I work in red deer but I’m not really sure about living in the city itself. Currently renting apartments and other things like it, no houses. Been looking at other smaller towns around, I’ve been through innisfail and it seems alright. Mostly wondering if it’s relatively safe, what crime is like there, is there lots of drugs/homeless like downtown Red Deer?

I libe in West Park. Our sump pump has been running every 4 hours for about a week, and we can see and hear the water being moved to the floor drain. But it's not melting like crazy so I have begun to wonder if that may indicate a water line break? Our water pressure has been awful since Westlake went in ans they spent a large chunk of time digging up the nearby roads working on the drains the last few years

Are there any in town that clean underneath the car?

I have a relative looking to buy a skidsteer from Chad but we live quite a ways away and I’m trying to help them figure out if they are legit. They don’t seem to have a Red Deer/Red Deer County business license. Or that many Google reviews. Has anyone dealt with him?

In addition to the career fair, all attendees will have a chance to explore current trends and topics in employment and workforce development through panels, speakers and networking opportunities.

Hello, I'm an LPN in Calgary I'm looking into applying for the spring 2026 intake, I'm looking at an 80 average though with my most recent credits unfortunately 🥲🥲 (took Stats and bombed it, dropped my average a bunch)

BASICALLY wanting to know if it's worth applying anyways?! It's hard finding good answers online. I know it's probably not competitive, but maybe waitlist worthy? . Thanks in advance!!!

Hello all Pretty new here. Wanted to know if there are any tutors who can teach French, perhaps some sort of classes where I can learn to communicate in French Thanks in Advance

Hey, asking for a friend since they don’t have Reddit. How competitive is the nursing program at red deer, and what are some of the averages people applied with? As well as is winter semester a little less competitive to get into?

This tall native guy with face tattoos followed me from the parking lot near superstore all the way to saputo cheese where I stopped and turned around and glared at him and he walked right up to me and stopped and I pulled out my phone and then asked him what he’s doing. He told me just seeing what I’m up to. I told him that I’m kind of creeped out because I’m a girl walking alone and I don’t know him and for him to start walking any direction idc. He literally just stood there for a minute and I told him again. Then he stood there again and then he finally slowly started walking and I walked a different direction and phoned my friend and told them about it and I turned around and the guy was following me again towards the bridge! When he saw me turn around he immediately turns the opposite direction and starts walking, so I continue walking and get off the phone and call the cops. I turn around again and he’s following me again! When he sees me again he turns into the blue cross parking lot. Careful if you are walking near or on that bridge this evening. That was very creepy and weird. Idk what was this man’s plan, but super creepy

Hello Everyone. I've got a crap ton of clothes to donate as we are clearing out closets and our storage room. All clothing has been freshly washed and in good condition. (A family member in particular has a problem keeping clothes by the trillions. Lots to go around )

Question is : Where accepts donations ?

I refuse to take our bags of clothes to thrift stores as they are all perfectly fine clothing and I REFUSE to play a role in the profit gain of such establishments when there are tons of people in our city whom can't even afford a pot to piss in.

I was thinking maybe Turning point , safe Harbour, mustard seed . And then we have seperate bags for children's clothing and toys which I was hoping to take to a women's shelter.

Would any of these locations accept spontaneous drop offs , or clothing donations at all? I was going to give them a call and saw they are closed on the Google pages.

I had left a voice mail for the women's shelter some weeks ago and they hadn't gotten back to me (Perhaps it is because I am a man? No problem, it's a safe space, I get it. In which case , should I have a lady friend call them for me ?)

Recap : Do any of the organizations listed above accept spontaneous clothing donations ? Or should I call in the morning as its scheduling only? And are there any other organizations in town I have not yet thought of or don't even know exist ? Perhaps even maybe a refugee center? Or any other type of establishment who helps vulnerable populations? Thanks !!

Ps. I will NOT be taking our clothes to a thrift store. I do not believe in corporate profit gain when tons of our neighbour's we share this city with don't even have a pot to piss in. THRIFT STORE DROP OFFS ARE NOT AN OPTION SO DONT EVEN BOTHER. Fun fact : check the publicly accessible records and look at how much money Value Village actually gives to the charities they "cooperate' with, the number is devastating and vile. Admittedly I haven't looked since 2019, so that very well could have changed.

Thanks. Have a gorgeous Tuesday evening everyone.

EDIT : Most of it has now been delivered to the mustard seed, including children's clothing. I have held back some of the remaining kids and adult clothes and will be looking to scatter them between a few different establishments to make sure everyone can get a piece of the pie. I don't think it'd be wise to have it all at one location. Not that i know what happens upon donation intake or anything , but heaven forbid someone can't make the journey to mustard seed or even known it is a resource , there will still be clothes available in other places which may be more accessible or more heard of.

I've also held back some more "professional" leaning attire and will be taking it to the ...... I can't remeber the name but the 'dress for success' place .

I've made sure that there is a little diversity(casual, professional, kids, etc) in every bag and drop off location. I have also dedicated different categories of clothes to different charities who seek a particular type of clothing variety rather than a miscellaneous mass of clothing.

Thank you everyone. I have a plan now.

Wondering what places are able to offer a rental vehicle for taking the class 5 exam. I have my learner's and will be doing driving school this summer but still don't have any friends or family to loan me a vehicle for taking the road test so wanting to know who does rentals.

Any guesses as to which fast food establishment is currently under construction at the corner of 30th Street and Gaetz Avenue next to the new Kia Red Deer dealership on the old Black Knight Inn site?

There used to be one down town by the superstore but I see that one is gone now, is there another good one somewhere around the city?

Anybody know why it’s smoky?
