We hit a deer in our vehicle. MPI has said they will replace our child’s car seat with one that is a comparable price at a similar price. If we bought a convertible car seat after having a bucket seat would they cover it if it’s the same price?

Update: I called the claims agent and they let me know I need to replace with another bucket seat. Thanks for all the info everyone.

As the title implies, I’ll be in Brandon this week for a family members appointment. Where could I hang out and work on my laptop for the day?

Hey! It's chilly in Manitoba but The Bloodshots are at The 40 tonight - go show them some love!

I was just informed of an incident that occurred in carberry Manitoba involving a group of teens being catfished by one of their friends, who was pretending to be a terminally ill teenage boy in order to guilt a girl to date “him” ( the perpetrator is also a girl). The social media tool used was Snapchat and the perp kept this ruse going for over 2 years and victimized many of the students there. The perp was also noted and admitted to saying to one of the victims “ the last thing I’ll ever do is listen to a “N” word , I hope someone puts you in the ground”.As we understand the parents of the perp asked what the context was that this was said , insinuating there could be a context that would make this acceptable, with an agreed nod from another person of authority that was in the room at the school. Many of the students involved have left Carberry altogether as it seemed absolutely nothing had been or was going to be done about it. There have been many stories come out since about the racism and social media bullying in Carberry We felt this story needed to be told as it has been said the perp is still doing this to new victims to this day and for whatever reason no one seems to be stopping her

Hi everyone,

I’m seeking advice on whether I have grounds to take legal action against my college due to a situation they caused. Here’s what happened:

I enrolled in a 2-year program that was supposed to start in January 2025. However, the college only notified me on November 26 2024 that the program had been canceled. By the time I received this notification, all other schools with similar programs had already closed their application deadlines, leaving me with no option to start my studies in January.

The school offered me two options: 1. Apply to another program for free, but the only available programs start in September 2025; 2. Get a refund of my tuition deposit and application fee. I emailed them to ask if I could transfer to a program starting January 2025, but they completely ignored my email.

This delay has disrupted my entire academic and career plan, forcing me to wait until September 2025 to start any program. Additionally, I’m already in Canada, having paid for airfare, rent, and other expenses in anticipation of starting college in January. Now, I’m stuck with wasted time and significant financial losses directly caused by their late communication.

I want to ask:

1. Do I have a case to sue the school for negligence or financial damages?
2. Has anyone else been in a similar situation, and how did you handle it?
3. What steps should I take before pursuing legal action?

Any advice or insights would be greatly appreciated. I’m feeling really frustrated and unsure about my options.

Thank you in advance!

Did anyone stay at canad inns in Brandon nov23-24 ? Woke up to a fire alarm going off early in the morning, kids outside in bare feet in the snow, no staff anyone to be seen. No one even checked on guests or asked if everyone’s okay. 4th floor had a fire. They didn’t offer any advice or hospitality to anyone. No guidance on to evacuate or when it was safe to go back inside. Absolutely horrific. To add to that the fridge didn’t work, the water was brown, my friend got stuck in the elevator the day before, everyone is loud and parties and the staff don’t care, then the hot water stopped working completely. All you’d get is “we’re helping other travellers with their travel destinations” the room smelt weird and it was so dry in there. Pool and hot tub was freezing cold. Stayed for 5 days and upon checkout no one was around to even talk to about everything. Super overpriced for all the issues and lack of safety. Don’t stay there unless it’s your last choice.

Been looking for months and have applied to numerous jobs on Indeed but nobody has replied. I have a more than a couple years of experience in serving and bartending and is going to the university. I feel like nobody’s hiring and I’m running out of options.

Wondering where to enroll my (almost!) 5 year old for September 2025!

ANYONE who is attending university has bought textbooks that are now rotting away in their basement. Take this survey to make a change and finally earn some profit on those overprice textbooks you bought years ago
