Nova Scotians are experiencing WAY more anxiety about their NS Power bills than is necessary.
You don’t have to pay the crazy high estimates! Just pay your normal amount! No one’s getting disconnected. I wish there was some communication about WHEN things might return to normal.

I’ve been running errands midday lately, since I’m still off recovering from a concussion. That means I’m getting groceries with seniors and they are NOT having a good time out there.
I can’t stress this enough: take your grandparents grocery shopping. This world is unkind to them.
