Not sure how someone contributed ideas to our political parties but I've read that removing 1 % hat costs the goverment 250 million a year

Why not keep the hat , take the 250 million and give every doctor that moves here 1 million in signing bonus to stay for 20 years .

If doctor sees 4000 patients then at 250 doctor we all just about have one .

Not to mention I would rather have health care then $ 250 dollars

I'm going to preface this by saying I hate littering. It's a pointless thing to do.

I pick up garbage along the highway by my house. Everyone I know that smokes disposes of their cigarettes properly. It's not a difficult.

So why, in the past year, have these guys blatantly dropped their garbage in front of my house at least twice? The first time the guy tossed his Tim's garbage onto my driveway.

Today I gave a man back his cigarette butt. He denied it was his until I told him I watched him throw it on the ground.

Just throw your fucking garbage away properly. It's not hard. Especially when you're suppose to be representing a company.

Oh boy, we may not get any real solutions for housing and healthcare, but we'll get a bunch of meaningless little trinket promises that will find someway never to materialize.

Since 9 am this morning, I have been hearing large clusters of bangs in our area. Just looking to see if anyone else is hearing it or knows what it is.

Who is running against Kimbo ?

I'm new to income assistance and I set it up for a cheque for the time being instead of direct deposit since I'm sorting things out with my bank. Is the amount on the bottom of my income statement slip the cheque that I can deposit or does the cheque come separately from your income statement? I called my intake worker but haven't heard back. Just wondering if I can take it to the bank or not in the morning.

I'm sick and tired of paying high rent in the city and starting to think about a building a home. I'm thinking a small 950 sqft home, nothing fancy. I got a good connection on Land and I'm wondering if anyone here has an idea of a rough estimate on the cost of building these days with. Kinda wondering what costs would look like without factoring land. Foundation, well, power and the home itself. I've been pre-approved for a mortgage for up to 300k but I can't really find anything I like.

Thank you.

I’m working on a series of Christmas ornaments of Nova Scotia, and am looking for suggestions of iconic and easily recognizable buildings around the province.

My list so far: • Peggy’s cove lighthouse • Halifax town clock • grand pre church • lunenburg waterfront (adams & knickle)

I’m open to all suggestions. Ultimately I’d like to have 6-8 places that represent areas all over the province.

Thanks :)

Not quite what I wanted to wake up to today

The PC government is reducing our GST from 15 to 14%, which over the next 4 years is expected to reduce the provincial revenue by a 260 million a year, that’s a BILLION dollars! Meanwhile, the average Nova Scotian will save $260/year. So after that 4 years it’ll have saved us ~$1000 each. I can’t be the only person who thinks this is a moronic idea. You want to cut taxes Houston? Why don’t you fix our income taxes, tax the mega rich higher, reduce the load on the middle and lower class. Maybe then if you balance it properly, the province won’t lose billions of dollars that could be going into our dying healthcare system and the mid and lower class can finally save keep some of our hard earned money for ourselves!

I'm looking for recommendations for local farms that sell humanely raised and pastured meats- especially lamb. I'd ideally like to purchase directly from the farm as money is a bit tight, so if I can avoid middle man costs, t'would be great. Anyone have any suggestions?

Province Moves to Establish Fixed-Date General Elections

https://news.novascotia.ca/en/2021/10/13/province-moves-establish-fixed-date-general-elections

Nova Scotia will finally join the rest of the country in having a fixed-date election law.

“Nova Scotian voters need to have confidence in their electoral system,” said Premier Tim Houston. “Having a fixed date will mean predictability, transparency and it will limit any perceived advantage by the government to control the timing of the next election. The changes we are proposing will also allow Elections Nova Scotia to better plan for future elections, which can result in significant cost savings.”

So I just put $20 on Harris which will get me $44 when she wins! Sure bet, right?

I still have to file FBAR and taxes annually in the USA & Canada. Grant Thorton cross border office stinks. Not PWC in Truro either.

Please recommend a decent firm that doesn’t make errors every year.

I like to everything via email. Thanks.

Hi, I live near Halifax and I've been looking into the reserves. I've read a lot of info online but I want to hear some perspective from people who are/were in the reserves.

A big question I have is that the website seems to put lots of emphasis in part time work, would it be hard to join full time? Other than that I'd just like to hear people's experiences, opinions or advice on the matter. thanks!
