This is unbelievable! Thank you, Adrienne Arsenault! I am a retired CBC employee who is saddened to see how far out of touch the current executive team is. Catherine Tait is an embarrassment. Cutting bonuses should have been the first item considered. Show leadership!

And yet the Houston government will not enact regulations for the Coastal Protection Act to protect our beaches. While gov’t dithers, beaches are being destroyed by some landowners.

Although the government does not say much, the Covid surge has begun! For Heavens sake wear a mask and get your shot. It’s for everyone’s wellbeing……
Two Nova Scotians died every day in the month of November. Yet we heard nothing from @TimHoustonNS @ChenderClaudia or @zachchurchill We deserve better. It's #TellTimTuesday - please make your calls. 902 424 6600 docs.google.com/document/d/1Nk…
It's inconceivable that the CBC would announce hundreds of layoffs before Christmas and not also be able to say there are no bonuses to be paid. The opposition will jump on this, as they should, but so should the government. It's simply not a tenable position for CBC.
Adrienne Arsenault almost made CBC CEO Catherine Tait swallow her tongue with her brilliant question about Christmas bonuses.
Does @TimHoustonNS know that two Nova Scotians died from Covid every day in November? Does he know that 88% of all NS Covid deaths have occurred under his leadership? It's #TellTimTuesday. Let him know: 902 424 6600 docs.google.com/document/d/1Nk…
One of our brand new releases just in time for the holidays, that will make a wonderful gift! Atlantic Canadians Experience History In Their Own Words in Eyewitness. Watch Global's interview with Author Rick Howe here ->globalnews.ca/video/rd/ae7ab…
It seems pretty hard to have vaccine conversations these days. I do anyway. There is a whole ton of misunderstanding out there. Even among people I know who are smart and usually aware. Public misunderstanding happens when public health stops communicating. 2/8
I can’t get over that Public Health & govts chose vaccine-only approaches to covid (which hasn’t worked so far), and vax coverage among all age groups is abysmal Here’s a thought: if they communicated long-term risk of reinfection, uptake would be better Ignorance isn’t bliss
If someone could explain the scam behind all these fine-looking but fictitious young ladies looking for love who like every single post or reply I make, I’d appreciate it. Would be nice not having to block them every time.
So true.
