Doing the math the cost per resident is similar -- about $336 in HRM versus about $340 for CBRM.

You are correct. Jeez how did i miss that other figure of $103M right above it there. Thank You!

Back in the day the Bluenose was on more than our dime. Love that colour, it evokes Nova Scotia of yesteryear.

Some mystical, other-worldly music…just what we need for a brief respite from this crazy reality.

To think that we aren't just going "to the Moon," but rather traveling to meet it at an exact point in space... changes everything.

Happy Easter, Montreal. 🐇

So true. And throw in the nefarious impact of religious zealots of all stripes and technological change over that time as well.

Give me some Charleston!

Hey look. There’s Alex!

I’ve been groovin’ to that albums cover of A Taste of Honey lately. A nice Tijuana flavored rendition.

One of my fav areas of the province.

I see a big gorilla. Do you?

Take me to your leader.

Congrats and props to all the beautiful Americans who marched today. We are all Americans on this continent tonight. #nokings

Well done.

Cape Breton western coast 2025

Everyone chill. Summer is coming.

Oh yeah.

All of them are so repulsive.

In three months, Zohran Mamdani has:

-Delivered millions in restitution for workers cheated by fast food and delivery companies
-Cracked down on bad landlords
-Launched the first stage of a universal childcare program
-Fixed thousands of potholes in NYC streets

This is what leadership looks like.

Signs of a toxic workplace:

Lack of transparency/communication
High turnover
Targeting competent people who speak out
Choosing favourites
Negativity and fear
Micromanagement

Sound familiar, #NovaScotia?

My father was a big sci-fi fan. Had hundreds of 50's pulp mags and 60-80's paper backs which I came to read. We watched all the Star Trek series and he would have loved Star Fleet Acad. I miss him but am glad he didn't have to witness this sad turn of events brought about by misogyny and bigotry.
