Hi @TimHortons, this might seem really insignificant to your employees but this is actually really significant to wheelchair users. It sucks that accessibility isn’t a priority for you in a high pedestrian traffic area. Do better.

Narrator: “In the privatized power distribution system, Nova Scotians continue to get hosed. These are their stories.”
Dear all ER and inpatient doctors: STOP TELLING PATIENTS TO FOLLOW UP IN A DAY OR WEEK WITH A SPECIALIST. It’s literally not possible. Thanks a bunch 🥰
I had the nicest anesthesiologist ever today. She made being at the hospital for a procedure that I was really nervous about so so so much easier. Plus, amazing to finally have a female anesthesiologist for the first time ever! (I’ve now had 6 surgeries) No medical PTSD today 💃🏻
does the whole loblaws discount walk back not feel like performative “aren’t we great for listening? we care so much about you plebs!” corporate bullshit to anyone else?
Sometimes I think I like living in rural NS. But then other times, like today, I’m reminded of how much homophobia and transphobia there is and how so many people think it’s okay to just casually & openly hate the LGBTQ+ community. I hate it here.
For students to reach their full potential, schools must be spaces free of discrimination, where all students are celebrated, valued and feel safe to express who they are without fear. #NoSpaceForHate #nspoli
I have a medical appt on Tues that has to be in person. I’m dreading it but can’t reschedule bc it’s too important. Why am I dreading it? Bc of the lack of covid precautions in place in our hospitals & the reality that I will prob encounter unmasked cov+ people. Thanks @HealthNS.
Yep. All of this.
Because they’re all fishermen from Yarmouth.

Went for blood work today and they were running 45 mins behind. There was only one phlebotomist working, she wasn’t wearing a mask (my husband & I were). She said that her co-workers are all out sick. I WONDER WHY, LADY. /s
Love when my prov govt invests $$ to pass the housing crisis off to its citizens instead of investing in more affordable housing. Love this for NS. 🙄

At what age does Ryan Gosling have to change his name to Ryan Goose
Yarmouth: minimal rain overnight, a few flashes of lightning, no wind, no flooding and yet… no power since 3am. Make it make sense @nspowerinc.
Sunny and blue sky, so naturally the power is out 🙄
My biggest takeaway from the Titan story is that we absolutely could have coordinated, multinational efforts to ensure no migrant dies crossing the sea and we choose not to.
A 🧵 Please read and retweet. The state of healthcare in Nova Scotia. @TimHoustonNS. "On Thursday June 15, 2023 around 9:00pm, the Middleton Fire Department and EHS were paged to a cardiac arrest. The address given was the Soldiers Memorial Hospital Emergency Department. 1/7
I keep seeing folks saying that a trans lifestyle is being shoved down their throat. I have never had a trans person knock on my door and try to convert me. I have never had a trans person leave lit on my car. I’ve never had a trans person threaten me with fire if I don’t agree.
I am not less-abled. I am not alternatively-abled. I am not differently-abled. I am not uniquely-abled. Stop trying to come up with cutesy ways to avoid saying the word disabled like you're trying to curse around a two-year-old. I am disabled. Say the word. It's not a bad word

So for folks jumping in my mentions being like “ *sob* don’t call the cops when you need them then!”, you’re literally missing the point and just trying to be inflammatory. Also, cops generally DONT prevent crime. They simply respond to it. 🤷🏻♀️
You know - right wing cons in Canada love that a cop is excited about meeting PP & posting it attached to his policing title. It tells them that the cops are on their side. It emboldens them. while I can’t speak to Phil as a human, it is troubling that he posted this publicly.
Halifax police man posted this. Aren’t police supposed to be publicly neutral? Kick rocks, Phil
@PinosPress @Libuse_Carodej But don't we have the right to open our doors without fear of men? I'm sick of practicing all kinds of safekeeping behaviors. Why is that on us instead of addressing the public health issue of male aggression? Imagine all we could do with our energy if we didn't have clueless men
So this just happened: My doorbell rang. I opened the door to find one of the men (half my age) who delivered my furniture last week standing there saying, "I stopped to say hello & tell you how beautiful you are." Next time I buy furniture I'm requesting it be delivered by bears
It makes me feel deeply insane to have lived through a pandemic only to have this many people still acting like “illness” and “significant” are mutually exclusive categories.
No Auston Matthews tonight for the Maple Leafs. Team is saying illness, feels like something more significant to keep a star player out of a potential elimination game.

Everyone congratulating this woman for stealing from the race and bragging about it, I assume you would be ok with her stealing from you and bragging about it as well?
@Alexa_Curtis Being fearless is not stealing. Being fearless is not taking away the thunder from others. Shame on you.
@Alexa_Curtis This woman stole from a non-profit and thinks it means she's fearless. She could have registered and paid and done it honorably and then told us the exact same story and we would be applauding her. Her excuse is she made a bad deal with a client so she lost $17k. No.

TFW no one is wearing a mask at an accessibility symposium during an ongoing pandemic that disproportionately impacts disabled people.
The tech was kind, considerate, and their registration lady was also kind and accommodating. One manager felt like flexing their personal beliefs about mitigation during an active pandemic, and the other was a true professional.
“Sure, that’s no problem at all my dear” was the kind reply I got without one bit of hesitation. So I drove the two hours out there, instead of 2 minutes, and walked into my appointment where the tech threw on a mask with no issues and did my X-ray.
@jwalker4 To be clear, these are all pre-made ingredients 😅 pre-baked bacon warmed in the microwave, hard-boiled eggs warmed in a glass of hot water, and an eggo waffle. It's delightfully easy on my end hahaha
My sis has bacon, hardboiled eggs, and a waffle for breakfast every single day. I am making industrial-size quantities tonight - 14 eggs, an entire pack of bacon over two baking pans - and it will only see her through Tuesday
