Trump threatens to rename Lake... -
The only way to make change is to make the leaders uncomfortable. Nova Scotians are attempting to do just that.

Oh byes I am pissed. Here's what I wrote to my MLA, the blameless Claudia Chender, and here's where I will be next Tuesday and Wednesday instead of working on my next novel.
Rally images stolen from Ecology Action Centre & Page 1 Theatre. Some email wording stolen from nsarts.ca.
Remainder of email's alt-text (will put rest in reply): Cuts to youth-focused arts programming and education will negatively impact our literacy. Especially after the disruptions of Covid, our students don't need to have enrichment opportunities taken away.
In the '90s, I worked for the Writers' Federation of Nova Scotia. Amongst my many jobs was running the Writers' In The Schools program. WITS involves a small investment (only $65,000, which I notice has not been increased since I ran this program 30 years ago) and puts local authors into their classrooms to support a love of reading and allow students to see themselves in the books they are reading.

#RCMP issued an #apology on September 7, 2024, for the historic use of #StreetChecks and other harmful interactions with members of the #African #NovaScotian community. It was an apology too long in coming, for treatment that was, in the words of Rev. Lennett Anderson, “dehumanizing and tragic.” And the RCMP's history suggests we should be deeply skeptical that the proposed action plan will be even close to what is required to remedy these grave injustices.
In his 2019 report, written for the #NovaScotia #HumanRights Commission, Dr. Scot Wortley defines street checks as any occasion in which civilians are stopped by #police and subjected to intrusive questions, and their personal information collected into a database. He confirmed what community members have known for years: people of African descent in the #Halifax region are almost six times more likely to face street checks.
It took five years after the release of this report for the RCMP to apologize for the harms caused. They also committed to an action plan, developed in consultation with members of 13 African Nova Scotian communities and the Association of #Black #SocialWorkers.

Tim Houston really just said "Do Me Next!"
You bet #uniforvotes is on the way. A winter election won't save you from flagging polls and massive voter turnout.
