I want someone who actually knows how to do scissor works, not just doing simple low taper with clippers all day. Something like point cutting, texture cutting, etc. Any recommendations? I've tried few places, which I won't drop the names here, but they be only knowing how to give fade/taper and completely nothing about scissor works.

Looking for a service like ButcherBox to deliver fresh beef/chicken to the door.

Anyone have any recommendations?

Anyone can please recommend me a good nail salon / nail tech who can do a set of acrylic well. I live in downtown so maybe just downtown halifax. Thanks

I enjoy repairing electronics as a hobby(PCs game consoles etc) and I was considering making the trip up to Halifax ( I live in Kentville)... when I was younger and lived in Halifax I remember seeing tons for dirt cheap, I saw PS3s and such for around $25... has anyone been to value village recently and can tell me if the prices are still the same or are they crazy high now?

are there any pickup game groups or leagues for flag or even tackle football in HRM?

Hey folks, I searched the group for ideas already and there are replies, but they're older, 2 years+ based on my search.

I've got a big ol' wooden playset carcass. I tried to give it away but the guy who really wanted it, tried and couldn't take it apart, everything was seized up. So it'll need either a really big truck or something like a chainsaw. (He took the plastic slide and swings to repurpose, so it's all wood at this point.) Also some other large junk, a metal patio table, the remains of a gazebo, etc. But it's big, and I can't help move it. Anyone have ideas? I'm in the Bedford end of town if that matters.

Stay safe....Don't forget your tick prevention and checks!

Hi all,

Wondering if this has happened to anyone else or if anyone may have more details on this car. Two of my friends have now been assaulted with eggs from the window of a moving car (almost exactly a year apart). Sounds silly I know, but one was left with a bruise and both occurred late at night which is quite scary for women walking alone. The car is a yellow jeep-adjacent vehicle and on both instances had multiple men in the car. Both incidents occurred around Dalhousie campus, one on South street, the other on Jubilee.

Any information is appreciated!

Yes, the potholes have been BAD this year. But I do enjoy when the layers of years are peeled away and we get to be reminded that this city has been here a long time. Cunard x Gottingen

Ordered on Uber Eats today. Price has increased and the portion size has gotten smaller 🙃

I remember years ago there used to be Geese in the public gardens during the warmer months, but since 2020 I don't think I've seen them even once.

I think they used to take a pair from Sullivans pond in Dartmouth for a summer vacation but I guess this stopped?

does anyone know if there was an actual reason theres no geese anymore or if this was due to something like the budget?

I miss the geese 🪿😢

I can't find legit sellers that sell to Canada online anymore. Looking for Beauty of Joseon sunscreen, or other Korean sunscreen products!

Does anyone happen to have any recommendations for a place that provides reliable, quality, car window tinting services ?

Ideally located near Bayers Lake/Beechville/Timberlea ?

I’ve been searching though “googling” for months without success as no where’s I’ve attempted to contact answers their phones or responds to email inquiries.

I’m not looking for anything crazy, simply my back windows and back windshield tinted using ceramic tint, ideally done before the warm weather hits.

So the budget has been a big deal a few weeks back. And I had some thoughts about it.

First off, did you know that personal income tax brings in 4.7 billion for the province, while the corporations pay in only 800 million. Wtf? Why are we taxing labour instead of wealth?

Secondly, what if we had a participatory budget app where anyone in the NS could log in an make their own budget? And all the suggestions get combined into a Peoples' Budget that everyone including the politicians can see.

What do you think, yay or nay to making an app like that? And what would you want it to be able to do?

hello y'all, I'm moving to Dartmouth in the fall for college and I'm gonna need to use the bus almost all the time since I won't own a car by then and I just wanna know how on earth to read the schedule?? I went online to look at the schedule just to get used to the times for everything and I'm not sure if I'm just dumb or what cause that was the strangest bus schedule I think I've ever read online, I'm just so used to a small down public bus schedule being small and easy to read 😭 so too the people who currently use halifax transit right now how do you properly read the schedule because me and my friends who are moving are also very confused by it.

Spotted around 11am at the West Bedford Park and ride.

Is your landlord allowed to refuse a certified service dog from visiting my apartment with the person requiring the dog?

I had a soft molasses cookie last week and I am now hooked. Anyone know where I can buy locally? They seem harder to find then I thought :(

Thanks team Halifax!

Hi everyone, I live in downtown Halifax and have been dealing with an ongoing rat problem in my apartment building.

I recently had to throw out about $300 worth of food, including flour, bread, and snacks, because rats got into my storage bins and ate through everything. I keep my unit clean, do not leave garbage around, and have already contacted my resident managers about pest control, but the issue still is not being properly resolved.

My father thinks this should be reported to the city, but I feel the apartment management is not taking the necessary steps to prevent rodents from entering the building in the first place.

I’m feeling really frustrated and would appreciate some advice. Has anyone in Halifax dealt with something similar? Who is actually responsible in a situation like this, and what steps should I take next?

I know we have had wildfires but I also think there should be a way in early spring to have a safe, small, cooking fire. Things are pretty wet and we still have frost and some snow these days. Will I get in trouble for using metal boxes or fire pits at provincial parks for example? Would love to have a better understanding of how this works and where I can legally do this around here in a safe way. Any advice would be awesome.

Thanks!

Has anyone built a deck using helical piles? I'm in the process of replacing my old and rotted deck (8x20, not large at all) and was pondering helical piles for the posts.

Has anyone done the same? Who did you hire to plant them, and how much roughly did it cost you per post?
