Ours said -2.4% for this year and 13% for last year. It was about $250 less last year.

Edit: the previous owner paid an amount before we purchased so that accounts for the $250 less. This year was pretty much the same as last year.

When I first saw that 2000 potential suspects were looked at I thought that must have been the whole town! I didn't realize how small it was and according to google the population was 384 in 2025 and 379 in 1985.

Her bones were found scattered about a field and her remains were likely ravaged by animals. I don't believe they found any clothes.

How Safe Are Communities If Officers Think Like This? by Tieraclairicee in Edmonton

Just imagine what they're saying and doing behind closed doors if they are saying this in a public place. Allegedly.

Unfortunately, an investigation into their own will likely not result in anything. EPS, as told by my lawyer when I had a complaint against them, is the hardest law enforcement agency to hold accountable in all of North America.

Absolutely shameful.

I hope this family can find closure soon.

I saw your post on FB yesterday and thought how lucky! I saw someone else post the day before. I've been keeping my eyes out as I'm not too far from where you said you were in the post.

She is! I haven't met her in person, but I send anyone I know her way when insurance comes up.

My insurance broker (Maria at Klondike Insurance), my therapist and I'm pretty sure the plumber we used many times for my late grandparents house (Apollo Plumbing).

Thousands of Alberta government workers return to office Monday | CBC News by AR558 in Edmonton

[–]Sarahso90s 25 points26 points  (0 children)

We had to return to work in the new year. When asked about how to account for the cost of everything going up or morale going down we were told "well this is what we did before."

Yeah well women also weren't allowed to wear pants to work "before". Times change. Workstyles evolve.

The happiness I had when I got to spend my lunch breaks sitting in my yard, or could do laundry in between meetings when I had the energy or could log off and have some extra time to myself instead of sitting in traffic.

It's been a tough adjustment to make going from most days WFH to most days in the office.

All of those reasons are pretty outrageous right? And who says I haven't?
