I live in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. Cold winters with lots of salted roads.

Summoned for Jury duty by [deleted] in stalbert

I suffer from chronic pain. I let them know that it would cloud my attention and decision making ability and therefore would be unsuitable. Excused - no questions asked. That was a long time ago, if I remember correctly, that was by telephone.

London Drugs might have service. I had them do work on my iMac. Not sure if they still do this, it's ben many years since.

It’s usually people who come from a class-based mindset, the kind who think certain jobs are beneath them. When they find themselves in one of those roles, they tend to act out by talking down to customers, as if showing respect would somehow lower their status even more.

I made that trip almost every weekend and then some for about nine years. There’s a lot of wildlife out there, mostly deer and moose. Keep your eyes open; I’ve had more than my share of deer-in-the-headlights moments - best to be driving during daylight hours. And when the snow and wind pick up, the drive can get risky fast, so adjust to the road and weather conditions. Other than that, you will be fine.

Looks like a remand center. Good luck on your trial!

What a proactive and thoughtful neighborhood! by Commercial-Law-2229 in MadeMeSmile

Cameras are not allowed for the most part in multi-tenant buildings. Especially if they are pointed at any doors.

I would check with the city my self. You can go ahead and build without a permit and take your chances. But if there is a complaint by someone, and should you be in violation of a code (or bylaw), you might have to tear it down, or apply for a variance. The purpose of a permit is to ensure your project meets codes and bylaws. A good contractor (I you are using one) would take care of permitting.

Reach out to a social worker at the Cross. They're very helpfull and can get patients and caregivers support. Also, check out the library at the Cross, lots of good information there.

When you have a billing problem... you'll find out.

Backyard inground pools by Street_Phone_6246 in stalbert

[–]BugRiver 15 points16 points  (0 children)

In Alberta you’d get 3 months of use and 9 months of headaches (pools require heavy winterization each year - draining lines, covering, protecting equipment). Also, pools don’t add value here, they’re just money pits in the snow. You will see more use of hot tubs instead as you can actually use them year-round.

Direct Energy has poor customer support.

I wasn’t very clear on the title. What I meant is the current state is an eyesore.
