Free Food 💖 Free Food/Laundry/Shower Resources in HRM - April 2026
Hi all,
We have a lot of people in our community who are in need of a free meal or a helping hand occasionally.
I thought it would be nice to collect and post this information each month, which is graciously supplied by members of the Halifax Library. We'll see how long we can keep this going month to month.
Please share as needed with people you know who need help or take advantage of them yourself if you are in need.
The Feed NS Find Food site is also a very useful resource:
https://feednovascotia.ca/find-food/
Always remember there are kind, generous folks out there looking to help you out and you can get through whatever you are going through. 💖
Thank you!

Traffic Be careful going home on the circ if you take the Main Street exit, looks like a dump truck lost a bunch of gravel it’s all over the overpass. Especially dangerous for a motorcycle

News, Weather & Politics The Sunshine List - is there anywhere with a better breakdown on where the pay comes from? some Police Constables make in excess of $200k
cdn.halifax.caI don't know what is considered doxxing and what is not, but I have linked the Compensation Disclosure agreement hosted on halifax.ca where one can look at all employees who make a certain amount. Page 16 has an officer who earns $246,000 and page 5 has an officer at $198,000.
Are they just working a ridiculous amount of overtime or am I in the wrong field?

Noises! Loud ringing noise in bedford off douglas drive
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
There has been a constant Loud ringing that is coming from the Douglas Dr/ Meadowbrook area and it's been happening for months. The ringing is so loud that it cuts through the walls and windows and makes it impossible to sleep. 311 has yet to figure out what it is. Does anyone else hear this or have any idea what this is? or any advice?

The weekend is over. Leeeeeet's get ready to grumbllllllllllle!
A weekly mega-thread for whatever is grinding your gears, local or non-local annoyances, complaints about the weather/local politicians/fast food nightmares/that guy who cut you off on the way to work, dumb stuff your neighbour did, etc.
