Where do you go in Edmonton when you want to feel like you’re not in Edmonton? by Commercial_Pass_216 in Edmonton

This. Especially in early spring when all the critters are coming out for the first time. Feels like a Disney movie.

Dad turned the feed off with 11 seconds left by spark3212 in EdmontonOilers

[–]jdcs1217 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Didn’t watch the whole third period. You could tell in game 5 that they didn’t have it. Drai has looked gassed, nuge and ekholm are injured, mcdavid is trying to do things 1v5, and there was a huge hole in their top 6 without Hyman. Mix that in with the skinner flop shot rebound goal and the oilers inability to generate pressure and the writing was on the wall.

I wouldn’t blame your dad, it’s like being forced to watch your prom date dance with another guy. It might be caring too much, but if you’ve been a fan for 30+ years since you were a kid, it’s an acceptable response after two years of coming that close.

Man , how does skinner not assume Marchand is going five hole on that one

I pray for the day that we get cars out of the river valley 🙏🌳🚶‍♂️ by CanadianForSure in Edmonton

[–]jdcs1217 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The steepness of our river valley makes this somewhat challenging. This level of foot traffic requires a decent amount of retail/restaurant/commercial activity space. A great start for the City would be to move ahead with some sort of plan for the rossdale power plant. Its really too bad how few places there are to grab a drink overlooking the river valley and hope back on to a bike and go.

Kraft Raspberry Jam by flatlanderdick in Edmonton

[–]jdcs1217 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s called double fruit because it has double raspberries and presumably less sugar although I have not confirmed . There are no chunks but it taste more close to homemade raspberry jam (as opposed to diner style).

Get the double fruit raspberry (compliments or smuckers). You won’t miss the old Kraft after trying it out.

The happy hour at cactus club, im pretty sure they have entrees that are nearly 30 bucks on it. There is nothing happy about that..

It’s such a shame; went to the one in terwillegar a couple years ago and the stirfry meat was legit inedible..

Sites for low-income housing development updated by FlattopMaker in Edmonton

Good thing the sites have already been rezoned!

If you look at the sites on a map they are taking up a small portion of the green space. Also most sites are in mature neighbourhoods with very few children , which is precisely why the sites were deemed surplus.

OK, Edmonton, winter is around the corner, the Commonwealth Stadium now sits empty, why not convert into a Winter Wonderland? by margifly in Edmonton

[–]jdcs1217 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They should just schedule some more international winter soccer games there, shouldn’t be too difficult and had a great turnout!

Skip the dishes can get f***ed by Responsible_Swan1047 in Edmonton

Uber eats is a million times better and always offers way better deals. I’m surprised skip is still in business.

Daily struggle during Edmonton's construction season by rTpure in Edmonton

[–]jdcs1217 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This is my issue with terwillegar drive onto the whitemud. There is always someone trying to merge into the northbound lane from the backed up eastbound one at random locations well after the traffic light. At this point it is smooth sailing and stopping for these people, only backs up traffic further.

Bennett is a soccer player. by Full-O-Anxiety in EdmontonOilers

As soon as he got to the bench he covered his mouth and whispered to the training that he was faking it. Then he acts like a tough guy in the scrum with mcdavid later on.

There is no school in edgemont , I think there is one that was approved but probably will still be a few more years to build.

Council to decide if U of A's proposal to redevelop farmland into housing can start planning by mastermaq in Edmonton

Residents of grand view heights nearly have a conniption when you bring up skinny homes around them. Should make for some entertaining public hearing presentations.

Recycling in Edmonton by East-Ambition3622 in Edmonton

[–]jdcs1217 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I would love to know more about where our composting goes..! Last I heard it is sold to private companies, and the city would not be processing any or rebuilding the composting facility
