Reacting (badly) to good questions from CBC’s @michaeltgorman.bsky.social, NS Premier Houston falsely suggested it was Trump-like to report on his appointment of a former campaign manager as a judge. Then Houston attacked the media for doing their jobs. Just. Like. Trump. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

I just got confirmation that Tim Houston’s PCs cut the entire Writers in the Schools program.

This man is cutting a program that lets children meet and learn from local authors (among many many other things) so he can spend $5 million teaching civil servants to use AI.

Attacking reporters and ascribing malice to legitimate questions are part of a growing comms strategy among politicians who abhor accountability.

"Houston took issue with a question about whether, at a time when his government is looking to trim upwards of 1,000 full-time equivalent positions and a sundry of programs are being cut this year.....

Another politician doesn't want his office budget questioned at a time when they're cutting budgets that will deeply affect others. Anyone else seeing a pattern? www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

First take tolls off cobequid pass.
Then remove tolls off bridge.
Then reduce HST.
(Free parking at the hospital I won’t discuss here, but it’s been a shit show)

THEN scratch head and glean clever new ways to get money to pay for stuff.

Like shitting your pants and changing your tshirt.
