@TimHoustonNS Independant....LOL! Yeah right.

Today, we learned that the independent Nova Scotia Energy Board – effectively the judge and jury on power rates – agreed with Nova Scotia Power and approved what they asked for. While I respect the independence of the board, I strongly disagree with this decision. It is out of touch in every way. I expected more from the board, particularly after such an extensive hearing where expert after expert presented clear evidence on why the board should exercise its authority and reject Nova Scotia Power’s request. At a minimum, they could have deferred the decision and required Nova Scotia Power to return with a more reasonable and fair proposal that reflects the reality Nova Scotians are living every day. They didn’t even do that. Nova Scotians have every right to feel angry and let down by a board that had a clear opportunity to protect ratepayers. At a time when people are already dealing with the fallout of a cyber breach that put their personal information at risk, billing systems producing estimates they don’t trust, and real anxiety about what their next power bill will look like, now is not the time for a rate hike. Even if Nova Scotia Power failed to recognize this, the board had the evidence it needed to do so. Instead, it rewarded bad behaviour. So where do we go from here? Nova Scotians deserve reliability, transparency, fairness and choice. This decision only reinforces that the best path forward is more choice, more competition and less reliance on Nova Scotia Power. That’s the direction we are working toward. It’s why we are advancing onshore natural gas development so Nova Scotians can ultimately have the option to choose gas. It’s also why we are pursuing the Renewall Energy Inc. Mersey River Wind Project, which represents meaningful progress toward breaking the Nova Scotia Power monopoly. This project in Queens County will provide Nova Scotians with a real alternative to Nova Scotia Power. While that power is about a year away, it is coming – and it’s real. This project means that 50,000 to 60,000 homes will have a choice of which company they buy their energy from. This is a real start along the way to breaking the monopoly.

@TimHoustonNS 60 Million for 140 housing units!!! What the hell! Are these mansions or what? That's over 2 million a unit.

When Prime Minister Mark Carney announced his commitment to increase investment in Canada’s defence sector, I let him know: Nova Scotia is ready to lead. Nova Scotians have always answered the call. At sea, on land and in the air. I’m sure, in part, that’s why the Prime Minister chose Nova Scotia to make this significant investment in defence. We are Canada’s capital of defence, and that didn’t happen by accident. It happened because of who and where we are. I’m thrilled that, today, Prime Minister Carney is recognizing what Nova Scotia has to offer to successfully implement Canada’s Defence Industrial Strategy. The announcement includes about $2 billion for major, targeted investments that will modernize critical infrastructure, build new facilities, and support the next generation of naval and air fleets. Thank you for recognizing Nova Scotia as the most logical place to invest billions of dollars in defence. Growing up in a military family, I know first-hand what this investment will mean for our military personnel. As Canada continues to implement its new defence strategy, and future investments are identified, Nova Scotia will be ready to contribute as Canada’s capital of defence. Nova Scotia is trusted with projects that will support the future of Canada and our allies’ security. NATO selected Halifax as the home for its North American headquarters for the Defence Innovation Accelerator for the North Atlantic. Canada selected Dartmouth for the first Maritime Defence Innovation Secure Hub and announced an investment in a dedicated space launch pad near Canso – a $200 million deal. We’re also building Canada’s River-class destroyers, and the next generation of ice breakers for the northern patrol. Six of Canada’s top 10 defence companies operate in Nova Scotia, and we stand ready to sustain Canada’s next fleet of submarines and the growing air force assets in Greenwood. Our well-established and growing financial tech sector is supporting Canada’s bid to be the host of the Defence, Security and Resilience Bank (DSRB). Nova Scotia’s established military presence, integrated supply chain, renowned universities and research capabilities, and highly skilled workforce are all critical ingredients to our success in defence. As world events continue to demonstrate why these investments are necessary, Nova Scotia is ready to protect and serve a free and strong Canada. As our country stands in the face of uncertainty, and looks toward the future, the heart of Canada’s defence beats right here, in Nova Scotia. Where we’re proud to be Canada’s capital of defence.

@TimHoustonNS Interstingly enough,this energy project is a Liberal owned company,and look who shows up! How about starting projects like paving the treacherous roads. A province that a has one of the highest income tax rates and recently upped again,it is infuriating the condition of the roads

Great to meet with Prime Minister Mark Carney to sign an agreement to speed up approvals for major projects in Nova Scotia. Our one project, one review model will cut duplication, shorten timelines, and give more certainty to builders and investors. This will help get Nova Scotia's Wind West project moving, faster. With some of the strongest and most consistent offshore winds in the world, Wind West has the potential to power about a quarter of Canada's electricity needs. All this means we can move faster on key infrastructure and energy projects, grow our economy, and position Nova Scotia as an energy leader. Learn more: news.novascotia.ca/en/2026/03/27/…

Bingo!

👇 shocker!!

👍👍

1000%👍

I concur. 100%. Corrupt to the core! Thanks to the elbows up crew,no change insight!

@MichelleLA1981 100% agree.

This should never be allowed to happen. You are going directly against your constituents. Canadian politics is a complete clown show!

If you aren’t angered by this then you must be an ardent Liberal !!!

To whoever is singing the Canadian national anthem tomorrow.. Here are the CORRECT lyrics for you! Thanks!

Americans and everyone else: You may have heard about some Ostrich farm in Canada that's about to have their birds killed. The issue ISN'T about Ostriches - it's about a government that's WAY out of control. PLEASE pass these stories on to help us embarrass the shit out of them.

Digital ID's WON'T BE mandatory in Canada. If you refuse to adopt them, you'll just be fired from your job... Lose access to restaurants, gyms, bars, theaters, train and plane travel and may even have your bank accounts frozen. But it won't be mandatory! Sound familiar?

@RosieRocks29 Yeah...100%. The elbows up people are clapping their hands like seals,all proud like too.🤬🤬🤬

At this point, Canadians might as well accept the fact that they're fucked six ways from Sunday.

@femalebodybuil6 Lost MATLOCK Alf Macgyver

I am totally drawing a blank. 🤔

@yegwave I’m all for not generalizing against members of a particular group….but this is TOO MUCH! SEND THEM ALL BACK!

@CanadaBarry68 @yegwave Not at all.

@yegwave Is anyone really surprised at both? Who did it and being released already!

The Edmonton Police Service has charged an Uber driver with sexual assault. Around 1:56 a.m. on June 30, 2024, a female passenger was picked up in a dark grey 2023 Nissan Rogue near 109 Street and 101 Avenue and was reportedly sexually assaulted during the trip. On Aug. 30, 2025, 32-year-old Gurvinder Pannu was arrested and charged. He has been released under conditions barring him from employment with ride-sharing or taxi services, any contact with the complainant, and possession of weapons, including knives and firearms.

@DeMureDeb @yegwave 100% agree.

@yegwave If he is not a Canadian citizen he should be deported. Canadians do not want to import criminals.
