It is a profound irony when the nation under attack feels more empathy for the attacker's citizens than the attacking government itself.

Hey, just a heads up, we are (finally) moving off of Substack, due to its nazi problem, its crazy high fees, its sex crime problem, and its 'let's not push out emails to people who aren't on the app' thing.

Subscribers should not notice the change, except for some extra emails in the next week.

Three picture frames of various sizes with papers on display inside. One is a blue 8x11 copy of 'Grand Parade Newspaper'. Beside it is a 12x12 frame with a newspaper clipping of the Chronicle Herald newspaper. Under that is a quote from Hamilton the musical which reads 'you built me palaces out of paragraphs'

Fitting timing for me to have finally framed my interview with @thechronicleherald.bsky.social & my mention in @grandparade.bsky.social for my participation in Halifax's budget debates on the day of its ratification. I never dreamed I would be this invested in municipal politics, but here we are!

Halifax Cycling Coalition asks HRM to prioritize bike projects amid rising cyclist injuries David Trueman's message as co-chair of the Halifax Cycling Coalition was simple and largely ignored on Thursday.

New: With over 100 cyclists injuries last year, not to mention 67 vehicle-cyclist collisions between 2024-2025, the Halifax Cycling Coalition addressed the city's transportation standing committee this week.

They were met with silence.

My latest for @thechronicleherald.bsky.social.

We've listened to your feedback, and we have big news.

We've been watching a lot of YouTube tutorials about how to use inDesign and now this week's (and all future) crosswords should be bigger and easier to fill out.
