The MacKay is backed up to the Big Mall (on the Circ) if you're tying to get to HFX. And side-streets in Dartmouth are VERY busy if you're trying to get to the Macdonald Bridge, HFX-Bound #HFXTraffic

Fascists hate comedy because satire exposes their absurdity. Authoritarians demand fear & obedience - laughter punctures both.

Just 1.3mm in my gauge this morning. Fog and low cloud clears for nice afternoon today. Quite a bit of sun again Thursday before a rain system moves in Thursday night. The rain ends on Friday... I'm hoping for 20mm. A mostly sunny weekend then a fine end to September.

I can’t believe such a wretched, morbidly obese, drug addicted, deviant, illiterate, sexual predator found the secret sauce to turn half our country into absolute lunatics. Turning a blind eye daily to the most rampant corruption in American history as they genuflect before him.

“In Finland, the number of homeless people has fallen sharply. Those affected receive a small apartment & counselling with no preconditions. 4 out of 5 people affected make their way back into a stable life. And all this is CHEAPER than accepting homelessness.” It costs a lot less to house people.

For #WorldAlzheimersDay, here’s a watercolour by my uncle, a very talented amateur artist who for the last year of his life couldn’t remember how to hold a pencil. A bastard of a disease.

HRP lay charges in Halifax hate crime incidents thelaker.ca/hrp-lay-char...

Spotting a collision in WOODSIDE... It's right at the intersection of Pleasant and the Circ/Hwy 111 Starting to see some back-ups forming. Avoid that if you can. And if you have any details - hmu - or call us: 902-222-3802 #HFXTraffic

A listener is reporting a collision on Westwood Blvd near Upper Tantallon Sounds like it's near the St. Margaret's Centre Apparently this is making it hard for traffic in the area to get onto the HWY 103 (near the exit 5 ramp) #HFXTraffic

New book sheds light on WW2 harbour tragedy kept under official cloak of secrecy www.ctvnews.ca/atlantic/nov... A new book is shedding light on the mystery of a Second World War marine tragedy that was kept under a cloak of secrecy despite decimating the ranks of Halifax’s harbour pilots.

Geez...2 collisions near exit 10 on hwy 102...heck of a way to start the week!

From RCMP NS: Due to a structure fire, Halifax Regional Fire & Emergency and RCMP officers are evacuating residents on Hanwell Drive, Middle Sackville. The evacuation includes civic numbers 25 through to 119 Hanwell Dr. Residents are being asked to stay clear of the area.

5pm update: so far the heavier rain is falling along the Atlantic coast. About 10mm so far in Halifax. 18mm in Mahone Bay. Only a few mm along the Annapolis Valley so far.

Update on the recent rainfall ... as of 5pm. About 8 mm (1/3") around Halifax so far. 2.5 mm (1/10") around the Long Lake Fire. Much more needed. At least fire behaviour there today is much less aggressive.

Nova Scotia Power: Another untrustworthy corporation which did not protect customer data.🍁 "There have been repeated high profile data breaches in recent years, including at 23andMe, Bank of America, Ticketmaster, a slew of hospitals, and closer to home, the MOVEit and Sobeys hacks." #NovaScotia #ns

www.cbc.ca/news/canada/... In 2022, there were 586 people without a proper home in the municipality. That number increased to 1,132 in 2024, marking a 93 per cent increase in those two years.

Reminder to any Halisky folks with drones Airspace over wildfire is restricted to those actively fighting the fire. This includes drones Cool photos are absolutely not worth impeding firefighting efforts Potential consequences are up to $100 000 and/or up to a year in jail

Just saw this on the side of a barn in Eastern Passage NS - what a beauty!

That’s @deAdder 's Take: #cdnpoli www.hilltimes.com/cartoon-dead...

Active military members were just hit with terrorism-related charges over their intent to seize land and create an anti-government militia. I did some digging, spoke with experts like @amaramarasingam.bsky.social, and learned more than what you'll hear from the RCMP press release alone:

Seriously?! WTF is #Alberta so embarrassing?! “Thanks to Smith’s weak and chaotic leadership, vaccine skepticism and open disregard for public health experts, the number of cumulative measles cases had as of Friday passed 1,179 in Alberta.” #vaccinesWork #cdnpoli #Canada

As the U.S. retreats from green energy, there are even more opportunities for Canada. Fossil fuels are the past Green energy is the global future. #cdnpoli #canada #oil #gas #coal

Wow talk about a rapid increase in investment! PM Carney, Team Canada and the Canadian people are the reason this is happening. Foreign investors are seeing our buy/build Canadian movement and they know investing here is a good investment. #elbowsup international.canada.ca/en/global-af...

Yes - #Canada def needs more #MikeMyers!! Love this guy! Great #Canadian. And T/U #PaulHunter #CBC. Great interview. youtu.be/Sq_xp_DhWr0?...

Oh man - Project Arrow - an EV made almost entirely in Canada - now that's what I'm talking about! youtu.be/GjkSe-5Zr-c?...

looks like vehicle Fire is near Chen's Convenience - so it IS right in that busy stretch on the beaverbank road #HFXTraffic

Seeing reports of a vehicle fire on the Beaver Bank Road Not sure where that is - but it's ALWAYS busy on the BB Road between Millwood and Majestic... So if the fire is on that stretch - expect even bigger delays #HFXTraffic

I have a day off and need to grab more piñata supplies. So, I’m going to leave you with the TikTok video I made that was removed for “viol*nt extr*mism”. It wasn’t clown Elon’s fault because the video I posted of him on a loop was fine. 🤷🏼‍♀️ Enjoy! #TeslaTakedown #MuskMustFall #Ottawa #cdnpoli

Oh, ya. Very brave. So good people are willing to do this. Thank you!

Yup - I've def noticed that anti-vaxxers & climate change deniers are typically uber confident while simultaneously being woefully uneducated abt science/the facts related to the topic at hand. No surprise to me that the study shows the most ignorant r the most confident.

PM Carney: "As the most European of the non-European countries, Canada looks first to the European Union to build a better world. And that's what today is about. It's about building on our triple alignment of values, of interests, and of trust." #cdnpoli

We've got Woodside Ferry Cancellations this AM #HFXTraffic

The Traffic Map is showing a collision on the Bedford HWY It looks like it's inbound, just before the WSX. Back-ups are just past Bayview right now, but expect those delays to grow. And if you have any info on this, send us a TXT or VM: 902-222-3802 #HFXTraffic

ICE looking more and more like the American Gestpo.
