PM @mark-carney.bsky.social -- would be great if protecting the #ChignectoIsthmus from flooding is being considered. Sea level rise and increasing risk of storms could cut the links between Halifax and the rest of the country -- huge damage to supply chains, like we saw in BC in 2021.
I really donβt care who pays for this, just get it done so we are not completely cut off from the rest of Canada.
