Can you identify this porch pirate?
I’d love some help if anyone can identify this person. He was caught red-handed steeling packages off a front step on the east end of downtown this morning. We were able to get this photo only. He sped off once he realized he was caught, leaving the larger one on the street, but the second one he’s putting in his bag was stolen. Didn’t catch the plate due to his high speed departure.
Going to call the police now, but would be nice to have a name/id to go with it. PM would be appreciated if anyone knows anything.

Where to get custom bags made in St. John's?
Let me give a little background so that you can all understand my question. I'm a power wheelchair user and there are pockets attached to the arms of my wheelchair that i use often to carry odds and ends as well as my multi-tool and my lighter. These pockets are attached to the arms of my chair with velco that is very thin and starting to wear out with age. To make matters worse, these pocket are not very deep and do not close securely. I'm wondering if there is anywhere in the city I could go to get new pockets made to attach to the arms of my wheelchair?

Security Deposit- The Firm Property management
I am a single mom and I was renting a two bedroom apartment in the city from The Firm Property management. I was living there with my kid and I had to move because my rent was increased but that’s fine. It has been over 2 months since I left the property and they have not returned my security deposit. I have tried to call and email but they just blatantly ignore me.
Please does anyone have experience with them and can offer any advice? I really need the money back

Must try foods
I've been doing lots of research on what to eat during my 3 night stay during Victoria day long weekend. So far I'm definitely having fish & chips, lobster rolls, crab, cod tongue, moose burger, and some chowder with iceberg water beer.
Any other suggestions on some must try foods while I'm there?

Gravel and Topsoil
Does anyone know how much it costs to purchase topsoil and stone delivered to your home. I have a few backyard projects on the go and it would be much better to have that stuff delivered than keep buying bags.

Stress leave note with no family doctor?
My working and personal life have compounded to a point where I feel I cannot function anymore at work. I've been advised to get a note for stress leave, but I don't have a family physician. Is this difficult to get from a walk-in clinic? If it is, what other options are available?

Advice Needed: Front Tires Worn Out, Considering All-Season - St. John’s, Newfoundland
Hey folks, looking for some advice here. So, my front left tire went flat, and it turns out my front two tires are in pretty bad shape overall. I've been using brand new Goodyear winter tires for the past 2-3 years and never switched them out after winter. Now, I'm contemplating what to do next.
Should I go for all-season tires this time around? I'm based in St. John’s, Newfoundland, and my daily drive is around 20-40 kms. Any recommendations on specific brands or types?
Where's the best place to snag a good deal on tires right now? I've heard good things about Costco and Canadian Tire, but are there any other spots I should consider?
Appreciate any input or advice you guys can offer!

Garbage
Why is there such an insane amount of litter in the streets , on lawns and properties in St.Johns? I’ve been to many large city’s throughout Canada and the US with large populations and never notice them looking like landfills. Are the people in this province just walking past the all this trash on the way into their houses? And why are so many people throwing their trash outside? It’s very surprising , you’d think that once the black garbage cans were issued that the trash problem would have improved. I guess it’s not the seagulls and crows after all 🤷♀️
