Ok. Why doesn't #NewBrunswick have a wellness tax credit like PEI? $1,000?!

Yikes in a city that is pushing density + multi-unit residential bldgs as much as #Fredericton is, not having #recycling in all apartments sorted before removing the community bins is a pretty big fail? People who want to recycle should have an option, it shouldn’t be up to a landlord’s compliance.

I love Green Day so much and I’m so very happy they performed‘American Idiot’ because, well…you know… 😁

This is really sad... we actually need to test and fix the environments we are living, working, and playing in... cbc.ca/news/health/radon-gas-cancer-screenings-9.7058488

I am so done with being mansplained to. And I think it’s getting worse.

Did you all hear about this $3 meal the Secretary of Agriculture recommended?

This is pretty sad. When Freddy had ZERO options for walk-ins during Covid, Minto welcomed so many of us... no glares, no questions, just care. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Sadly, so many people (especially when the value is on short term gains over long term ones) don't tend to act on climate without regulations… This is an economist showing a lack of human understanding. www.cbc.ca/player/play/...

I really wish someone in the media would flip this around: "Group dashes community hopes to replace 100 year old middle school - with no ventilation or fields - in only remaining central location." Look at it from the perspective of students and staff who are waiting on a much needed new school.

What do you think... will centre left Liberals cross over to the NDP or Greens?

spot on ⬇️

Our community deserves a middle school at the NBEX grounds. Figure it out, please? www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

It’s frustrating to watch interviews like the one between the @thedailyshow.com’s Jon Stewart & @elizkolbert.bsky.social tonight, suggesting we don’t know the solutions to the #ClimateCrisis, & better solutions aren’t “politically viable.” WE KNOW THE SOLUTIONS, AND ONLY CORRUPTION MAKES THEM HARD.

We need more of this in Canada atm…. Toronto, Vancouver, see what NYC is doing?!

Serious question: how much #upfrontcarbon does it take to build a pipeline?

And the least climate and sustainability friendly budget since the Harper years passes. Sigh. ICYMI: Canada burned this summer, trees burned, and they cut the 2 billion trees, planting them, program. Also goes against Canada’s 2030 Nature Strategy.

Omg Tony’s is closing…. 😢 Our beautiful downtown is changing too much. Please. Go downtown, spend your $ in our local businesses. It’s a hard time…

Someone should do an #EmbodiedCarbon assessment of the proposal natural gas plant... when considering #UpfrontCarbon, is it actually an overall reduction? "The plant would allow an overall net reduction in greenhouse gas emissions, the utility says." www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Hey US of A. When your rewrite your constitution (hopefully, in short order) can you remove the presidential pardon clause? Plz and muchos gracias.

HUGE.

Blue Jays fever (started this summer) has my soccer loving boy wanting to play baseball… there really is something about Canadian pride…

Congratulations to this year’s @clean50.bsky.social honourees! I am delighted, honoured, and still in a bit of shock to have been included in this year’s cohort. See the list of 2026 Clean50 honourees here: clean50.com/honourees/?a... #GreenBuildings #HealthyBuildings #ClimateHope #NewBrunswick

Serious question #Fredericton: where can you hang downtown on a Friday night that's not a bar/pub or restaurant? Where are the cafes that are open after 6 or 7? #ThirdSpaces #Vibrant #Cities

I love fall in #NewBrunswick. Clear blue skies, fresh, crisp air, the colours changing, farmers markets glories.

Yikes… is this where the UK is at?

Who seriously would rather have the new Freddy middle school up at the top of the roundabout at Bishop’s Drive? So almost no kids can walk/bike/roll to school? And have to cross a highway? Responding on here to some wild FB commentary re #FREX lands news.

Smoke is coming in Freddy area... be careful out there tonight... firesmoke.ca/forecasts/cu...

I am so happy I started crying. Thank you, City of #Fredericton council! We need this area redeveloped and urgently need a new, south side core middle school and housing. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/... #Schools #NBPoli

How wonderful would it be if the Wolastoq (StJ River) had beach access for swimming right downtown? Paris, now Chicago. Clearly it’s possible! www.cbc.ca/radio/asitha...

Economics... I've spent literally my entire career in sustainability and people always hide behind economics. Know what costs the PROVINCE? Paying for people's healthcare, illnesses that are linked to enviro toxins that can be controlled. Do the work and clean it up. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Fall fruit and veg, with the spices, may be my favourite. #CosyTime

Are people really complaining about the school breakfast program? I’m so happy no kid will have to start the school day hungry. Who wouldn’t want that?

Iconic moment at the Downton Abbey premiere

Reposting this again: #NewBrunswick, where are the #GreenBuilding #Sustainability #Design people? Let's connect!

… the apathy is real here. Is it Covid fatigue? Cost of living? Simmer? All of the above? Or being comfortable for so long and not wanting to disrupt the status quo?

I have research expertise in biophilia/biophilic design and an MSc in Env Psyc. Couple of things here: 1. Yes, this is a problem (in Freddy, too) 2. #Nature is more than green space (blue space is huge) 3. SJ has some beautiful microexp of nature (see next comment) 1/2 www.cbc.ca/player/play/...

#Fredericton: as of now, there are no #SchoolSports this upcoming year. Please speak out! #NBPoli #ThisIsRidculous

Spain calling it like it is. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/a...

#NewBrunswick: staying out of the woods is a small sacrifice to limit the potential of catastrophic wildfires.

Hey everyone? This is the planet telling us we have made her sick. It’s climate change. Maybe it’s not popular (?) to call it as it is, but that’s what is happening. It’s not just a blip. Just look at how many days soccer has been cancelled this summer (I know!)

Our province is on fire + the gov is investing in a new gas + diesel plant... in an ecologically sensitive area. Come on? Greenhouse gases, like those that will be emitted from this plant, upfront and operation., are directly linked to the state of our forests. Efficiency, sufficiency, renewables.

Seriously. (note: the Beaverton is satire)

How dare Tim Houston ruin my child’s favourite summer activity: burning down the province of Nova Scotia

I think closing down our public forests warrants breaking my SM ban for August (on Bluesky only). I published a peer reviewed paper on closing down parks during COVID, impacts on health, and what community design should be doing. (Hint: more nature everywhere) Giving this situation some thoughts…

The smoke comes, the heat comes, the green spaces close. No walking in the woods allowed. Freaked? Yes, but more angry, not at the nec measures our gov is taking (👏 to @susanholtnb.bsky.social for believing in the good of NBers and not threatening a $25k fine) but at how powerless I feel. Ugh.

Odell park, our largest #UrbanForest, being closed due to #wildfire risk is a pretty big deal. This is #ClimateChange and I’m sad to believe, the new normal. #Fredericton #NBpoli

I’m breaking my social media ban for August to ask this important q: Why does #EastHants NS, pop ~23k, have an #AquaticsCentre and yet it’s so hard for #Fredericton (pop >63k, metro >108k)?

Taking a social media break for August. See you in September!
