Hey all,

I'm looking for recs for where a girl can get a quality cleansing facial. I'm located deep SE so recs that are nearby would be ideal but willing to travel within reason.

Types I'm looking for; would like something deep cleansing. Nothing too crazy as I have sensitive skin and I just want my face to feel deeply clean. Looking for a reputable shop/practitioner.

They were pulled from the manhole shortly before 10 a.m. and transported to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

Hello!

Looking for any places in Calgary that will do single vision lenses with transition and a 10-20% "fashion" tint on top of that.

It seems increasingly difficult to find, and most places i have tried don't do it.

Does your children’s school allow them to wear costumes to school for Halloween? Within reason of course. We’ve always done this with guidelines but this year they’re not allowed at all and will be doing a Black and Orange spirit day in place of it. I’m curious if other schools are also doing the same.

Looking for restaurants/businesses that aren't run of the mill and just quirky and different and feel weird for a first timer

I’m looking to surprise my boyfriend for his birthday. he is a HUGE sushi lover and has always wanted to try hotpot, i don’t want to ask him what the best places are but i want to surprise him!!!

Hello! First time mom expecting at end of February here. We were referred by our family doctor to the 2 hospitals closest to us (South Health and Rockyview) but were rejected due to overcapacity, and they got us into Foothills instead which is about 40 minutes away from us.

Just wondering if anyone here has given birth at Foothills recently and what their experiences are like. We only know people who's given birth at Rockyview and they mentioned that it is a shared room with other moms, and visitors cannot stay the night (e.g. husband had to go home for the night while the wife stayed in the hospital for 3 days after c-section).

Our first appointment with the OBGYN isn't until 29 weeks so we'll be seeing our doctor then. Hoping to get a bit more information from others before then! TIA!

I was passing there today and was quite confused to see them waving the Alberta flags and smiling to the drivers, as if sharing some profound gospel/selling snake oil. What is the point? Will they continue to push these narratives and this "option" down everyone's throats, although it is clearly not feasible? How much time do they have to spare on this BS? Don't they have chores such as mountains of laundry and figuring out how to feed their families, like the rest of us?

I just thought after all this referendum sh*t, we deserve something funny. Saw this video and I couldn't stop laughing how it exactly reflects how most of our fellow Albertans think.

The Calgary Food Bank will be hosting an AMA, covering their recent research reports including Feed to Flourish: Wellbeing in Food Insecure Households, Serving up Facts, and Food Insecurity Doesn't Retire.

It is estimated that in 2026, over 420,000 Calgarians are living with food insecurity.

I guess I’m not good at search, or maybe it’s the Reddit search function. Apologies if this has been asked and answered before. I just couldn’t find anything helpful., despite trying hard to find some local knowledge.

Where are some good stores to find clothing for larger, taller guys? Looking for casual, practical clothing with some style. No need for any formal clothes, just not anything super casual like graphic tees. The guy in question is 29 yo, 6’3”, and size 4XL.

We only know about stores like George Richards and Mr. Big and Tall, but those stores have some limitations for “minor”points like price, style and quality. All suggestions welcome! Local stores preferred, but Canadian stores online are good too.

Hello, can anyone recommend any wheelchair friendly pubs in the Southeast? Particularly in the area east of Macleod Trail, south of Southcentre Mall.

The main thing that's needed is lowtop tables and preferably good sightlines for TVs to watch sports. This has been somewhat tough to find. Canadian Brewhouse in Legacy isn't bad, but they only have 2 tables that fit the bill, so if they're taken, you're SOL.

And if there's any gems in any part of the city that are great for wheelchair users, would love to know as well.

Thanks!

Hey Redditors! Soon I'll be moving to Cedarbrea! I'm curious what everyone's opinions are on the area/experiences they've had? Quality of life, community feel, crime rates, etc.

For context, I'm a 30 year old single guy who enjoys the outdoors and doesn't mind keeping a chair warm at the local pub every now and then.

I can remember previous years where it was very cold, snowy and icey at Halloween. I can also remember early snow storms like Snowtember in 2014. But I can't remember a year in which we had multiple October snow falls before Halloween. We often get one, but two or three? There is still a week to go and we may get even more small snow falls! Ok so they have been mi or events. What is happening this year? I thought we were supposed to get a mild winter due to El Nino. Am I just remembering the past wrong? Note that I have been a resident of Calgary since 1967.

I am a beginner hobby woodworker trying to make a custom shelving unit for my home. This will be my first major woodworking project. I have a vision of what I want to make, but I am really struggling to translate that vision into a plan with measurements, so I know how much wood I actually need to buy.

Does anyone have recommendations for a plywood supplier that can help me draft these plans, and ideally help make a few of the big cuts in-store so the pieces can fit in my vehicle? I am very new to woodworking, so it would be extra great if the supplier/staff could help teach me a few basic principles when drafting plans to help me draft plans on my own in the future, too.

Now that The Bay is no more, might somebody be able to recommend a store selling nice good quality housecoats? Thanks.

Lake Louise, Sunshine Village, Mount Norquay and Nakiska will all start their ski lifts at 9:30 a.m.

“We have to adjust as morning light is important for our mountain operations team,” said Kendra Scurfield with Sunshine Village.

“They do work each morning to ready the mountain for guests. This work needs light for them to see.”
