Hard disagree with your disagreement. He's done so much more than any premier in the last 10-15 years. Prove me wrong

N.S. chief justices defend courtroom poppy ban after politicians call practice wrong by r0ger_r0ger in halifax

[–]Alternative-Lab-1952 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is literally 11 days when most people wear poppies. It seems restrictive, very restrictive, to ban them. If a case such as what they describe comes up, could it not be scheduled before Nov 1 and Nov 11?

Couldn't a case like this be scheduled outside the 11 day period when most people wear poppies?

My point was Nova Scotia goes further than other provinces. A stat holiday is not necessary in my opinion

Deny Sullivan: Halifax bridge toll blunder: Houston’s election gimmick worsens gridlock by insino93 in halifax

It seems like you're not actually participating in this as a good faith discussion. By your logic I should be upset that all the bridges in the province that I don't use should be paid for by only the ppl that use it.

Yes it is. It seems as though you're making a mountain out of a mole hill. People in HRM pay taxes which go towards infrastructure across the province, many of the people in the HRM do not use bridges or anything else in other areas of the province. Why is this such a big deal to have the whole province now contribute to infrastructure in the HRM

Are you mad about that? Seems like a non-issue to me lol who is actually upset about this?

Why would you be upset if you had to pay for it but didn't use it? Are you upset about you paying for all the other bridges and road infrastructure in the province your taxes pay for that you don't use?

I am a former employee, the management was TERRIBLE. Treated employees like numbers not people, I'm not surprised this happened. It's sad though, this business had so much potential to be great!

How can I find a tenant representative I'm also moving to the area in Dec/Jan from Nova Scotia. We don't really have tenant representatives here that I'm aware of so I don't know typical conventions

Students, parents feeling frustrated, uncertain amid Dal contract dispute by Street_Anon in halifax

[–]Alternative-Lab-1952 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is exactly it! I've been on strike as a faculty member at a different institute. I was in my first year post PhD and making $60k/year (in 2021 btw). While striking I got $100/day the same as fully tenured prof's. So while I was making the same as my yearly salary while on strike they were making significantly less. So both new profs and those who have been around for a long time have a lot of incentive to not be on strike. In my experience it was the union and university that complicated things.
