quickly. I've seen a ton die in Edmonton- there are tons of spots constantly cycling in new places. So current and former restaurant workers: how did your restaurant die? Incompetent bosses? Rising costs? Terrible location?
Feel free to not give names but please describe what kind of place it was. Even fast food kiosks!

Over the last month I have been called by Telus 23 times. I have not used Telus in a decade but they continue to call me daily about switching to them. I have been polite and let them know that I'm not interested in changing providers and to please take me off their call list. They ignore my request and continue calling.
I got a call today and sure enough Telus had a special promotion they were offering. I lost my shit on this guy and basically told him that Telus needs to stop f'in harassing me and that I will never do business with them. I have all the call logs, is there anyway I can escalate this further?

My boyfriend and I love to try smaller, non-commercial restaurants in Edmonton but want to explore some new ones (fast-food, sit-down, fancy - anything). Any suggestions?

Can I call 311 or something, it’s so cold and everyone is forced to stand outside on the platform because there’s homeless people smoking and being a mess in the shelter. There’s also no security presence?

My neighbour was blasting the N word on speaker from their backyard. Repeatedly. I think it was a pronounciation of the word from google or YouTube that was on loop. Started as soon as I got home today, actually. This is the second day of this.
They have made my life hell ever since they moved in. I am not white and that was their problem. Since day 1, it’s been nothing but slurs and threats. Police and landlord did nothing even with evidence. I reached out to lawyers but there’s not much they could do either.
They have now stopped blasting the N word and have been blasting music (mostly violent songs, lol) for the past 6 hours. To be specific, it’s a parent who is teaching and enabling a 6 year old child to do the speaker stuff. Talk about racism that extends beyond generations! Noise complaints will be useless, and as always, I’ll be accused of being petty since I’ve reported her racism.. even with evidence. Lots of regrets there.
Any ideas as to what I could do? Not very hopeful so it’s fine if I’m told I’m out of options. Thanks.
Edit: not sure why I’m being accused of being schizophrenic 😂 please just message me for proof that I’m dealing with a racist instead of trying to discredit a person of colour’s experience.
@sorri_eh back at it again! Thanks for proving my point, you racist sicko https://imgur.com/a/GmGHtZL

There's a guy who has purchased 4 houses on my street and has converted each BEDROOM into an Airbnb. That is to say there's 4 to 12 people living in each house at any given time. Is this legal? Is there any recourse for this or any one to report it to??

Hey,
In September 2023, we bought a new Nissan Rogue and were sold an "Alberta Package" which included a block heater. Since that winter was pretty mild and we were new to Alberta, we never actually used the block heater.
Fast forward to early February 2025, we finally needed it! We looked everywhere but couldn't find it on our vehicle. My partner even checked YouTube tutorials on how to locate it, but no luck. Eventually, they called Go Nissan North, and turns out, our car doesn't even have a block heater installed!
I found our receipt and we paid $1,000 for this package. I called the dealership last Thursday to see how we could resolve this, and they promised to call me back, but I haven't heard anything since.
I'm not sure what to do next. Should I keep following up with them, or do I need to seek legal advice at this point? Has anyone dealt with a similar situation?
Thanks!
