@hfx-fire.bsky.social union has stated they can't keep up with #Halifax population growth. The Middle Sackville Fire is a prime example of this.

Should #Halifax invest in an Aquarium?
Beaty Centre for Marine Biodiversity aims to open up an Aquarium this fall. They need $200k in annual funds from Halifax for 5 years to cover some of their $653k yearly costs.
The rest of the yearly funds would be ticket sales $286k and fundraising $170k

It's a bit ironic that the #PC leader is preaching about security issues, when he refuses to get security clearance.
The U.S #Tiktok ban is based on "Top Serect" information and hypotheticals. Google and Meta steal far more personal data and openly sell it to 3rd parties.
Keep TikTok In #Canada
