Are you all ready for 42 public speakers at city hall today? I’m going to try to live post most of them, but also try to bus down to province house for the Shoulder to Shoulder rally, so I may miss a few of them. So far we’re already 5 minutes late getting started.

Great job to the #NovaScotia government 👏 Nothing says “priorities” like cutting funding to community programs while rolling out a 1M$ A.I. traffic monitoring systems.
Meanwhile groceries, power, and water costs keep climbing for every Nova Scotian. But sure, let’s automate the intersections..

Houston is not even trying to hide his grand plan. 1. Run our economy into the ground. 2. Save it by destroying, extracting, exploiting our lands and waters.
This is going to be a pivotal legislative sitting.
