The municipality is seeking feedback from passengers about accessibility on Halifax Transit conventional bus, Access-A-Bus, and ferry services. Your feedback is essential to ensuring transit is inclusive and accessible for everyone. Find out more and complete the survey at brnw.ch/21wZ9yu

On a Winter Event like today, where wet sidewalks and MUPs will freeze over, @hfxgov.bsky.social what is the Definition of End of Event for the Time clock to address accessibility to start?

you would have thought the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic would have won Best Newcomer Museum

Today I got to the Metro Atwater in time to see the "special" constables of the STM kicking at least three unhoused/marginalized people out into the blizzard. I am told that this is to improve my (because I'm a STM user) "sense of security". I'm not feeling secure. I'm feeling enraged and sad...

With tourism floundering the White House launches new slogan highlighting why Canadians should consider visiting.

"If we have to choose between the USA and Denmark here and now, we choose Denmark, we choose NATO, we choose the Kingdom of Denmark, we choose the EU." Greenland's Prime Minister Jens-Frederik Nielsen. Translation and video @Reuters.

Pedestrian friendly Spring Garden Road 😢 #halisky

lol

Guys, I'm happy to stipulate that the Poilievre Conservatives are the worst choice. I voted Liberal in 2025 to avoid them too. But the threat of an immoral government doesn't mean having an amoral one is a good thing.

#hfxws similar experience for me, with one caveat, i did encounter more ice at the edge of pedestrians crossings, with a couple unmarked one pretty much ice-rinks. but generally good walk

is there a contest for worse Canadian mayor that i'm not aware of?

….theeeyyyyyyy’re comingggggggg 📸

I'm told the man they arrested may have actually been dressed as a giraffe, not a leopard. I regret this error.

Very rarely in the building codes/ standards world will you see a map with this stark of a contrast.

once in a while calling services when they ask for my name I will get after "do you need someone that speak French to serve you?" like if i called your anglo line, i'm fine. but today I understood why: When I say my name they hear "François" in there and they think it's "blahblah Français blahblah"

On a short visit to downtown #VictoriaBC today, I saw three people riding mobility scooters on the protected bike and roll lanes. Only got photos of two. You don't have to ride a bicycle to use 'bike lanes'! #yyj #pwd #bcpoli

Police Absolve Man for Dangerous Driving After Finding Out He Did Give The Little "Whoopsie" Wave.

yikes. also looks like this happened before the 15 from Halifax had gone through, so it is stopped in Rivière-du-Loup. have to assumed people will need to be buses to destination.

Overnight, Via #14, th Halifax bound Ocean hit trailers parked too close to the rails, st alexandre de kamouraska, 10 minutes from Rivière-du-Loup

#hfxws Just went for quick errand and though some more sidewalks had been salted, it seems that Crossings are not part of the mandate, so that's fun.

I highly recommend “sound on” for this new angle

Never miss a Uytae video.

Sobeys special pricing: I already think discounts for multiple purchases are discrimination, but now a Surchage for only buying one. Regular $6.79 buy one $8.29! How is this even allowed. Sure food processor will come to justify

I love getting snow overnight and having both of your sidewalks cleared by 7:30am the next day. Real cities plow their sidewalks.

#hfxws peninsula core walk report. Conditions are degrading by the minute, my last five minutes were in full penguin walking mode. in typical Halifax fashion, zero preventive measures for walking and cycling surface. Plenty of salt on major drivers roads- side roads however different story

The Cardiff Lions do an annual Drag Rugby charity match for children’s charities and it’s as beautiful as you imagined

la fin du 2e article 😱 « La montée du modèle de livraison [...] a-t-elle des impacts sur la #sécuritéroutière ? Livrer des dizaines de colis par jour dans des quartiers qu’on ne connaît pas bien, les yeux rivés sur le GPS [...] ne vérifient pas [...] aptitudes de conduite – ni même leur permis »

Morning Halifax Bird people. note that the pond at Public Gardens looked fairly crowded this mourning including the return of the M Wood Duck, and the M Pintail, likely more just quick walking glance. @bikehfxlobby.bsky.social @suzannerent.bsky.social

Non seulement c’est possible de bien déneiger le nouvel aménagement cyclable à l’intersection Christophe-Colomb / Bellechasse, mais regardez à quel point c’est bien pour les piétons : ils n’ont pas à traverser un lac ou un montage de slush.

When you build a world where kids can't walk anywhere to get candy this is a natural outcome. Very glad everyone is okay. This is very scary. 😬

Driver Perfectly Describes Pedestrian They Couldn't See.

Go Kakapo!

this was such a sad story. my grandmother was a primary school teacher at the time, she lost a significant number of students in the fire.

This statement was posted exclusively on X, which is also the primary platform Canada's AI Minister posts on @evansolomon.bsky.social has 215,000 followers on X, but only 1,200 on Bluesky. These people just can't let their vanity follower counts go, it's really as simple as that

60 workers at Ubisoft’s studio in Halifax, Nova Scotia voted to form a union. In response, Ubisoft announced it was closing the entire studio. Maybe it’s time to look into the millions they get in public money for operating in Canada.

#hfxws Lovely sunny morning walk. Conditions in peninsula core much improved. Still a few ice spots in places that were never treated, but those are far and few. the city seems to have finally found the Common's Salt shaker, so that was a big improvement.

Red tail and light rail

So for Drivers, they do crossing maintenance on week-ends to minimize impact, for transit users they wait for rush-hour once everyone is back to work after the holidays.

Please enjoy my cartoon for Thursday's Toronto Star

one of the things i hate most about this persistent line of argument is the implication that any of these actions would be fine if groceries were cheaper

#hfxws just went for quick walk in core, and surface that weren't totally cleared yesterday do not feel great, it's not bad but i did feel quite a few slip underfoot when i was trying to get momentum. this also applies to streets. note i'm glass wearer and with mist had low visibility... (1/2)

I know we're only a week in, but this is my highlight of 2026 so far.

Govt. Building a $150,000,000 highway: "We may have 57 peer-reviewed studies showing it's bad, but we gotta build it." Govt. Building a $15,000 bike lane: "This homeowner who bought their house for $3 in 1974 is worried e-bikers will literally eat their babies, so we'll cancel the project."

awesome google maps find

@hfxgov.bsky.social Please watch, and educate staff that a bike can be a Mobility Device for some residents.
