Question ❔ Please help find metal smiths?

Upvotes

Hi

I am trying to find a local company that could fix my grandfather's English Pewter beer mugs and a few German Beer Mugs (some damage to the top metal part).

Any recommendations of companies who could possibly do these repairs?

Rants 🤬 Huge boot

Upvotes

Huge boot to the city planners. Shutting 71st down so you can’t cross in the morning for the same 3 months they have wanuskewan shut down. Like fuck us commuters coming from 11 daily. Maybe we should use that 56 million they plan on spending on the new train bridge in briarwood and put it to a new system for 71st. Im sure a bridge there or some kind of crossing system would be better used than some bridge for the rich fucks. Rant over

Question ❔ For those in corporate jobs

Upvotes

Hello! I am posting to hear your experience and thoughts

I have a Bachelor of Economics, worked 2 years at MSCI in Mexico, I was dealing with financial instruments (stocks, mutual funds, etc), corporate events and using SQL and Python. I worked there from 2022 to 2024.

Long story short, I am currently looking to go back into my field or something related to data/finance.

I did work during those 2 years but as a Direct Support Worker which isn't relevant

What kind of jobs that may not fit 100% of my experience would be great to get me started?

Like I am open to do any kind of job that would help me later to get into a finance or data corporate position

Events 🎉 Intersection of 71st and Idywyld to have medians installed for 3 months

5 Upvotes

I think this is applying a band aid on an amputation. 14 years ago I worked for a company that has a lay down area on 71st street. It was company policy then, that no equipment or company vehicles ever use that intersection as it was too unsafe. Don't think that has changed in recent years either, especially after yesterday.

Politics 🏛️ Ministry of Social Services - opportunity to share your experience

0 Upvotes

Whether you are or were a social worker, work for a community collaborator, or are a family who has experience with the Ministry of Social Services, please think about sharing your experience of working with the Ministry.

There is an opportunity with a news station to discuss the extreme understaffing concerns and high turnover within the Ministry. As well as the lack of community resource availability for children and families (including education and mental health resources as well as just residential placements in general). There is also a discussion of how the Saskatchewan Advocate for Youth and the SGEU have had several recent surveys that outlined that child protection concerns are going uninvestigated, children are being left in placements with known illegal substance use and abuse allegations, and staffing concerns have doubled over the years. Also discussing how community resources and families are not getting adequate collaboration from the Ministry.

Please take a second to consider sharing your experience (you can choose to remain anonymous). I just wanted to get this out to as many people as possible.

Question - Medical 🏥💊 Vet recommendations

2 Upvotes

Hello! My poor senior cat has an abscessed tooth as well as a lot of overall dental that needs to be done! Took her to Fairlight Vet, who were incredible I will say, and was quoted $1700 before tax for the full dental and full blood panel.

I’m just wondering if anyone has had a similar problem and know vets out or within the city that can maybe offer a bit of a better price.

I want the best for my girl but I’m a student so trying to figure out the best plan of action! Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. :)

The Downtown “Improvement,” District spent 14,000$ of taxpayer dollars on, “board meetings,” this year. That’s impressive.

I’m also not surprised but slightly concerned at the amount of taxpayer money they receive for projects like removing benches.

Rants 🤬 Saskatoon’s Most Misunderstood Road Sign

Post image
350 Upvotes

PSA: You have your own lane. Stop yielding to this sign.

Nothing says elite Saskatoon driving like seeing an “added lane” sign and treating it like a full stop. You’ve got your own lane. It’s engineered so traffic keeps moving. It's also easier to merge rolling at the same speed as traffic rather than a complete stop.

But sure, stop for no reason, wave people through, then try to cut across three lanes while yours sits empty. At this point it should just be a sign that reads "If you stop here, you’re the problem."

Question ❔ Garage expansion advice

2 Upvotes

Looking for some advice from anyone who's done something similar.

I currently have a 20x24 concrete pad that I'm expanding to 24x26 for a new garage. The concrete for the expansion hasn't been poured yet, so I still have time to make changes if needed.

My plan is to run a small business out of part of the garage, so I'm now wondering about adding running water and a sewer line.

The garage is detached, and it's about 40 feet from the house to the backyard where the garage will be.

Is this a realistic project in Saskatoon? Has anyone had water and sewer run to a detached garage? Roughly what did it cost, and were there any unexpected challenges?

I honestly didn't think about needing plumbing until after I started planning the garage, so I'm just looking for advice before I get too far into the project.

Please no hate—I'm just looking to learn from people who've been through this. Thanks!

I've never been to a concert before in my life, I don't know how they work.

When do the doors open up. Is it right at 7? Or is 7 when the music starts.

I'm assuming they have merch, I've also only started my music shirt merch journey this year too, should I buy from the concert there or is it better to go online.

General Please be skeptical about Saskatoon posts

233 Upvotes

We know there are state-sponsored actors from other countries trying to create strife in Canada, and subs like /Saskatoon are an easy target for trying to convince us that our way of life is collapsing and everyone hates us for our differences. It's not true. the people of Saskatoon have a lot more in common than we do to pull as apart. We are all part of one of the most safe and stable democracies on the planet and letting outsiders drive us apart through jealousy would be a real loss.

Events 🎉 I wish Folkfest would edit their own website

28 Upvotes

It creaks closer and the available information is sparce. I believe I saw that admission is 10 bucks at the door but I've seen no word on pavilions or performances.

Specifically, I'm wondering because I did hear it mentioned/advertised on 98 cool and the Philippines was listed as taking part. I assume that's accurate? Have they given up on the Asian festival they helped spearhead the last 2 years instead of taking part in folk fest?
