To the buddy in the versalift truck who helped me out today

102 Upvotes

Thank you for stopping and helping me while I was flailing to get the nut loosened on my flat tire around Antigonish. I clearly need to hit the gym.

Also I'm sorry that I hugged you after you refused to take money for helping me out. In retrospect that was really creepy and probably gave serial killer energy...

I did make it to Halifax on the donut though. Thanks for being a real one šŸ¤™šŸ¼

Is there anything in particular that stands out to you? Only 10 Distracted Driving offences means that people put down their cellphone as they approached the checkpoint.(We all know how rampant cellphone use while driving is…) I can’t fathom why there are nearly 700 aggressive driving offences.

Car Advice

6 Upvotes

Sadly, It’s about time now for me to ditch my old car…it has been great not having a car payment but it has started costing me money for upkeep and cannot rely on it much longer.

I am looking for advice on finding something affordable since I am low-income. I am not looking for anything fancy and it doesn’t have to be brand new.
Should I lease or buy? I am in HRM but willing to shop outside the city for a better deal. Is there a particular dealership or car make I should focus on for the best negotiated price?

Thanks for any advice you have to offer!

Hey,
I saw the posting for the CCN job for Kentville police. I’m wondering if anyone here has worked the job or has anything to share about the position and how what it entails day to day/ working condition.

Yes I’ve read the job posting

Thanks

MVI in auto sale ads?

0 Upvotes

Presently shopping for a vehicle, why does everyone indicate the MVI date when it just has to be redone when you close the sale and register it in the new owners name? Are MVI slips not non-transferable after like 30 or 60 days?

šŸ  Advice: Moving to NS Moving from Northwest US to Halifax

0 Upvotes

I want to preface this with the fact that I am a dual citizen (my dad was born in Saskatchewan) so I do not have to deal with visas or any insane fees, and I’m going to be living with a friend and their family as I am partially disabled due to my current housing situation and environment.

I still would enjoy some second thoughts and experiences because I am kind of a picky person about where I live and as someone who was born in the northwest United States which is majorly different than anywhere on the east and less populous I’m worried I may be unhappy with the experience over there.

For background, I’m 21 (will be moving when I’m around 22), intersex, and I’m in the foodservice/commercial culinary business. I was raised in the more rural areas of the northwest including Montana, Wyoming and Alaska but I didn’t really like any of those places whatsoever (a big reason why I want to be away from them…). I’ve found one of the only places I’ve really enjoyed the vibe of was Seattle, mainly because it had a huge arts scene and a lot of public markets and spaces. Most of my displeasure with many places in the east is the population density it has and the lack of public forest areas compared to locations I am used to.

I’m mainly curious on if Halifax also shares some of these attributes I’m seeking (public nature parks, good art/events scene, markets etc), and anyone’s opinion on whether or not it would be enjoyable for me? But in general, I’m okay with anyone’s prior experience living there as it helps me extremely. Thank you so much.
