I do not understand why The Coast has to provide a voice to people who are so mad at the world. You make it sound like Brexit means that Canada should separate next (not Quebec, but places that probably have not even thought of separating!), or that this will turn in to World War III, that we need for some reason. I find The Coast digs for negativity and reinforces the idea that the fringes of society have to be so cynical about everything. Halifax is left without a reputable newspaper and it does not help if we seem to think that “independent” and “mad at the world” have to be in the same sentence. It makes us all look bad and we can do better than that. —Wanting Good News for A Change

There has to be some cynicism, preferably from the fringe.
Why do you have an unrealistic expectation of this paper? Under the guise of being indy and left-winged, it promotes and perpetuates unrealistic social constructs. Worse, correcting them results in bring silenced rather than them accepting that there is a reality they ignore.
You do have to give credit, at least they have a comment section unlike certain other media outlets in this area.
Next issue cover: Citadel circling city councillors on prancing unicorns with rainbow manes & Argyle sock tails would be a boffo idea!
You’re right Bro Tim! I credit them that!
isn’t it ironic that you are bitching about having a bitch section by bitching about it in the bitch section?
