Probs right to ban teenagers from accessing Bluesky. It’s depressing enough being a teenager without being informed of the death of every single beloved pet every day.

My cat is very demanding, and I read online that this means they are bored of their food and want you to bring them more variety of foods, and she liked them, but this did not work and now I suspect this article was written by a cat.

Imagine talking about any other public service this way. Does the government keep public hospitals “afloat”? What about when it gave Marine Atlantic $169 million to support its operations in 24/25? The media does the bidding of those who want to private Canada Post when they adopt this framing.

According to the NSGEU, the Houston government is ending all remote work for provincial employees effective April 20:
Dear member,

The union has been made aware that the government has terminated all remote work arrangements, effective April 20th.

This means all flexible work arrangements will come to an end and people will have to report to a central office, with the many of those located in the downtown core of Halifax.

This comes at a time when the government is facing a $1.4-billion deficit, which the Premier has already stated that government will be the first to feel the pain. It’s clear now that what he meant is that civil servants will be the first to feel this pain as they will now incur extra travel time and gas costs - especially for those members living in rural areas - not to mention parking and other travel-related expenses. Parking and traffic in the downtown core is already at a crisis level and this will only increase that chaos, and for what savings? The government has offered no evidence or statistics to suggest this will make for a more effective or efficient workplace.

This has all the markings of a premier trying to look tough to his corporate friends while punishing hard working civil servants. Many of these same civil servants were called heroes for doing their work remotely during the pandemic, while ensuring services and programming continued uninterrupted. Now because of the choices this government has made to sink the province into the largest deficit in history the Premier is desperate to posture and spin his way into looking like he is doing something. 

Any member impacted should reach out to the NSGEU Resource Centre at 902-424-4063 or toll free at 1-877-556-7438.

The union understands the negative impact this will have on thousands of members and their families and we are ready to stand up against this government and advocate on your behalf against this arbitrary and disruptive decision.

8 Republicans joined the Senate Dems to block the Motion to Proceed which keeps this bill from moving forward as a single package. The goal now is to get Republicans to agree to split this package into separate bills so that some funding can be passed but the DHS package can be altered.

Haven’t seen this level of cuts since Harper; 40,000 public sector job losses. Also cuts to Stats Canada to the frequency of data? Remember when Harper cut long form census? More capital spending on the military than on housing. More capital on military than housing. Red flags.
