Hey #Nanaimo and #Gander - I want to do a special edition video for each of your community’s small businesses.
Please send this to a business in your town which has been hit by the tariffs AND can ship their products.

Racers and loud unmufflered shitheads running down Terminal Ave in Nanaimo - so fed up with this shit - RCMP do fuck all, and city council balks
Demanded a meeting with the mayor and detachment head - bet they balk

@alberniweather never seen a storm like that in my entire life - lightning every few seconds like a huge strobe lighting up the sky, massive rain, and it went on for hours and hours
-
3am, huge boom with a cell right over us, never seen rain like this - street is flooding, called the fire dept
-
love the after-the-fact notices - yeah, we've been experiencing this for like 3 hours now, thanks for nothing

Does YOUR town need more healthcare workers or tourist $$?
Our local #Nanaimo Infusion event has resulted in 200+ nurses and doctors moving to #VancouverIsland, and more than a 1M dollars in tourism revenue.
Jocelyn and I wrote a guide on how it worked — copy & use it free!

"I saw a TikTok video of something called the Vancouver Island Healthcare Infusion... an invitation for U.S. medical professionals to visit in the hope of convincing some to fill the Island’s dire need for doctors and nurses. Hundreds came.
Watching those TikToks, I thought, Maybe I could live there."

made to the early ferry (though thankfully not the EARLIEST ferry)
This one has the best view from the foot passenger waiting lounge of any.
Looking out to Gabriola Island from Duke Point.
Wish us sunny skies for the ball game!

Does anyone in #Nanaimo know how much it would cost to charter a seaplane from Nanaimo harbour to Holberg, and then back again? Like, roughly.

@tod I mean well done to you and Jocelyn, but talking to a ward manager today at NRGH, they are hemorrhaging nurses and care aides still and she figured by fall beds would be closing
And she also said the recruitment for the new cancer center being built now was shambolic

“[The #Nanaimo Infusion] has provided a noticeable boost in staffing — not only at the hospital, but also at medical clinics across the region, helping address a chronic shortage of care providers.
“The success, according to organizers Tod and Jocelyn Maffin, is the grassroots nature of the Infusion premise, which has since expanded to dozens of other communities nationwide.”

Hell, I'll pay for the costumes - set up some RCMP on Terminal Ave. in Nanaimo to catch the mufflerless asshats who make everyone's lives miserable
Insufferable, pathetic dicks who think making noise is somehow manly
-
Throwing things and swearing a lot - our son's nurse called from Nanaimo hospital, new patient in his room under 'droplet' protocol and would it be ok for him to wear a mask (as an FYI, hardly anyone masks there)
Won't say if it's Covid, but likely
1: Droplet protocol is gaslighting, anything respiratory is aerosol
2: Why isn't that patient isolated?
I'm fuming

Two older women just wandered down our front path, well into our property and started picking from our blackberry and blueberry patch - like WTAF?!
Well dressed Lululemon types thinking it's just fine to trespass and steal our fruit
Seen some weird behaviour last few years from people who appear normal, but that was stunningly audacious - total breaking of social norms, and illegal
-
shit posting, here and Blue Sky, plus contacting a few journalists works. Our son's hospital called this evening because a 'ton of supplies just got flown in, some reporter has been calling the hospital all day' - procedure going ahead this evening
Pressure and embarrassing the hell out of admin idiots

Old growth trees being transported on #bchwy19 near #Nanaimo this morning.
I would guess this is just one tree, likely transported by several truck loads. Looks like a western red cedar, about 200-300 years old.
They are still logging these in previously reserved areas along the Alberni Inlet (Nahmint) and on the North Island. 😢
These were in 8-10ft chunks on the truck. Not sure what their destination would be. Possibly chipoing for pulp/paper or 🤷♂️
A total open fire ban starts today which usually means the forests shut down.
Not sure if that is the case, as the fire danger is not extreme but any reason to stop cutting these elders would be worth it.

For the past 20 years, #Broombusters — an organization that was founded near #QualicumBeach —- has removed #invasive #ScotchBroom across #VancouverIsland. What started as a small effort to protect local #biodiversity has now turned into a crucial part of reducing wildfire risk in the critical urban-wildfire interface, with the City of #Nanaimo partnering with the organization to remove the #InvasiveSpecies from city parks.

On RDN transit to start another semester at VIU! Only a few students on this first early day, and no high school kids yet. By Thursday it should be packed.

aside: wow, Mastodon search has gotten a lot better! (Perhaps this is also a function of @ivory ?)
Just put in: “from:@chris before:2024-09-15 bus”
in the search bar and was immediately delivered the exact thread from 111 days ago!

Guys!! i think my very pointed whining (with spreadsheets!) back in September to my local bus service may have borne fruit.
1) A month ago I sent an email asking for an update on getting me some historical schedules to continue my comparison and (!!) was informed the person in charge of scheduling had moved on…
2) the manager committed to get me the schedules within the month.
3) yesterday I got an email from the manager saying the schedules were ready for me to pickup. (all the way back to 2000!)
4) Today I see this service notice for changes coming January 5 which includes additional buses and, most interestingly *3* changes to the Qualicum-Woodgrove including increased service and 'minor route changes’.
They haven't published the schedule itself yet but hope springs eternal that this could be an improvement that allows me to get back on the bus more often! This fall has been the least I have taken the bus in probably 15 years purely out of deteriorating schedules.
🤞🤞🚋
