Not sure. It was at the gym, so the short shorts might have been back. My first question was why wasn’t he at province house? Didn’t think to ask what he was wearing 😆

Went to the New Budget Now rally. Amidst the signs, chants & music there was good news: government has walked back SOME cuts.
YET: museums, arts & youth programs, climate action, & much more is still on the chopping block.
Speak out, write your MLAs, keep the pressure on!

If you haven’t seen Becky Druhan’s latest trolling of Houston, I highly recommmd it.
I did not have MLAs using Eminem lyrics to mock the premier in the legislature on my bingo card card. #nspoli
Fun fact, my neighbour heard the minister of education tell a woman she “looks great for 35” today. Thir. Ty. Five. 😱
Much of the centre of the German city of Dresden will be evacuated on Wednesday, after discovery of a large unexploded British World War Two flying bomb.

These cuts are due to mismanagement of funds by this PC govt, removing tolls and a 1% tax cut were the wrong move.
I'm just saying, there's a difference between falling on hard times and having to sell you $15 million dollar home and falling on hard times and having to move into a tent encampment.
We might all be in the same storm but we're not all in the same boat.
Halifax Council debated the future of the Halifax Forum during budget committee after Fillmore brought forward a motion to defer funding for the over $120 million project.

My hopeful take is that it takes about 2-3 months to form a new habit, and some drivers were probably just going the old way on autopilot, because it was their pre-established travel pattern, but they’ll get used to a new route and stop moving the dang traffic barrels.
I had a hoodie on for part of the day, but took it off to experience maximum sunshine for a while.
GFY Timmy! The only thing we have to choose is a better premier next time
What a combo! I love it
Yep, driver of a very, very large black pickup with dark tinted windows yielded to me and then stayed behind me down most of the Allan til it was safe to pass.
He’s been phenomenal!
They were in place when I went through this afternoon and drivers were using the intersection correctly.
If he cared about the young couple who just bought a house being overtaxed he’d try to fix the CAP, not defund arts, culture and tourism. 🤷♀️
Did you just hear Tim Houston's comments?
Remember folks, if you oppose the arts cuts, you don't care about young couples who just bought a house.
Man, I thought politicians were supposed to be good at lying.

At today’s Budget Protest at Province House.
Keep the pressure y’all, this is OUR province and OUR tax dollars for our grants and programs, not for some billionaire to go yachting or rich corporation to reap in circular profits. Arts, Culture & Heritage tell OUR stories and we will fight for them!
“…countries and cities still have the nerve to claim wider roads and highways will improve congestion (they won’t, they’ll induce more driving/traffic) and reduce emissions/pollution (they’ll do the opposite – we’ll have more cars in the same or worse congestion emitting a lot more).”

Rode in short sleeves again just 4 months later.

Sigh! I just hope the fb rumours are all lies somehow, and this was not a kid struck down in front of a bunch of other kids.
It’s gorgeous outside. On my way home I kept smelling barbecue, and now I think I might have to do the same.
