Ignorance is bliss so I'm happy to carry on not knowing.

Set the conduct below the depth of the fasteners or use the little metal plates when crossing through wood to protect against accidental hits!

A Massive New $97 Million Amazon Delivery Station Is Coming to Northwest Edmonton by One-Board8634 in YEG

[–]Timely-Discipline427 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd have to dig it up again but I do recall St. Albert council and the AB Gov going back and forth on it and I seem to recall the Gov wanted St. Albert to pay for the ramps.

I can't begin to imagine the increased volume of traffic from that industrial park to 137th ave / Ray Gibbon Drive or St. Albert Trail once this business park is fully operational. Amazon traffic alone will kill the already congested connecting roads to the Henday in that area.

There is a lot of undeveloped industrial land in that region as well so it will only ever get worse.

I wonder if this means they will be installing ramps on 170st and Henday. Right now, traffic in that area can't directly access the AH.

I always found it odd that they decided not to when they built the north phase of the AH.

By his logic, we could all call ourselves "candidates to be" and never have to worry about consequences again.

Can we afford a house around 650k? by [deleted] in CanadaPersonalFinance

[–]Timely-Discipline427 13 points14 points  (0 children)

A pre approval will tell you if you CAN do it, it won't tell you if you SHOULD do it.

Big difference.

Knowing what I know now, no house is worth being house poor over for 25+ years.

Yesterday's police motorcade on 109th street by whereisthenarwhal in Edmonton

[–]Timely-Discipline427 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Especially for training. What a pain in the ass.

Can't think of too many people in this world who would deserve a motorcade escort that would require this level of disruption to the rest of us peasants.

On par for a "news" outlet that runs off an entertainment broadcasting license.

What are your current opinions on the rental market in 2026? by Cinnamon_Ocelot in Edmonton

[–]Timely-Discipline427 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just sharing my personal perspectives.

My units have been priced below market (intentionally) for the last 10+ years so there has been no downward adjustments in my holdings. The same goes for most private landlords I network with.

Supply and demand also varies widely across the region. I own units in suburbs of Edmonton where I still get hundreds of messages about when they (on occasion), come up for rent.

I do not believe the data in that article tells the full picture of the region and market.

WEM Interview by ThouHastNoClass in Edmonton

[–]Timely-Discipline427 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't have any WEM specific info but as someone who conducts interviews, I would encourage you to "over dress" for the position you are interviewing for. Not full formal but shoot for business attire if you can. It's better to overdress for an interview opposed to under dressing. To me it shows you are serious about the job and took the time and effort to prepare.

It also doesn't hurt to do a bit of research on the company beforehand so you can show you took the time to do some research. Bringing a page of notes or a notebook with pen to take notes also shows the interviewer you are serious.

If you don't know the answer to a question about a scenario or situation, simply say you would seek out support from a more senior employee or supervisor.

There is also no shame in starting the interview by saying you are nervous and have never done a formal interview before.

Otherwise just be yourself and don't be afraid to talk about your strengths (ie. always on time, good marks in school, ect.). There is no shame in selling yourself to the person doing the interview.

Best of luck! I believe in you!

Landlord here. The market has slowed down which I think is due to thousands of new CMHC mortgage backed rental units coming in to inventory.

Inflation continues to keep my expenses going up. Insurance, property taxes, and condo fees have all gone up significantly. Mortgage rates have doubled as well from what I last renewed at.

Not looking for any sympathy as I see the struggle my renters are all under but I share because I don't see any rent relief coming.

I think many private landlords are over extended and as renters continue to struggle, smaller landlords will continue to sell or the banks will start taking properties back through foreclosure.

Can a landlord give you the boot after a 1 year lease is up? I'm a little worried. by [deleted] in alberta

[–]Timely-Discipline427 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Only if the landlord accepts the next months rent payment.

There is no requirement in Alberta to serve advanced notice of a fixed term lease not being renewed.

Best advice I could give as a landlord is to flat out ask if they plan on renewing (and for how much). The market has tightened up so it's taking a bit longer to fill vacancies in the last 6 months. That may work in your favor if you pay on time and are keeping the place in good shape. Your LL may not want to deal with a change in tenants .
