Must be from out of town haha

The store is usually in a location I can scope out beforehand, but I don't go downtown unless I have a specific goal. This time it's Halloween! 🎃 But the address says suite 200 and I seem to remember the old Goodlife location was indeed on the second floor. So as the title asks, can I get up there?

I live on the east side of the harbour and I now use the MacKay bridge to get to and from work. On nights when I work late and come home in the dark, I've noticed that the streetlights on the 111 from about the Victoria Rd overpass to the exit for the mall are all out. Does anyone know a specific reason why this section isn't lit?

(I actually kinda like it, because I find streetlights too bright most of the time.)

If so, they were chasing geese on them in the old toys r us parking lot. One was on an e-bike, the other on an e-scooter. Both were wearing helmets that cover their entire head and face.
I pulled into the parking lot upon seeing this and parked near the geese. I didn't confront them. The presents of my car was enough for them to stop and take off.
I hope a parent or sibling sees this and can have a conversation about respecting animals.
Maybe take them to Hope for Wildlife could help?
Don't fuck with the geese please.

Everyone from NS knows that the best fish comes from some guy's truck. Problem is, those of us without cars can't meet the truck guys. Does anyone know where I can buy some truck fish in a pedestrian accessible area?

Kindness and creativity will be on display at the Craig Gallery in Dartmouth, N.S., on Thursday as part of the 28th annual Mosaic for Mental Health event.

“This is a signature fundraiser for the Canadian Mental Health Association Halifax-Dartmouth branch, and all of the funds that we procure from this show go to our social programs with adults with mental illness,” says Garry Wilson, a community mental health volunteer.

“We started off a number of years ago with a very small number of pieces, I think it was something like 39 pieces. We’ve evolved today to over 1,200 pieces of art.” [...]

He says they are hoping for a large crowd when the gallery opens on Thursday at 6 p.m.

“It runs until the 27th of October. The tiles go on sale on Friday evening. All of the artwork is purchased online. Tomorrow evening is our preview night, and people can come in, have a look and see what they might like to purchase,” says Wilson.

Weekly update on restaurant closures.

✅Looks like A2Z fixed everything and reopened after October 8, 2026.
🛑It appears that both Ragazzi and Happy Garden are still closed. I think this could be one of the longest closures we have seen (or noticed lol). I couldn't find any new inspections for both those places (they both have a long list of things that they need to fix).

📣Fun fact for the week - 26/28 places that were shutdown by the Health Department is in HRM. That's almost 93%.

❗️❕ It appears that Pourdad Coffee is still on the list. Hopefully they fix it soon, if it's a genuine glitch

Edit note : even though it looks like it, the text is not AI generated. I am against AI slop and data centers, if anyone's wondering.

By any chance did anyone see the dump truck effectively run me off the road on the 118 outbound right by the 107 extension off ramp?

I'm okay and somehow there's no damage, I'm honestly just wondering if it was as dramatic looking as it felt.

For what it's worth the dump truck got close enough to fold my driver's side mirror in before I reacted and went off on the gravel shoulder. I expected to find a bunch of scraped paint down the driver's side of my car but I got extremely lucky.

Edit to add:

I just want to add, this isn't a witch hunt for the truck driver. I actually caught up to him and we figured out that other than having to put my driver's side mirror back in its place there was no damage. There's no issue there. This is just a curiosity thing.

Got the monthly statement, checked the bill explainer, WTF is this shit?

(The only reason the HST portion of the bill increased is because the rates went up, smh)

My brother's apartment in HIGHFIELD is going up to $1500+ [I'm not sure of the exact cost but it's at the $1500 mark.] I say this as respectfully as I can, but how the f*ck can you charge more than $850 for a one-bedroom apartment in HIGHFIELD? No hate to the location, but the buildings? I mean, come the F*ck on. WHAT IS HAPPENING? WHY is nothing being done about the cost of living? Why are people not enraged?! I'm living home because I genuinely cannot afford to move out, and I work a full-time job with semi-decent wages. And don't spout to me some bull that it's ''inflation'' and the economy because that's a load of sh*t. It's greedy people and I'm so tired of it. Aren't you tired of it? Why hasn't this changed? How are they ALLOWED to charge so much for rent? Someone explain this to me, with logic, because I genuinely don't think there is ANY EXCUSE, the cost of everything continues to increase, but wages? GOD FORBID YOU PAY SOMEONE A LIVEABLE WAGE IN 2026. WHAT IS THAT? Why, we're told go-to school, get a good job, and you'll make enough money to buy a house NONSENSE our whole bloody lives, and now EVERY PERSON I KNOW IS STRUGGLING, and people I don't know are struggling, people I talk to at the gas-stations, groceries stores, in passing. EVERY SINGLE PERSON IS STRUGGLING AND IT IS NOT OKAY AND WHY IS NOTHING BEING DONE ABOUT IT?! PS. Apologies for the Caps, I just don't know how else to relay this, but I know I'm not the only one who feels this way, and enough is enough. Something HAS to change.

A very popular Sportsnet personality, I am sure many will be disappointed to not get their book signed. In the past, I don’t recall pre-ordering a spot.

Edit: “ This is a free event. Reservation is not required to join the signing line, but is encouraged to guage attendance.”

Yet it says sold out. I am lost.

Hi all-

Just wondering where parents are finding tutors for their children. Hoping to connect two kids to tutoring, but unsure where to start when it comes to finding someone. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks

Welcome to the r/halifax Pet Photo Jamboree!

This monthly thread will be a place to showcase photos of your pets/animal friends for all of r/halifax to see and admire!

Is this a contest? Yes! But there's no voting, everybody wins and the only prize is knowing we all saw how cute your pet is!

Does this mean I can't post pet pics in Friday Positivity anymore? Absolutely not, we still want them there too! We just wanted a dedicated place for people to post their pets for all to enjoy.

Is it just for pets? No, if you have great wildlife photos, we want to see those too!

Show us your animals, people! 🐶😺🦜🐟🐍🐄🦂👽

I'm due for a mammogram and I called they have said there are no appointments for rest of this year 2026, all of 2027 and they are now booking out to 2028. Imagine how many breast cancers metastasize in that time which is the difference between a treatable cancer and a death sentence.

Pretty Brilliant.
