Andy Fillmore in effigy rides on the back of our Bike Mayor’s bike

Andy Fillmore in effigy in front of the Shubie Pump Track.

Bike Mayor holds the Mayor’s (paper mache) head waiting to reattach it to the suit-clad body.

Look who turned up at the HRM Community Ride (formerly the Annual Mayor’s Ride)? Riding on the back of the Bike Mayor’s bike. Unfortunately, as soon as he hit a few bumps in the road at the pump track, he lost his head.

A fake mayor Andy Fillmore made from paper mache and holding a sign that says “bike good” sits as the passenger of a bike with a cyclist in a helmet.

I’m at Graham Grove Park in #Dartmouth for Deputy Mayor Tony Mancini’s #Bike Ride.

Mayor Andy Fillmore (sort of) made an appearance. #Halifax

We got off on the wrong foot with the cycling community. Since Dummy Mayor will be at the 12th annual bike ride, be sure tell him how much you appreciate him attending. Be sure to snap a photo shaking his hand! #bikehfx

The Annual Mayor’s bike ride is missing the mayor!

NS ACORN's painted parade banner reading: NO Strong Mayor POWER GRAB! Contact your MLA, premier, councillor, mayor. Keep Halifax Democratic!

Tim Houston and Andy Fillmore are threatening to permanently dismantle Halifax's municipal government if they don't get their way in crushing a downtown bike lane. A transparent excuse to consolidate power, this is undemocratic and unacceptable: today's the day to tell them hands off!

An unsubtly edited black-and-white photo of the 1948 Halifax Natal Day Parade. the street is lined with spectators holding clumsily photoshopped signs reading "Keep Halifax democratic: we voted for a council" "15% is not a mandate" "Hands off Halifax! NO to Strong Mayor Powers" and "Fillmore's power grab is a betrayal of our city". A sheepish Mayor Fillmore passes by in a decorated convertible. source: natalday.org

Halifax! Say NO to Fillmore's power grab. Bring a sign to the Natal Day Parade!

Hey Halifax! Natal Day is a great opportunity to show the mayor how you feel about the dismantling of our municipal government. Bring a sign to the parade!

We voted in a council. Say no to Fillmore's strong mayor power-grab; let's keep Halifax democratic! #halisky #bikehfx #HandsOffHalifax

Absolutely shameful pandering to the far-right. Look, I love Canada but no one is trying to nuke the place. This is just shoveling money we could be using for social services into the furnace of Lockheed Martin, Raytheon and Palantir.

MASSIVE WIN! @acorncanada.bsky.social members have forced banks to cap NSF fees at $10 (down from $48)!

This victory will save low/moderate income people $5.1 BILLION over 10 years.

Changes take effect March 2026, but they're pushing banks to adopt early.

People power works! ✊

The usual flag of Sweden, except the right side has been misaligned, similar to Halifax's Windsor-Chebucto intersection
