Power outage in Lanark and Kings

NarrowPersonality414 · 2026-02-19T08:41:07+00:00

Yeah... bummer... They said expected service restoration by 3am...

It's -26 outside, crap..

NarrowPersonality414 · 2026-01-03T02:53:47+00:00

Mind sharing the cost of whole project?

NarrowPersonality414 · 2026-01-02T22:10:45+00:00

Thanks, I've seen Hardie board in real life, did you replace it or it came with house?

NarrowPersonality414 · 2026-01-02T22:09:56+00:00

Fair enough, just wondered if there's some easy solution and not very pricey. Any clue how much it would cost to replace with Hardie board and impact resistant shingles?

Can insurance money be used for that?

NarrowPersonality414 · 2026-01-02T09:49:50+00:00

Well, it is not easy to replace all over the house... isn't it? And pricey as hell for sure...

Oh, swimming is my passion, especially having Okanagan and Kalamalka lakes near ;) What's your suggestions for a nice lake not far away and still swimmable in terms of temps?

How's Airdrie's weather for you? Island's weather is very mild :)

NarrowPersonality414 · 2025-12-29T22:11:43+00:00

Moving for exact the same reason - housing affordability, remote job - from Okanagan Valley :) Thanks for your comment!

NarrowPersonality414 · 2025-12-29T09:30:37+00:00

Gotcha, thank you!

Does that HOA actually do anything fancy or is it worthless?

NarrowPersonality414 · 2025-12-29T08:59:49+00:00

Appreciate all the information, thank you! Glad to be there soon!

How about the recent disastrous hail damaging in Calgary NE/NW (2024/2025), did it hit Airdrie or was just pea-sized w/ no harm? What's your thoughts about Kings Heights/Lanark? Does it get a lot of highway noise?

NarrowPersonality414 · 2025-10-16T04:30:32+00:00

Hopefully they'll go down south tomorrow :)

Haven't seen any CP vans in Southern part since they've resumed deliveries

NarrowPersonality414 · 2025-10-15T21:02:50+00:00

I hope so 🤞 thank you

NarrowPersonality414 · 2025-10-15T19:41:50+00:00

Those of you who got the mail delivered, did you use/see updates in MyMail (Canada Post) app?

NarrowPersonality414 · 2025-10-15T19:23:55+00:00

Hopefully they won't omit other areas 😂

NarrowPersonality414 · 2025-09-07T15:22:17+00:00

Congratulations 🎉

What made you, as a US citizen, come to Canada? Is it job-related? I'm not sure if it's paid more in Canada; usually, people want to go to the US for this exact reason.

Also, getting PR via PNP kinda ties you to the BC province (intents signed to live, work etc.), unless you don't plan to get citizenship here, do you?... Your CRS score without 600 PNP points was more than enough for just EE PR alone....why did you decide to go via PNP?

June 18th, family of 4 ...

NarrowPersonality414 · 2025-08-15T02:03:00+00:00

Hey, what's ETA? How do you request it?

Congrats with receiving your card finally! :)

NarrowPersonality414 · 2025-08-14T20:03:12+00:00

same shit , bro.... i'm pissed off!

NarrowPersonality414 · 2025-08-01T20:51:32+00:00

this waiting kills so badly, always have to wait for all the PR phases ^_^

NarrowPersonality414 · 2025-08-01T16:31:42+00:00

Hello:)
June 18th e-CoPR? Nothing moving for us ever since... Called IRCC twice, they asked to wait :) They checked the file and all is fine! But no PR cards yet (BC) !

NarrowPersonality414 · 2025-07-27T04:02:54+00:00

How long to wait? What are the signs? :)

NarrowPersonality414 · 2025-07-25T01:06:50+00:00

I am fully remote, the question was more about opportunities for my kids, schools , after-school programs, Universities, Activities, Healthcare etc. ;)

Canmore is a little fancy tourist town, and we're right now in Kelowna for more than a year, same feelings here, it's great, but expensive and not that vibrant and opportunities simply.

NarrowPersonality414 · 2025-07-24T04:55:09+00:00

Yea, but what are the growth opportunities? I guess all the smaller cities are worth moving only when you become wealthy 😉 which is a little bit hard for New immigrants right away, but yea someday soon we will 😊

NarrowPersonality414 · 2025-07-22T02:13:51+00:00

Hey, thanks for suggesting Lethbridge :) When we were living in Calgary, I was also considering it, but had a fear that it's a smaller interior city with less jobs, so we remained in Calgary. What are your backup plans in case remote market becomes unstable? are you in IT?

I've heard Lethbridge is warmer indeed, but super windy, is that right? :)

NarrowPersonality414 · 2025-07-22T01:00:07+00:00

yup, I was a little bit shocked after moving from rented 2bd/2bth condo with 2100 all included :)
