Hi all, my partner and I are unable to go to Rupi Kaur’s performance at the Jubilee Auditorium at 8:00 tonight. We don’t want the tickets to go to waste, so we thought we would see if someone could use them. I can transfer the tickets to you via the Ticketmaster app. Please let me know if anyone would like these tickets. Thanks! Edited to add there are two tickets available. submitted by /u/nickaral [link] [comments]

I’m 30M who’s been single for 3 years and am ready to meet my better half. I thought I found something meaningful recently on a dating app but it ended abruptly so I’m feeling a bit discouraged and figured I’d try something else. I’ve googled a a few things so far but am curious what else is out there, I’m very active and love the outdoors if that helps with any suggestion, also enjoy pubs and restaurants so am open to any kind of dating event really. Thanks for any replies 🙂 submitted by /u/ZRR28 [link] [comments]

Hello /r/calgary , This morning approximately 2-3am, my family member was arrested and had a kitten with them. I would like to retrieve the kitten before it gets adopted. The voicemail I was left with was mentioning a different animal hospital but they were closed so they do not have her. Does anyone happen to know where a kitten would end up in this circumstance? Thank you in advanced submitted by /u/Creelicious [link] [comments]

We were getting screwed by Shaw. Our 2-year plan ended and our monthly payment increased, but it's not like that was a new ordeal. It had been increasing by ~$5 for about a year so the promised $160/monthly was $210/monthly by the time our plan ended. It wasn't just the money, either: our internet would just stop working for no reason. The Wifi would have a little exclamation point beside it more than not, and I don't think I've ever had to turn off and on a router as much as I have with the most recent router we received from Shaw. When I would call about these issues, they would deny what we were experiencing and say it must be a fluke. We'd been with Shaw for 30 years. So much for loyalty. TELUS came door-to-door in September. Our neighbourhood's been on TELUS fibre for years now, and our house was one of the very last non-TELUS houses around. I was fed up with Shaw and decided to switch. They had a promotion where we would get everything we had with Shaw plus what we had with our home security for $20 less than what we were paying for Shaw alone. It was about $100 savings. So, I signed us up. Man, I shoulda stayed with the devil we knew. The rep we were dealing with promised to cancel Shaw for us. He didn't. He also promised we would have exactly the same security services we have now. That was a lie. We're now in the hole $800 because our rep missed the cutoff for cancelling Shaw for us, and they only replaced the lock and a door sensor. We have far more than that. I called and told them that we were promised the exact same service as we already had, but through TELUS. They charged us $450 for installation of the security features we were promised would be replaced. And they added a $10 extra monthly charge on for the new sensors and such. So not only did they lie out the ass, they've fucked us over because we fell for their "promises." I'm now waiting for them to call me back because I am not paying them for their screwups. If I'd known this was going to go this way, I'd have stayed with Shaw. At least the non-working internet and high bills were predictable. Tl;dr: fuck Canadian telecom companies. Edit: just got off the phone with TELUS an hour and a half later. They managed to track down all of the errors and reverse them, plus they credited to my account what they were meant to credit in the first place. I lucked out by speaking to 2 agents who actually knew what they were doing. The first guy actually caught so many errors on my account that he was frustrated for me. He was very helpful. The second agent was also just as helpful and said that these errors are not common, that I'd fallen into bad luck. So, we'll see. If everything levels out over the next month, then we're good. If not... well, I guess the suggestion of Cancom in the comments is an option. Thanks for the comments, guys. I just needed to scream into the void for a minute. We need more competition in Canada. submitted by /u/Kellidra [link] [comments]

Long story short, I own a couple of small businesses in the city - 1 in the SW near Chinook and 1 in the NW by the University. At my SW location, I employ 2 individuals from Ukraine that speak both Ukrainian and English. At my NW location, I just met a person who has recently arrived from Ukraine that I would love to employ. Here is the catch, based on communication comfort in English the potential employee would be best to train at the SW location for a couple of weeks to set them up for success. The work is typically outside of transit hours and the prospective employee does not drive. Hiring Ubers for 10-15 days is just not feasible financially right now. Open to any ideas on how to help this prospective employee get the best training possible. I am absolutely willing to pay on their behalf if I can find a cost-effective solution. submitted by /u/allisonheathers [link] [comments]

I'm being charged ~$820 for x-rays, checkup and cleaning and some people have been telling me that's too much. I have no concept of dental pricing so is this typical or not? submitted by /u/cupcake223 [link] [comments]

I’ve been thinking about the City’s attempts at infill and some of the zoning changes and I went down a rabbit hole about single story strip malls. There may not be much we can do about existing ones, but even new neighborhoods are getting these giant wastes of space. Many with the same predictable handful of tenants. I wish the city would change the rules about these and not only allow but require that they must include residential units. Perhaps X number of units per sqm of footprint. A handful of second floor apartments for example. Am I crazy? Does this option already exist under current zoning and developers are choosing not to do it? What value does a single story strip mall add to your neighborhood and how would that change if it were 2 or 3 stories that included residential options? submitted by /u/Curly-Canuck [link] [comments]

I'm in forest heights, and I have tar paper sewage pipes, which I found out is fairly common in homes built in the 1950s in edmonton. Anyway, looks like I have some tree roots growing through the line which will require Hydro jet cleaning of the lines. The plumber mentioned that if this doesn't work I might have to get the line repaired completely, meaning they would have to dig up my yard and garage to put a new line in. Has anybody had this done before? I'm just looking for some idea how much it would cost. Has anybody gone through Insurance to do this? Were you with TD if you have? submitted by /u/magog667 [link] [comments]

I live in a rental with one roommate. Our fridge has been pouring water out the bottom for a little while and we have been continuously cleaning it up. When we asked about fixing it, we were told to store all our food outside for a couple days and unplug the fridge/freezer to let it thaw. All our food will freeze if left outside which is not ideal. Plus things repeatedly get stolen off our porch (we leave nothing in the yard after losing bottles and camp chairs) as the gates to the yard do not latch. What can I do about this? submitted by /u/CaterpillarSoup666 [link] [comments]

Hi YEG What are some of your favourite spots for Brunch / Lunch / Happy Hour? I’m leaning towards Ma and Pa, big believer in supporting small business, but also open to chains. I recently was introduced to The Glass House in St. Albert, Ragazzi east end on Whyte and another fav is Anvil Coffee House near Capilano. Thanks everyone. submitted by /u/Rusty_House [link] [comments]

I need someone’s advice on whether or not this is crazy/or even allowed? Thursday evening, the lady living in the unit below me comes knocking on my door aggressively. She starts yelling at me that I must have water turned on, like my bath tub or shower is over flowing. I tell her I’ve just been working and haven’t had any water turned on all day. Within 2 minutes, she comes back and has a guy with her who says he’s on the condo board and wants to take a look inside my unit. I say no problem. The guy comes in, has a look and agrees there’s no visible sign of flooding. About 10 minutes later, another woman shows up saying she is on the condo board and must come in to turn my water off. I cooperate and allow her to come in and shut my water off. An emergency plumber is called and he figures out it’s my dishwasher that is apparently leaking into the lady’s unit below. He turns my water back on, but keeps the line to the dishwasher shut off. He also informs me the lady’s leak below is hardly a leak, he said it’s one of the tiniest leaks he’s ever seen and she is being very dramatic. He meets with the lady downstairs and tells her the issue has been temporarily dealt with and my landlord will be replacing my dishwasher this week. Thursday night around 3:30 AM, I started getting knocks on my door. I realize the knocking is the lady who claims to be on the condo board. She knocks every 10 minutes from 3-4:30 am. She also proceeds to call me 11 times and multiple texts messages saying the same message over and over “Good morning, are you at home?” Like no shit I’m at home it’s 4 AM. At 8 am, I text her back and she said the lady’s condo is still leaking so they have called another plumber. A new plumber comes back and says her unit is only leaking because the remaining water left in her ceiling. He also tells me the leak is hardly anything and does not warrant people knocking on my door throughout all hours of the night and texting/calling. I contact my landlord and he said he will have a new dishwasher ready for delivery tomorrow. These people will not stop knocking on my door, texting and calling me. My water is turned off and there have been 2 plumbers called. Am I being overdramatic or is this like not even allowed for other residents of a condo building to borderline harass someone like this when they no longer have any control over the situations ?! submitted by /u/Mission-Rip-8140 [link] [comments]

Some workers on a construction site broke the water main serving 26 homes and 5 businesses. FOUR DAYS AGO. I've called 311 multiple times, my landlord, checked the city of Calgary website. No estimates end in sight. This feels really unacceptable. Ugh. Hauling water from a water wagon up to the second floor of the building as a disabled person has SUCKED. UPDATE: the drought has ended! Gonna celebrate with a hot shower! submitted by /u/kphld1 [link] [comments]
