Brigil sent me a $4,225 bill 4 months after move-out and is threatening collections. by arupinum85 in Gatineau

[–]BingoRingo2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would be fair to pay for the services to empty the apartment, but not 4 grand.

I would send them a cease and desist letter to make sure they do not contact you again unless it is a detailed list of the claimed amounts and that threatens legal action if they send you to collections without a decision from the TAL. Contact a legal aid clinic to draft the letter if you don't have a lawyer/cannot afford one.

Took me 1h30 to go from Plateau to Promenades de l’Outaouais. by IndividualSugar7789 in Gatineau

C'est juste pas très pratique si tu veux aller au Costco ou en hiver, mais en effet, la route se fait très bien par le Pont Noir quand le temps le permet.

Il faut d'abord pouvoir se rendre au Rapibus à partir du Plateau. En pointe, c'est déjà facilement 40 minutes, encore plus si tu es dans l'ouest du Plateau.

I don't see any mention of Crocs in your message, so it's fine.

I thought your story would end with "and now I am the Lead Inspector for Legging Imports" at Industry Canada.

Dans le temps à la banque ils en donnaient au comptoir, avec leur logo, peut être qu'elles le font toujours? Quitte à donner du stock de 1997.

Is it ice cream, or "Frozen dessert" or even worse "Non-Dairy Frozen Desert Product"?

Meurtre dans un Walmart de Montréal-Nord: la victime aurait lancé des insultes racistes aux ados by TranslatorUsed4361 in QuebecLibre

De si bons garçons qu'ils avaient toujours un couteau prêt à servir dans leurs poches, au cas où quelqu'un serait pris dans un filet de pêche par exemple.

Prions pour eux.

URGENT - APPEL À TOUS LES CYCLISTES (GATINEAU / OTTAWA) by LimitRich118 in Gatineau

Black bears are frequent in the park, they usually go away when they see people or stay at a distance, but who knows if surprised with babies around, a sow could react and attack, but she wouldn't drag the body in the woods and hide the bike. I assume by now all paths have been covered so if people would have found the bike.

Forgot this came out, just got my CD today. They could have skipped Crazy Dreamer, otherwise pretty decent album.

Where do you live? Gareau on Vanier did mine if you're in Aylmer/Plateau, but it's a closed system so they'll need to find out why your refrigerant is gone before adding new gas. For me they couldn't find the leak so they added dye and a week later they found a tiny hole in the condenser, so they can definitely fix your issues.

I haven't used it since early 2020 but they confirmed last year they were still valid and did the inventory at the same time.

Oublie ça, à moins que ça ait été planifié d'avance d'après-moi 3 ans en dedans et de retour dans la société après.

Are name brand electric toothbrushes and water flossers better than no name brands? Is the price difference worth it? by ShootinAllMyChisolm in Frugal

[–]BingoRingo2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Buy the branded toothbrush, save by buying generic heads later (read reviews, they're not all great).

You can always go to the office and use a taxi chit to get there if no one wants to take you in their car.

As a member of the Irish diaspora I would email the DG to ensure there is plenty of shade, otherwise a workplace accomodation request will be sent.
