Friday we woke up to no internet, then it came back during the day then off again from around 4pm to 10:30am yesterday. It came back at a reduced speed but a modem reboot and it was satisfying to watch those lights turn green.

As the #nspoli election is about to be called, I am starting to think about "contingency planning" in terms of media if the unthinkable happens in the US in November, then in Canada whenever the next Federal election is. I think I may have to cut out or seriously […]

Municipal election day in #novascotia today - I am helping out my friend Alison in Truro. She has been a strong incumbent councillor and a progressive voice. Very much hoping for a solid win tonight. #nspoli #trurons

It is not every day you get to buy a signed copy of your former boss's memoirs! Great to see Lenore Zann back in Truro and buy a copy of her book.

Nice to watch a movie where the grime, and […]
