This is so short sighted and disheartening. More often than not they over promise and under deliver; not to mention the environmental destruction that they leave behind. #novascotia #cdnpoli #stopsellingourfutures

If Tim Houston is so concerned about democracy, he’d sit in the legislature for more than eight days, wouldn’t override decisions of Halifax regional council, would talk with reporters, and wouldn’t consider giving part of a provincial park to a private developer for a golf course.

Come out November 15 to the Halifax Commons to stand together in solidarity with land & water protectors at Tqamuoweye’katik, Hunter’s Mountain, and all resistance movements in Nova Scotia.

C'mon Canada!

Ireland's basic income pilot for artists worked so well they made it permanent. The economic growth it generated paid back much of its cost!

Ooof THIS! Via @sarahharmer.bsky.social This really resonated with me. I grew up in an environment where emotional regulation was a foreign concept. It made for a rough introduction into the world and set me up for some serious struggles in early adulthood. #emotionalregulation

PP is gaining in the polls. Carney certainly isn't without faults (i.e., reluctance to acknowledge genocide in Palestine/not addressing his father having been principal of a residential school), but I really believe that he's our best bet in the current political climate. #canpoli #neverpoilievre

So, heads up for anyone who uses East Coast Credit Union: when they do their system upgrades over the weekend, you will lose all of your e-transfer contacts and bill account numbers. They suggest taking a screen shot or printing it off if you’re on a computer before the system goes down.

Flashfood produce bags are where it’s at! For 5.00 we got all of this produce! You’d easily pay a small fortune to make this juice. If you don’t mind a few bruises here and there, definitely check it out. #flashfoods #halisky #foodsecurity

CCS community engagement fact sheets do not inform about the impacts of open-net pen feedlots or alternatives
