Hey West End Halifax folks. We need to stand up about the ridiculous lighting at 7177 Quinpool. I don't want to be trying to sleep next to a disco every night. How was this approved? Lets dig into it. Complain to 311 or by contactus@311.halifax.ca

Heads up Dartmouth folks, our neighbour’s cat Egon is missing. He’s very sweet and super friendly—hopefully he’s just out exploring the neighborhood. If you’re in the area, please keep an eye out for him (he will very likely come running right up to you for skritches).

Well let's see here, D has Middle Eastern Food, Indian Food, Chinese Food, Japanese Food, Thai Food and Australia in case I want a steak. Seems like a no-brainer to me.
For the rest of your life, you can only eat food from one of these regions. Which do you choose?

Hey. Hi. Hello.

The Mayor of Halifax is putting forward a motion to pause all work on the city's bike network.

In this bonus episode of HFX By Bike, I try to provide relevant context, go over each argument in detail, and show how you can get engaged.

In case anyone ever thinks of booking a stay with Sunken Escapes on Sunken Lake in Nova Scotia, I would strongly suggest taking your business elsewhere.

Denying a Scout Camp that has been in place for over 100 years the use of a road, what a bunch of scumbags.

I can’t believe I used to work for the company behind this “journalism” 🤯

I can only imagine how the newsrooms felt about this. Terrible.

Reminder to never travel to the United States ever again for anyone with any functioning brain activity left.
Le Monde reporting that a French scientist traveling to Houston to attend a conference was denied entry to US after a search of his phone & computer revealed messages critical of Trump's science cuts, "which [says CPB] conveyed hatred of Trump & could be qualified as terrorism".

Never been happier to have left an American owned company (Postmedia) for a locally owned Canadian company (Eastlink) on my own terms back in October.

Proud to be a Nova Scotian, proud to be a Canadian. 🍁
