    I drove back from Moncton on Monday, because I didn't want to chance the Cobequid Pass on Sunday. I believe Sam needed an alignment because of the bumpiness caused by the ice. I, too, realize that Nova Scotia gets 'unique' winter weather. This is nothing new. Figure out a way to clear the shit off the highways! Two days after the storm and the highway from Truro to Elmsdale was atrocious. I was going anywhere from 40-70 km/hr the whole time.
    According to the provincial gov't's website, the 100-series highways are a priority and are to be BARE eight hours after the storm ends.

    My understanding is that the price is for a photo. Has this changed? Regardless, a non-profit child care centre typically has under-privileged kids, so it's pretty ironic that they were raising money FOR under-privileged kids. I truly hope those toddlers get their time with Santa.

    You shouldn't judge before asking people, as ik has stated. For the past couple of years, hubs and I have told family to donate to the food banks instead of getting us gifts. They've gotten us something but have also bought food to bring to their local food banks.
    We've donated throughout the year and also donate extra at Christmas. And I encourage my loved ones to do the same.
    I appreciate your sentiment (it's their somewhere) and your compassion for the less fortunate (wish more people cared!) but don't paint everyone in the country with the same brush.

    It's not just about having snow/winter tires, OP. Put a tit behind the wheel and they're still a tit. 'tis the unfortunate truth.

    'Nail Salons' are not typically licensed with the Nova Scotia Cosmetology Association. Any legitimate salon in Nova Scotia has to renew their license with the Association annually. And, as a customer, it's your right to ask to see their up-to-date valid license. The Association ensures a certain level of cleanliness and safety that a lot of these nail salons do not follow. My advice (as I work in the industry)? Stick with credited and licensed salons/spas.

    More; a goldendoodle is a mix of a golden retriever and a poodle. A Labradoodle is a mix of a Labrador retriever and a poodle. They are hypoallergenic.
