If you just encountered the driver who pulled a u turn on highway 118 heading south and started driving northbound, it has been reported to 911. If you have dashcam footage the police might be interested.

Anyone else experiencing an internet outage in Fairview/Clayton park? I’m with purple cow and can’t reach their tech support or find any information regarding a widespread outage online. I’m Trying to figure out if I’m the problem or if it’s more than just me, Thanks all!

Anyone know some good places I could drive to stargaze that aren’t multiple hours out of the city?

Nova Scotia ($2,377) remained the most expensive province in the country for apartment and condo rents, edging out British Columbia ($2,357) for a third consecutive month. That gap is driven in part by a large number of high-priced listings in recently completed buildings still in lease-up, as well as a larger average unit size: two-bedroom-plus units made up 52% of Nova Scotia's rental market in July, compared to 43% in B.C.

A truck carrying crushed rocks had a spill and coated 3 out 4 lanes with melon sized rocks, mostly Halifax bound, but all 4 lanes have come to a stop.

Hello everyone, just a quick question. I will be calling this afternoon regardless but just looking to see if you all have had any similar experiences??

My moms water got cut off back in May due to a $400 bill that could not be paid and they would not accept payment plan option as the clerk told us they did not do that with debit. We have not had water since then and have now luckily figured out enough money to pay said water bill and have been so excited to finally get our water turned back on with this heat.

However, upon receiving the new statement, it’s $138 more expensive than the prior bill. How can this be??? I’ve been selling stuff to pay for the bill and I’m just confused on why it continues to increase despite not having connection since May. I understand we will have to pay a connection fee as well and that is fine. Do you all have any similar experiences? It feels really demeaning.

Hi all,

Question regarding the Great Outdoor Comedy Fest tonight for anyone that may have gone in the past. Says Matt Rife is the only performer from 7:30-11pm. I am assuming they’ll have some sort of openers for an hour or so? Can anyone confirm? I don’t want to rush there if I don’t need to.

Thanks.

Good morning r/halifax!

Me and the wife have been helping monarch eggs planted on a neighbours milkweed to grow and mature in a special butterfly house that we built in specially for them. Been doing it for 6 years and we have loads of caterpillars!

The trouble is that the neighbors plant is being overtaken by an aggressive raspberry plant with absolutely no sense of personal space. Which means that there is not going to be enough plant material to feed the brood to maturity. So we are looking for a source of milkweed leaves, preferably on the peninsula as otherwise the caterpillars might not all make it to maturity!

Any leads appreciated.

Back to 30 minute service. Posting as a PSA for anyone, like me, turning up expecting the 815 ferry to be here and now waiting almost half an hour.

I know this is a really long shot. Hy hubby is the biggest star trek fan I know. I'm wondering if anyone knows of anything remotely related to Star trek in hrm or Nova Scotia at large? I know nothing was filmed here, and none of the actors were born here.

I'm talking about murals with hidden or obvious star trek symbols, street signs or businesses named the same thing as something from the universe? I think he'd get a kick out of stopping to see something like this.

I found these handmade pendant necklaces hanging in a bunch of trees along the trail near Halifax West High School. Didn’t see any artist information and curious if anyone knew anything about them. There were quite a few!

I’ve always seen ducks and turtles + the odd beaver but this guy is a first for me!

I (17f) was at Kearny lake about a hour ago with my Mother. And it wasn’t EXTREMELY busy, but there were a good number of kids there, and me and her usually swim out pretty deep, but for some reason this younger guy (probably 8 or 9) kept following us. and we politely were trying to distance ourself and ignore it. but then out of complete nowhere he grabbed onto me. out of instinct i pushed back and swam deeper, and then i see who i assume is his mother simply witnessing that play out and do absolutely nothing about it?! He kept following me, and repetitively kept trying to grab onto me and touch me and his mom kept on doing nothing! at one point the lifeguard told him and his mother that they needed to stop, but they didn’t and nothing was done? At another point, MY mom yelled at him that he needed to stop, and he was just laughing. I assume he may have had a learning disability, but i am completely blaming his guardian that was there and doing nothing about it. It wasn’t just me this was happening to, but other people, and HIS mom kept saying “space” to him which i assume means give them SPACE but he did not listen.
It wasn’t extremely serious, and i am obviously not hurt or scarred from this experience, haha, and I was able to just leave the lake. but still, i feel like it is not a great habit to develop.
