@smbmsar Someday this arsehole may need help himself out there, and have time to think "I wish there was a boat right now to save my life" KARMA 🖕

The rescue boat at Shining Waters has been badly damaged by vandalism last night. It will not be available SAR response for at least three weeks.

@JoyLing6 @CBCNS She was also in the news a few years back, caused a s-storm with some locals down there again. In Hackett’s Cove, she bought property. Theres a beach that borders it or at the end of it, this was a well known beach in the area, she blocked access to it. Surveillance. Security.

@CBCNS Has everyone forgotten, that Peggy’s Cove is STILL THE MEMORIAL PLACE WHERE SWISS AIR WENT DOWN??🤦🏻‍♀️😞 I still remember hearing a jet flying over my place that very night!!N praying for those people on that plane…😰😓 HOW DARE MS MCCAIN TRY TO REZONE THIS INTO A HIGHER COMMERCE

Eleanor McCain, a musician and daughter of one of the founders of the McCain Foods empire, says she's run into roadblocks trying to open businesses in Peggys Cove. She wants the province to step in before the iconic seaside village enters tourist season. cbc.ca/news/canada/no…

Burning is still not allowed from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m., but may be allowed after 2 p.m., depending on local conditions. People can check the burn safe website after 2 p.m. at novascotia.ca/burnsafe/ to see if burning is permitted. Everyone should also be aware of municipal bylaws.

@HRMFireNews You DEFINITELY deserve it! TURN IT OFF!!!

It’s been quite stretch lately. I’m going to take a day or two fully off Twitter this week, not sure which days yet. I’ll let you all know beforehand, just giving a heads up in advance. Thanks

Awesome Via NS Government Some of the first responders from all agencies signed a flag left in the lobby on the St Margaret’s Bay centre.

@saltwaterdarsie This is amazing!!!!!

@99emerald @HRMFireNews I think you should sign up to be a volunteer firefighter, then maybe you’ll know the answer. Maybe you’d get it done faster there superman 🙄

@HRMFireNews Like, seriously, how can a fire still be burning after all this rain. Come on.. something is not right?

The charts are high resolution I believe so that may be an issue with your device or connection

@WildOscah @rich_sherri @TimHoustonNS I need a shirt or mug ASAP

Thanks to the weather, we’re able to lift the woods travel and activity ban, effective 12:01am on Monday. The province-wide fire ban will remain in effect, as will the $25,000 fines for those who ignore the ban. If you use the woods: be safe, be smart, and don't flick a dart.
