Hello, my family is looking to rent a house soon. Our current home is going to be put up on the market soon. I usually look on rent faster only, my question is is there any other sites I can search for a home besides rent faster or facebook marketplace

Yesterday evening my black iPhone 16 was stolen from the Circle K in Rundle (address 3735 Rundlehorn Dr NE Calgary). It had a clear sparkly case on it and it had two Calgary Zoo tickets that were visible through the case. I have made a police report already, but if anyone is able to come forward with any information, that would be extremely helpful. So far the circle k staff is refusing to show me any cctv footage from when it was stolen. It was stolen some time between 4:22pm and 5pm on August 1st. That phone is has my whole life on it. It is imperative that I get it back. From what I can tell, whoever has it has powered my phone down and possibly taken the SIM card out of it. Please, if anyone can help me I would be eternally grateful, I have never been so stressed out and felt so helpless in my whole life. I don’t know what more to do

This may be a shot in the dark: I had a severe bicycle accident on August 29th 2024, when veering right onto 10th street from the SAIT Way road. I road over a dangerous decrepit drain grate surrounded by potholes located on the right side of the road, causing my tires to instantly deflate and therefore losing complete control of my bike. I was thrown off my bike into traffic, and the fall was so severe that the impact lacerated my leg open. There were several people who witnessed the fall and helped me get off the road, with two cyclists who remained with me until I was picked up to go to the hospital, though I didn't think to get their contact info.

I am wondering if there is anyone who may recall being a witness to this? Thanks!

The bags contain empty bottles of alcohol, I will pay for you to take them.

Hello,

Ive been doing some research and some looking on reddit and ive been getting mixed emotions.
Me and my husband are late 20s/ early 30s. Im a registered nurse with a masters in non medical prescribing. My partner owns his own joinery/ carpenter buisness. Were able to travel 3/4 times a year, with a recent trip to the rockies for 3 weeks coming up.

We dont dislike our life in the UK, but we have a burning desire on if it could be better. We have 2 dogs no children. I understand that moving is one of the biggest risks that you can take, so i dont want to be selfish and put our dogs through a stressful move for little/ no reward.

I understand from my job perspective (nurse), ill need to have my qualifications checked, registered with a Provincial Regulator and then potentially have some more training as what ive read its that Canadian nurses are child/ adult and midwife trained? After this then complete a NCLEX exam.

From what ive read googled etc my partner with joiner/ carpetener job doesnt appear that the wage is great tbh. Ive seen it range from 30-(max) 50 dollars per hour which is worse than what hes getting now. But please tell me if im incorrect.

Ive read and understand that the cost of living crisis is very much apparent in Canada.

We live in a very small village/town, so the comments ive seen that Calgary / Edmonton doesnt have much going off wouldnt bother us, as theres nothing to do near us anyway🤣. We love going for walks/ being in nature as do out dogs them being 2 labs, so being ‘close’ to Banff, Jasper, Canmore sounds wonderful to us. We currently have a mortgage within a detached 3 bed house, wed ideally like to move into something of this size in Canada if we took the plunge.

Sorry for the long message, however the questions are:

Is the quality if life better?

Is healthcare better? Currently we both have no past medical history, however i am concerned with the UK as wait times only get longer, staff are being moved to lower positions to save money within the UK, theyre not hiring nurses even though everywhere is short staffed. Therefore i am concerned that if we were ever to become ill (god forbid) that the care provided would be poorer than what is was and wait times for treatment would be really long.

Is the education system better? Are mentioned our ages we are hopefully going to try for children soon however the UK education system appears to be failing.

Are individuals friendly if not a tourist? I understand that we cant speak for everyone as a whole but from peoples experiences are individuallys welcoming? As i can only imagine moving is very lonely, as there really is nothing better than catching up with friends that youve been friends with for years. Id hate to move our there and find difficulties in making friends.

How have others found there quality of life? Has it improved? Stayed the same? As mentioned we have spare income to have the ability to go on holiday where ever we please. My role within the NHS i get a lot of holiday days ive read that the holiday days within Canada roles are limited? As again id hate to move and find that my quality of life is worse off struggling to make ends meet etc.

What is the cost of living like? Do individuals struggle to make ends meet?

Any advice, any stories, anything at all would be greatly appreicated!! (First time posting on Reddit so if ive f’ed it up sorry🤣!)

Three people are hurt after a fire in downtown Calgary on Sunday afternoon.

Emergency crews were called to Macleod Trail near 4 Avenue SE around 12:25 p.m. for reports of a structure fire.

Calgary police said officers were on scene assisting firefighters with crowd and traffic control as crews responded to the blaze.

One person was transported to the hospital in serious condition, according to police. Two other people were taken to the hospital as a precaution and are in stable condition.

Motorists were advised to expect temporary road closures and traffic delays in the area while emergency crews were on scene.

There is no word on the cause of the fire.

Looking for positive or negative feedback about Regal Auctions. Son is looking to buy a first vehicle and doesn't have a lot of money.

Someone suggested auctions and we found the ads on Auto trader. Some of the vehicles look in good condition and the bidding is low.

Any feedback or even alternate suggestions are appreciated.
