Pride wasn't designed to be a celebration. It was a demand for dignity, safety, and the right to exist. That history belongs in every conversation about leadership and inclusion. 🧵 #PrideMonth #InclusiveLeadership #2SLGBTQIA #NovaScotia #AntiOppression #NonprofitLeadership

I’m struggling to understand the Alberta separatist logic here: If Alberta left Canada, what exactly would make BC more cooperative about pipelines? 🇨🇦 At a time when global stability and trade relationships matter, this feels self-defeating for both Alberta and Canada #cdnpoli #politics #Canada

Interesting concept. Nice to see elected leaders in the area coming together around some commonalities. #stateoftheregion #collaboration #multilevelgovernment

Spring took its time but we’re fully there now! Today was the first mow and it was simply not possible to wait any longer, even though the bees were really enjoying the dandelions - what a slog getting through. Grateful for the wet spring after the long drought of 2025 though. #gardeningsky #dogsky

🧵 Thread: When our institutions bypass the communities they're meant to serve The $30M fracking deal between Dal & NS Province has experts speaking out—but this is about more than fracking. It's about who gets shut out when decisions get made. #NovaScotia #Reconciliation #climateJustice #NSPoli

Big milestone: I've signed my first official client under Trish McCourt Consulting! 🎉 I've been supporting nonprofit leaders throughout my career (8+ years as an ED), but launching my own practice means I can now focus entirely on what I'm most passionate about: #NonprofitLeadership

Spring has sprung. It’s been a long winter. #spring #springflowers #crocuses

I've published an open letter on NS's 2026-27 budget. $130.4M in cuts to community grants. 127 programs eliminated. 160 reduced. That's 2% of provincial spending—but 100% of the lifeline for our most vulnerable neighbours. 🧵 Thread below. #NSBudget2026 #NSPoli #NovaScotia

MP Chris d’Entremont just texted David Cochrane while he was on air confirming that he is joining the government caucus. This is good news for Annapolis-Acadie and Canadian politics. www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

What do 16,000 job losses do to our unemployment rate? Is this really good for our economy?

Talk about doubling down, PP!! The leader of the Opposition continues to double-down on lies and exploiting victims for his political gain. I’m so disgusted in these continued performative politics… #canadianpolitics

What the actual F$&@ !? www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Please take the time to read my latest on the lessons we can learn from those who resisted the Nazis. What was the spark that separated those who resisted from those who went along with tyranny? We need to learn how to build resistance in this dark age. charlieangus.substack.com/p/be-that-gu...

Any #gardening #plantsky #floweringpool takers? Is this variety of japenese-like dogwood going to flower for this first time this year? It’s season three since planting…

It’s spring! It’s spring! It’s really truly spring! #gardening #gardensky #plantsky #flowersofsky

Earlier spring flowers…

More spring flowers! #springflowers #blueskygardens

"On Tyranny" is a #1 NYT bestseller again. I wish the moment were different. But I’m glad the book is useful. And grateful for all the kind words about putting the 20 lessons to work. snyder.substack.com/p/twenty-les...

I don’t know what’s going on, but my human has been acting VERY suspicious lately. She comes home smelling like a dog named SYLVIA, muttering fancy words, and dramatically waving her arms around. I tried to investigate, but apparently, I’m not allowed on stage—rude. #myhumanisweird #SylviaThePlay

Why are we creating the role of a Fentanyl “czar” in #Canada? We are a democracy with an elected leader. Not an empire. Language is important! Are we bowing down to the almighty ruler? I am so disgusted.

Hello… hello… hello?… I’m right here… hello? #dogsofbluesky #dogs #springerspaniels

Chretien is what good leaders are… he’s not perfect, he’s not loved by all - good leaders aren’t afraid to be disliked when they stand up for their values - he’s smart, outspoken, and dedicated to the cause he believes in. He’s worth listening to www.theglobeandmail.com/opinion/arti...
