I was at Oasis with my friends and family and someone got bear maced. We fled the scene, but I'm still shaken. I've heard rumors that the employees told people not to exit through the emergency exit, which seems counterintuitive. What happened that night?

I've ordered delivery from McDonald's on Spring Garden multiple times and it's always been a disaster - something's missing, wrong, or completely different from what I ordered. Is anyone else having this issue?

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'm flying in early tomorrow morning and have a few hours to kill until my buddy gets off work. I saw there's a bus for $5 that will take me down to the waterfront from the airport. Any good suggestions? Or places to avoid? I'd like stuff as much fresh seafood in me as I can!

I was driving on the 103 approaching exit 5 this afternoon and got covered in rocks from another vehicle, causing many paint chips and scratches on my windshield. I'd like to know which company the truck belonged to.

I was driving on the 107 highway and someone tried to pass me when it was not safe. I was doing the speed limit and they ended up cutting me off. I'm not sure what to do in situations like this.

I had to reschedule an appointment recently and the soonest my dentist could re-book me is June. I've heard it's due to a shortage of hygienists in Nova Scotia, but that kind of wait seems pretty extreme.

I've been searching for a reliable Korean all-you-can-eat BBQ spot in Halifax. There used to be a few around, but I'm not sure if any exist now. I know there are some Korean BBQ spots, but I'm looking specifically for all-you-can-eat places. I've checked out Seoul's downtown location, but they've moved. The one on Lacewood isn't Korean BBQ anymore. Are there any all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ spots I'm missing?

I'm planning to move to Halifax and I'm thinking of walking to work from Dartmouth to downtown across the Macdonald Bridge. I've heard it's cold and windy in the winter, but I want to know if it's feasible to do so.

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.
