To the 4 young “men” who walked by me and my sister Monday Night outside the Italian Market on Doyle Street. We kindly asked for your assistance to push our car, which was stuck on a patch of ice. Instead of helping, we were rebuked with cries of “No way – we’re late for the Ozzie concert!!!” Karma is a bitch and here’s hoping you were so high at the concert that you were gagged and senselessly mugged on your way out of the Metro Centre . Your parents should be embarrassed to have little brats like you as sons , particularly since you’re likely going to be living in their basement until the age of 45. A shout out to the guys who eventually did help us, who were also late for the Ozzy concert. I hope those 25 seconds it took to get us out didn’t ruin the show for you.

Jerks. I don’t know how many times I have pushed cars out of ice and snowbanks in this city. It’s a fact of Halifax life. We are all in it together. Gotta help when you can.
Those streets running between Barrington & Queen are the worst. Me and the lads have had to dig out more than one in the past.
my boyfriend went to the concert with three other guys..i am really hoping he wasnt the one who wouldnt push your car, as i know he was a few mins late for the concert.
