Halifax Q&A

I'm looking for a place to sit and talk with a friend, not a bar or restaurant, but somewhere comfortable to catch up for an hour or two. We ended up back at my apartment, but she wanted to get out of the house. I'm wondering if there are any places like that in Halifax.

I'll be visiting Halifax next week on the Norwegian Breakaway and I'm looking for trading card game stores near the port, specifically for Pokémon singles and sealed items. I won't have much time in the city, so a location close to the port would be ideal.

I've been with Bell postpaid for over a year, but I just noticed they increased my rate from $40 to $46 without notifying me. I'm looking for a new plan with transparent pricing. I only need calling, SMS, and data for one phone.

I was at the Walmart in Bayers Lake with a cart full of groceries, not paying attention and ended up falling on top of it, spilling everything. Two employees from the parking lot came to help me pick everything up, even though they got their hands covered in raw egg. I'm grateful for their kindness and want to give them a shoutout to management, but I'm not sure who to contact or how to do it.

I'm a contract worker looking for a new line of work to fill the gaps between contracts. I've considered getting certification for bartending and getting into temp work for that sort of thing.

I'm looking for a hair stylist or salon in the Halifax area that explicitly doesn't request tips. I've noticed that with prices going up, tipping on top is becoming unaffordable for me and I'd rather pay a fixed price for the service.

We have two large dogs that bark at first, but then go lay on the couch. But the barking can still be annoying/intimidating. Wondering if anyone has recommendations?

I'm heading out of the city and want to bring some donair sauce back home, but I'm worried about getting past security.

A friend and I were talking about feminism and feeling hopeless about how much there is to be frustrated about. We had an idea to pick one concrete thing and actually try to move the needle on it, like a law that needs changing or a policy that deserves more attention. Maybe there's a petition, letter-writing campaign, advocacy effort, or something else that could be tackled by regular people with jobs and responsibilities. If you have knowledge about Canadian law/policy, advocacy, or know of a group in Halifax that could use more support, please share.

I was finishing my ride along St. Margaret's Bay Road and had three occurrences of cars slowing down next to me and yelling at me. I couldn't believe that was the thing that motivated multiple drivers to harass cyclists.

I just moved to Halifax from Alberta a month ago and had never seen a rat in a grocery store before. I was at Sobeys Penhorn Dartmouth and saw a rat crossing aisle 2. The cashier told me they are everywhere. Should I report it somewhere?

I live on Windsor Street near the Forum, my apartment has a facing door towards the street. Today, and while I was home, a woman I’ve seen around the neighbourhood before came up to the door and aggressively tried the handle, as if she was trying to get inside. She left after around 10 seconds of trying. I was inside but was scared to do anything. I opened the door and saw her on the steps of my building.

I was walking downtown today and the amount of garbage, empty alcohol cans etc around Citadel, mostly where people were lining up, was so disappointing to see.
