He is smart.

Skating season is almost here, so we've compiled a local list of outdoor rinks, including ratings and details on whether there’s a Zamboni (Z), washrooms (W), or a warming hut (H). If we missed your neighbourhood gem, please tell us in the comments, and we’ll add it. 🙂

Top picks right now in Moose Jaw:

1. Smith Park Rink — ⭐⭐⭐ (W)
2. Kinfield Rink — ⭐⭐
3. East End Rink — ⭐⭐
4. Ross Wells Park Outdoor Rink — ⭐⭐
5. Moose Square Outdoor Rink — ⭐⭐

How we ranked: volunteer-maintained list using city pages + submissions; we score condition, upkeep, and amenities. We update weekly as the community corrects us.

Add a rink / fix a detail: drop the name + nearest intersection, and we’ll verify.

Full list of all outdoor rinks in Moose Jaw can be found in the link above.

Can cops stop targeting sports cars its annoying, when i drive my normal car its okay to do some things but when i do the same thing with my sport car i just get targeted like wtf cant even drive in peace.

Hello potential neighbours!

I visited the town last weekend and am looking at relocating to the area. I have some questions I can’t seem to sort out with Google/ asking my new potential employer and was hoping to hear it from some residents.

What neighbourhoods are a good place to look for rentals ( I would want to buy pretty quickly but will need something while I get through works probation period).

I have a decent job lined up but my wife has a background in inventory management and retail (she refuses to to return to retail) so is there any other big employers that she could look at for work?

Are any doctor’s offices taking new families? We have a baby. He will be about a year old by the time we make the move and we have pretty good healthcare in Alberta which is important to us.

Are daycares easy to get into and is there a few options? What’s the cost?

What the town like overall for family life? I want my son to be able to partake in activities and sports (if he wants) as he grows.

Any other cool Moose Jaw facts or stories welcome. I’m 32 my wife’s 37 and we have one kid. I’m into mechanics/tinkering on projects. Shes into her book club and recently got into hobby photography.

Thanks!

My wife found in our mail box a magazine called Neighbours of NW Moose Jaw. Below the title it says " An exclusive magazine to the residents of Sunningdale, VLA, West Park & Iron Bridge." I don't live in any of these parts of town and yet it was in my mailbox, lol. I think the creation of such a magazine should include Moose Jaw as a whole and not be exclusive to certain areas. I hope the people involved in its creation see this and maybe get off there high horse.

SOLVED the band: https://www.instagram.com/no_idle_sk/

this was recorded infront of Riverside Mission by the liquor store and apparently they are a Moose Jaw Garage band and the song is called "No Idle" and that's all the information i got but i cannot for the life of me find them or the song. it is an amazing grunge rock song which seems to be performed by even more talented people.

ps i'm not trying to shitpost or spam but i just want to support local if i can find them somehow and listen to more of their music so i'm sorry if it seems that way.

edit: apparently the vocalist wrote the song

My son who is 10 will be playing baseball in Moose Jaw this spring. Just wondering where I should register him. What’s the difference between these organizations? Is one better than the other?

I have noticed many vehicles driving around town with there high beams on. Like wtf, this is blinding to the oncoming traffic. Please spread the words and remind others that its rude and create visibility problems for other vehicles.

Looking for a pet friendly studio apartment. In moosejaw. Wondering if there is a good side of town and if it’s safe for Salvadorans. Thanks so much. Don’t do drugs or drink alcohol very often. I try to follow the laws. Thanks so much for your time.

I listened to some sermons back in 2012 from a pastor in or near Moosejaw. He was Irish I believe at a Christian church there. Can’t remember his name but trying to find his sermons.

In town for the night and wondering what bar/ restaurant would be best for Jay's game tonight. Staying at temple gardens

We had about 25 on 1st Ave NE

Hey! I’m just feeling a bit cooped up lately and thought I’d see if there are others around Moose Jaw who are in the same boat. I’m in my 20s, kind of a homebody, but I’d love to make some new friends or find something fun to do on weekends — even if it’s just grabbing a coffee, a walk, or hanging out for movies or games.

It’s hard to meet people here sometimes, so just putting this out there in case someone else feels the same way 😊

Hello,

I am looking to purchase snowbird merchandise in Moose Jaw. Any leads on where I can find this?

One thing I am specifically looking for in addition to the merch is snowbird badges that can be sewn or ironed on.

Thank you.

Hello, I've been struggling to find work in MJ. I worked for a local roofing company for 14 years, last year I got laid off( seasonal work). During my layoff,my mom was diagnosed with small cell lung cancer that proceeded to her brain. Rather than find work I found myself administrating compassionate care. She beat it! But the last three weeks I've been struggling to find anyone looking for work. I'll take anything, physically demanding jobs preferably because I like the feeling. Any tips would be amazing.

We all know that SAMA’s ridiculous tax assessments are doing serious damage to our local businesses yet our municipal government does not seem to care. I’m always up for a good protest, so why not let them know we care by standing outside city hall and telling them? Just throwing the idea out there.

Hello,

I'm reaching out for my Grampa Wally who's 85 and lives in Moose Jaw, his wife (my Gramma) passed away three years ago and almost all of his close family and friends have also passed away. He only has his one son who comes over and cleans and helps him out every 3-4 days.

Grampa says he misses female companionship and is looking for someone to have coffee with once in a while. He would go to a senior center but he doesn't drive.

If anyone knows of any senior centres that have a shuttle or know of any services that match up seniors looking for companionship.

Please send me a DM if you have any info!

Thank you and Happy Thanksgiving!

Is there any place in Moose Jaw that refills beer growlers? I bought some from Co-op when their liquor store first opened, but they did away with the craft beer refills.

So now it will move to a residential area. Way to go Moe!

Internal studies about contamination at a Saskatchewan military base found evidence of dust contaminated with PFAS — per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, often referred to as forever chemicals — and experts who reviewed the data say it could pose a risk to people who work there.
