Why would anyone want to live in this city? There are no jobs unless you want to work on a casual basis with no benefits and be tortured by permanent staff because they know they have you over a barrel because they know there is no decent work out there. Workplace harassment, no lunch breaks […]

Gaggle of people on the bus
Was I slightly disappointed I didn’t make my connection? Not after the most smiles I have ever seen on Halifax Transit. Yes, I am speaking of Syrian refugees. Strollers, hats, mitts, whatever…Smiles! Made me feel more proud to be a Canadian. —nice bus ride
Da Meanie
Gramma you have destroyed your family. You would rather pay that lawyer to drag it on, money that should have gone to your grandkids. The hate that seethes from your pores after a night of rum dumb. Stay off the tele the neighbours hear you and you are their nightly entertainment. I feel sorry for […]
Let’s make a plaque
For all of the MLAs who voted in favor of the recent legislation to force a contract on teachers, and undermine their constitutional rights, lets make a commemorative plaque which will bear their names and leave a historical record of their actions. This could be a good fundraiser for the labour movement with moneys raised […]
Keep it up—now on to Stage II
Government should do its best to live within its means. Hopefully now those in a position of authority will also make a determined effort to reform MLA pensions. Since the chief criteria is affordability, and since the MLA pension plan would be considered by most Nova Scotianers to be unaffordable, it is time to revisit […]
Who raised you?
I work at a great local restaurant in the city. We have a diverse menu, take lots of care to make it special and unique. Yet every week, at least one table has to come in and shit on it. “I don’t understand this.” ”None of this appeals to me.” “Who eats this food? Yuck.” […]
Thanks for being you
To the young guy working the cash at the VV in Bayers Lake last Friday: Not only are you tall, dark and handsome but more importantly, you seem kind and your smile and friendly service made my day. The staff at this store are upbeat and friendly and make it a welcoming place to be, […]
Share the road DCK!
To the Friday morning mini-van driver with the license plate starting with DCK: I did everything a road bike commuter must do—I checked behind me, and then gave the turn signal that I was turning my bike out of the Bell St bike lane into the left turning lane at Sackville. I could hear you […]
SWITCH IT UP!
For the love of everything, please use some of those profits to hire new entertainment! You run the most expensive restaurant in the city, yet we sit in our downtown flat and listen to the same guy playing the same set in the exact same order on his stupid saxophone three times every. single. week. […]
So no, you may not work there.
Well…you may but I will continue to take your picture and film you. You see the problem is that you like my lovely, dark yard. You leave your condoms and condom wrappers lying around. You go as far as smoking crack back there too. Unacceptable. May I suggest that you find somewhere else? —CamGuy
Fuck these hicks
So I moved to a rural town, proclaimed online as “a retirement village,” hoping to find some peace and quiet among the retired folks. I’m only 32, but still… Instead I ended up in a village full of crack-smoking, junkie ass, degenerate, cousin-fucking inbreds, who think they are a gang. Running “the hood,” as they […]
