Why is it whenever there’s construction anywhere in the north end — which is ALL THE TIME — my water turns brown? I drink tap water all day, and lazy/incompetent construction workers are fucking up my hydration schedule on a weekly basis. Time to take that backhoe training again!

  2. i couldn’t agree more, i moved to halifax from a small town in northern nova scotia last fall. the town i used to live in had boil orders all the time because the construction crews were always working on pointless projects (patching recently paved and pristine roads) this lead to shitty water, i expected more from halifax.
