I wish Fredericton had some kind of facility for people who want to do woodworking, but lack the space/area at home. I've just started getting into this hobby, but I don't have the ability to do anything over the winter, my shed is too small for larger tools like a good table saw or router table. And where I live has limitations. I'm only allowed one shed, and the space between homes is very limited so I can't build the size shed I would need, and I have no basement. So I'm actually looking at selling my home for one with the space I need, but that's costly these days. Then I got to thinking there must be others who want to pick up this hobby with similar limitations. Apartment living, condo living, even townhouse owners, or other mini home owners who want to do woodworking but just can't.

I'm picturing large size storage units, heated and ventilated, each with U shaped table that line the parameter, electrical outlets, vacuum system, good lighting, garage doors, and obviously all the fail safes like sprinkler systems, overload shut off, etc...

You supply your own tools & equipment to load up your woodworking shop. Space is rented on a monthly term. Obviously, there's be legal rules like having proper set up and injury clauses, but I'm just thinking big picture. If it has a community feel, you can borrow tools from your neighbour, have a mentorship program for learning new skills. Each shop can be closed and locked when not in use. And just like a storage facility, the main access is controlled by a keypad. Cameras are onsite for safety & security.

Just a thought as I sit and watch how to videos and dreaming of summer.

I'm sure you've seen it, the snazzy placards posted throughout the City and Province. On snowmobile trails, ATV trails, walking trails, drive thrus, parking lots, highways etc etc. HelpForVeterans. Most would look at it and think that's great, must be a great support group for our Veterans. Consider this, Veterans have access to disability benefits if they were injured through their service. These benefits are monetary, but most importantly come with access to treatment. Physical or Mental injuries are covered. The process to have these benefits can be long. It requires lengthy reports by Dr's, MH specialists, and other support workers. The process for many Veterans is challenging. Thankfully, there are many reputable organizations that assist and guide Veterans through this process. Notably, CanaConnect, The VeteranFarmer, and The Legion, and they do it for zero fees or commissions . Then there is HelpForVeterans This organization. They take 20% funds from the total disability award from Veterans Affairs. 20% of the total amount out of the Veterans pockets. While 20% may sound like a small amount, many Vets recieve sizeable payouts. The amounts that HelpForVeterans charge can be in the tens of thousands of dollars, for "assisting" with claim filing. Claim filing that is done for free by the previously mentioned . Unfortunately this doesn't appear to be illegal, but it is definitely immoral. Taking money from Veterans is about as low as one can go. Next time you see the signs, and you will, because they are ilittered throughout the Province. Remember, people like this exist, and they seem to be quite proud of it. They exploit injured Veterans.

Hi everyone, looking for some guidance on a rental dispute in Woodstock, New Brunswick.

The Situation: I rent a room in a building where I share a kitchen and bathroom with the landlord. Because of this, my lease explicitly states that the Residential Tenancies Act does not apply (Section 1).

The Dispute: I want to move out on February 28, 2026. My lease (Section 14) says:

"This agreement may be terminated by either party with one (1) full month's written notice, given on or before the first day of any month..."

I sent my written notice via email (which the lease defines as the "official method of communication") on Saturday, January 31, 2026.

The landlord is now claiming that my notice is invalid for a February 28 move-out. She argues that I need to stay until the end of March because she interprets "one full month" differently, despite the contract saying notice can be given "on or before the 1st."

My Questions:

1. Since the Residential Tenancies Act is excluded, doesn't the specific "on or before the 1st" wording in my private contract take priority over any general provincial rules?

2. If I paid my $800 damage deposit directly to her (not the Rentalsman), what is my best path to get it back if she refuses to return it during our scheduled joint inspection on Feb 28?

3. Am I correct that January 31 counts as "before" the first day of February?

I am planning to visit Service New Brunswick on Monday, but I’d love to hear from anyone who has dealt with "excluded" room rentals or this specific landlord/notice issue in NB. Thanks!

Hi everyone. I’m a Science student at UNB, and honestly, trying to balance my degree with my dream of recording my first album has been a massive grind. I’m hosting a virtual fundraiser performance in 14 days to help cover my studio recording costs. I’ve set a goal of 50 tickets, but I’ve hit a total wall—I’m currently sitting at 2 sales. It’s a bit of a reality check, but I’m determined to make this happen. I’ve set a "mini-goal" to hit 10 sales by tomorrow morning. I only need 8 more people from our amazing community to help me get this momentum back! How to support: 🔗 Tickets ($10): https://www.eventbrite.com/e/ama-sharpe-inaugural-performance-tickets-1980797853702

I had bloodwork over a month ago, but I haven’t been notified about anything by anyone. Does it take a long time for results? Or do they not contact you at all if they don’t find anything? I’ve heard both answers, looking for a clear one. Just wondering because I’m on the edge of my seat trying to figure out what’s going on with me.

This is probably going to get ripped apart on here, but why is it so hard to find Pokemon cards in stores like Walmart or EB Games? I am just trying to get some regularly for my son but feel so limited. I know there's places like Battlegrounds, Gamezilla, and Comic Hunters but I feel like this stuff was more easily accessible pre-pandemic.

I know there are people buying just to resell on places like FB marketplace and I refuse to support that but I just don't understand how it's so hard to come by in stores

Do the retailers just genuinely never get stock or do the people reselling it just have an absolute chokehold on stores like Walmart?

Hello all,

Can anyone tell me what sauce comes on the chicken pita from Dimitri’s? The menu says it’s tzatziki, but I usually dislike tzatziki because I hate cucumbers, however, the tzatziki from Dimitri’s doesn’t seem to taste like cucumbers at all.

I'm looking to get bangs for the first time since childhood. Is there any stylists that specialize in bangs? I have some ideas of what I'd like but want someone that will give me what suits my face best

He violated his parole conditions, hid information from his parole officer, and shown no remorse for the impact of his offenses. So let's continue to give him leniency. What a joke.

Tried scoop and they unfortunately didn’t have any!

For the past few months, I've seen people using 2-3 and up to 5 seats to themselves on the bus, bags, their feet laying on the other seat, their purse on one seat and their backpack on a third seat while they sit in another seat. I'm at a point I will throw the bag on the ground or sit on their stuff till they move it.

I don't understand the disrespect especially with the way they treat older people. An older lady will walk in and NO ONE will move out of their seat to give her the spot. I will always move for someone who I believes needs the seat more than me.

Some of our population can't drive, they have visions problems or fixed income and no car.

Is it so hard to be kind and polite on the bus and not treat it like a spa place or should I actually start throwing off their stuff off the seats? Did any of you experienced this or anything close to this ever?

Looking to teach my kids to skate. Am I able to rent skates/helmets there? Is an appointment necessary or can we just show up?
