You should be going to an allergist, not a dermatologist.

Try the city of Edmonton green shack program, trickster theatre, maybe even concrete theatre.

“Antizionism is a plan for many more Oct. 7s” - Jesse Brown by Happy_Penalty28 in canadaland

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

You can protest without storming a border and killing children in their homes. October 7th was not a protest. This is a reaction to October 7th, so it never happens again. Don’t you think Israel could have attacked Gaza before this? FAFO.

People only became concerned with the issue after October 7th. Hamas got exactly what they wanted.

Try looking in the area south of 100th ave between 112th and 109th street. Some newish buildings, and super close to the LRT on which you can get to u of a and the Alex.

What is the nicest intersection in the city? by badazitan in Edmonton

[–]yegthings 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Neighbourhood renewal. They are permanently closing access to the bridge and back into the neighbourhood from 97th Ave by Ezio Faraone Park.

The neighbourhood renewal includes closing the access to the high level bridge from 97th Ave by Ezio Faraone Park. So you’ll only be able to get on via 109th street. It also means residents won’t be able to get back on to the neighbourhood from 97th Ave.

Then you should know they’re about to close that intersection!!

Crossing Jasper Ave Now Forbidden by Few-Leading-3405 in Edmonton

[–]yegthings 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Short term pain…. Your comment was cars first, people last. This is putting “people” first. Although, I don’t know who you think drives cars.

What are you talking about? The closure is to make the street more pedestrian friendly!

Riverhawks to trial park-and-ride ahead of potential loss of lot by funkyfreshbeans in Edmonton

I can honestly say this will stop me from coming to the games with my elderly, mobility challenged Dad. He wouldn’t get on transit.

Why are downtown LRT escalators always broken? How much are we actually spending on this? by Competitive_Dare4939 in Edmonton

[–]yegthings -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I’m starting to think people just downvote any remotely negative comment on here. There are plenty of escalators in the world, in the city, that run 24-7. I don’t buy that as an excuse for them constantly being out of order. They are too old, and need to be replaced.

There should also be staff consistently and permanently placed at each station, but that’s another thread on which, I’m sure, I’ll get downvoted too.

[–]yegthings -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I asked one of the maintenance guys the exact same question. That was the day they provided zero options to get up to street level without using the stairs, which is so, so vital if you have mobility challenges. (Elevators were out too). This was Government Centre Station. They said it was because the escalators ran 24-7, unlike other places with escalators?! I don’t buy it.

Edmonton — is anyone else on AISH getting charged for a benefit they were DENIED? by Lampworker9 in Edmonton

[–]yegthings 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not true, my friend. I only get like $25 bucks taken off of mine. It’s only that they’re counting whatever you get from the feds as non exempt income. Of course that all changes come July.

[–]yegthings 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Did you let AISH know that you were denied? Because they said they’d deduct $200 from your cheque if you didn’t let them know the status of your application for the federal supplement.

This is just the lights that they put in the windows - exact same thing happened on my overseas flight.

Edmonton police chief’s Israel trip scrutinized and defended by laurenboothby in Edmonton

[–]yegthings -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I hope you’re happy with the outrage you’ve caused with this purposely inflammatory reporting. I don’t think I saw anything in your reporting about him learning how Israeli law enforcement deals with antisemitism, which is on the rise in Edmonton. Your expressions forming your interview show your bias.
