I can almost guarantee Preston Manning has never given a thought to Indigenous rights in his entire career.

“We must be prepared to defend our sovereignty-not just with military spending, but with a population that is engaged, trained and ready.” Great piece by @petermacleod.bsky.social about how Canada needs a Civil Defence Force where every Canadian has a role to play. 🇨🇦💪 thetyee.ca/Opinion/2025...

Trump’s aggression means it’s time to train thousands more civilians for disaster preparedness. Would you join?

Someone has to confirm for me if this truly exists in Vancouver.

The more I hear about Queens Marque restaurants the less I want to support them. The food is always good but I can't see my way to supporting illegal work practices like this. I see a lot of online chatter about them confiscating tips as well. www.reddit.com/r/halifax/s/...

Waking up to no power threw my entire day off. I am used to easing into the morning with my Nespresso. I've now been up for 2 hours and only getting my coffee now.

Heat Pump Installation Day One: Frantic shovelling out of the driveway, sidewalk and road as the plow did not go down our side yet. Workers currently draining hot water tank - if I'd known it was going today I'd have taken a long luxurious bath.

On a related note, does anyone know oil delivery places that will bring just a small amount? Our usual places does a minimum of 350 litres and we should only need enough for a week or so.

I'm never getting this fucking heat pump, am I. Wednesday was the new date for work to start.

Heat pump conversion rant. We were supposed to have our oil furnace replaced with a heat pump today. This has been months coming. We had the energy assessment done in July, quotes in Sept, all the funding application stuff in Oct/Nov. It's been a journey.

I think it's wishful thinking that the busses will start at noon. Fortunately most places have opted to close so there's less pressure on staff to get there.

Update: it has actually been postponed.

We are supposed to go to a funeral service this afternoon and I'm not sure we will be able to get there. Do funerals ever get postponed? I mean it would be terrible for the family but also awful if no one can make it.

Remember when CBC had a Storm Centre page that listed all the cancellations and closures like this? And then they got rid of it for no stated reason?

Can anyone give an update on road conditions Halisky? Son's school bus is delayed so I could offer to drive him, but I get really nervous on the Circ when weather is bad.

Our artificial tree gave up the ghost so we decided to try a real tree this year. I think we chose well. The cat is on board with this decision.

How long do I wait for someone on FB Marketplace to confirm a pick up time? Last night at 830 was last communication when they said they'd work with our schedule. I suggested a time and it's been radio silence, even with a follow up this morning.
