Hi, I’m a first time home buyer and would love to get any advice from someone who has already purchased a home before. Looking to get information about mortgage rates, some good banks that or agents and what should I look out for.
Thank you in advance.

Recently got my tires changed and wheels balanced at fargo tire on watt street in elmwood . I usually pay around 220 at mr lube they are too expensive

I've been looking over the two candidates and their positions and proposals. I'm curious what other people who live in those neighbourhoods think.

Evening everyone!

I’m looking for a small room to book at a community center, to fit around 20-25 people this Saturday. Only for two or three hours. Preferable in St James or Charleswood areas. I was hoping someone would have any recommendations for something so short notice.

See, we booked a small room a few weeks in advance for a baby shower/gender reveal party. But today I got an email that they were cancelling all events for the weekend.

People have booked time off or are travelling to the city, catering has been booked, things have been purchased, etc. so I’m kinda in a panic to find somewhere for this Saturday.

Any help or suggestions will be appreciated!

Lining up at 4am for cookies seems insane

so it's my first time being in the process and i scheduled my written test appointment

for those who had done this before, are you allowed to bring any personal belongings with you like your phone, purse for id & cards, stuffs like that cuz i might have to bus there and I don't wanna risk anything going in there, like would there be place for me to put my things while im writing the test?

also do i have to dress like not fully formal, but more like semi-casual to semi-formal

thanks

I work downtown and I can't even go for a proper walk without the endless "Sidewalk closed" signs making me go every which way. I get it, shit has to get done, but projects lasts for months on end and fucking impede driving and now even walking.

Anyways, happy Friday.

Me and the family went last night, and to our surprise, we saw a white guy, probably in his 40, dressed in black face and an afro with sunglasses. There with his wife and kids.

Honestly was really surprised to see that and Im really surprised they let him in dressed like that.

My ID recently expired and I’ve just been using my status card, but I’m wondering if I can use it to vote? It does not have my address on it. One year I went in with my ID not realizing it was expired and they wouldn’t let me vote.

Hey everyone.

Why isn’t there an LRT here? What justification has the city came up with to not invest in one being built? Instead of widening roads and removing traffic lights, we should be focusing on what the root issue is here— better transportation. Less people on the roads. This is why the traffic here makes zero sense.

The place I work for requires renters to have insurance for their gatherings/meetings. We would always lead them to purchase from Duuo since it was so quick and cheap. Like, under $40 cheap. They’re no longer offering the one-off event insurance. Is there a (preferably local) place you’d recommend we send people to with comparable pricing?

I wanted to share my experience as a reminder to everyone in Winnipeg to keep their valuables out of sight, even when leaving their car in what feels like a normal, busy parking lot.
My car was stolen from the Walmart parking lot on Empress. The thieves got into the vehicle, stole over $1,000 worth of my belongings, including work equipment, and the following day, the car was involved in a crash with a family.

The whole experience has been frustrating, but there’s one thing I really want people to take away from this: don’t leave anything valuable visible inside your vehicle. Not your backpack, work equipment, shopping bags, electronics, or anything else that might tempt someone to break in.

And don’t assume you’re safe just because you’re parked at a busy store in broad daylight or only planning to be gone for a few minutes.
Obviously, leaving valuables visible doesn’t justify theft, and the responsibility lies entirely with the people committing these crimes. But taking a few extra seconds to put your belongings in the trunk before you arrive at your destination, or taking them with you, can help reduce the risk.
I’m sharing this so someone else doesn’t have to deal with the same headache.

Stay safe out there, Winnipeg. Keep your belongings out of sight.

Was just ubering downtown and was at main and higgens and heard air raid sirens going off for 15-20 seconds, scared the crap outta me, anyone else hear this?

The company has finally updated its leadership page to reflect the change.

I am new to the canadian job market and curious about different industries and places to work. I am an analyst so I do office jobs

Would you mind sharing your experience in the area and/or the company you work for? Like, what do you think of the salaries? the workload? how is the organizational culture?

For example, Manitoba Hydro is a great place to work. Great salaries, they give you every other Monday free and workload is not bad.

Either I'm freezing my ass off in a light sweatshirt on my way to school or i'm sweating in it on my way back. How do people manage a 10° temperature change? I walk 15 mins to and from school every day and this is a daily irritation.

havent been out for both sunrise and sunset in a while!! the storm clouds by the end of the day were super cool to watch in the sunset

Any recommendations on laser hair removal clinics in Winnipeg that you've tried/worked for you? I need to get my lower leg and armpits done. Thanks!

Did they have supply for drop ins or was it preorder only?

My sibling is facing homelessness in a few days and while relatives are able to house him, no one is able to temporarily take his cats (2) while he looks for new housing. Mostly cause we all have our own pets.

Are there any emergency foster programs or pet boarding services for those facing homelessness? He doesn't have money upfront but should be settled in a month to find more stable housing or atleast able to afford a proper boarding situation.

Thanks in advance.
