@TimHoustonNS Please consider increasing the CCTH budget to reflect the vital role that museums play in tourism! We do not make living wages & our seasonal staff do not have income year round due to this and EI benefits for this type of work.1 increase since 08 @NolanYoungMLA @ColtonLeBlancNS

Nova Scotia is a prime destination for making year-round memories, thanks to our exceptional tourism and hospitality sector. It's no surprise that people from all over the world are drawn to our beautiful province. Cheers to another strong tourism season!

Deconsecrated churches becoming housing units are excellent examples of adaptive reuse of heritage buildings!!

@TimHoustonNS I applaud this but it really should not be the government’s financial responsibility to improve cellular service infrastructure. The consumers pay for this service and it hasn’t been delivered. We should have been louder I suppose. But thank you for addressing it.

Our government is investing in improving cellphone coverage across the province. We need better coverage, and our government is moving to ensure Nova Scotians get the coverage they expect. Learn more about our plan here: novascotia.ca/news/release/?…

Shelburne County axe throwers Suzy Atwood, John Buchanan and Felicia Townsend travelled to Germany to compete and came out on top.

@Square is your debit system down with square for retail?

Another #novascotia crisis situation that required/s cellular service and we still cannot hold a call in our main service area- Barrington Pass or access internet /calls elsewhere @Bell @TELUS @NolanYoungMLA

@NewellMartell NS fishers have been seeing this throughout the summer :)

@CBCNS And yet I manage two provincial properties that have only received a 10% increase in operational funding since 2008 and employ 7 people for less than a living wage🤔

The Nova Scotia government is ending the 2022-23 fiscal year with a $116M surplus rather than the half billion dollar deficit projected in the budget tabled March 29, 2022.  ift.tt/RHtuDjo

During the forest fires emergency crews and evacuees could not reliably communicate with each other. News crews could not conduct interviews. This was inherently dangerous. @bell @TELUS It’s getting worse! Please act!

@Bell cell service in the province of #NovaScotia is abysmal. I cannot keep a connected call from Barrington to Shelburne or even to Liverpool. We are forced to shift to online without the infrastructure to support it @TimHoustonNS @NolanYoungMLA @ColtonLeBlancNS 1/2

@telus ⁦@BellAliant⁩ couldn’t receive emergency text because of spotty “cell service” ? This is the second provincial emergency that has been extremely challenged due to terrible cellular service! m.facebook.com/story.php?stor…

@telus having a great time trying to navigate emergency road closures to get home with virtually no cell service in most of non urban #novascotia. I recall finding a challenge doing this with the wildfires too. Fix this! My God!

@RCMPNS @511ns hasn’t updated this so wondering if it’s open now?

@emcmack This was both the funniest and saddest things I’ve seen today.

How can anybody living in NS this summer not believe in climate change?

@bellaliant did you know that in most of the Municipality of Barrington, I don’t have enough cellular service to send this tweet? The largest wildfire in NS history and emergency responders couldn’t even communicate as a result of poor or non-existent service.

@nsgov your Nova Scotia.ca/alert site includes almost no Mun of Barrington information, please update!

@NS_DNRR And only because I happen to rejoin Twitter. Unacceptable

@NS_DNRR Good to know this 1/2 hr before we had to evacuate

(1/2) Barrington Lake, Shelburne Co update: Wildfire estimated at 775 hectares, has reached Lyles Bay. Hot, dry, windy conditions are challenging. 31 DNRR firefighters, 2 helicopters onsite, plus 6 NB air tankers. Hwy 103 generally closed from exit 28 to 29, likely for 24 hrs.

@NS_DNRR How did southwest NS go from red to green in a day with no rain??

May 21: Burning permitted after 2 p.m. in counties marked green. Burning restricted until after 7 p.m. in counties marked yellow. Check before you burn and know your municipal bylaws!

@NS_DNRR One helicopter? We saw this fire coming for hours before dark and stand to lose our home.

(1/2) Barrington Lake, Shelburne Co.: Wildfire out of control & about 100 hectares. Hot, dry and windy conditions today challenged firefighting efforts. 1 helicopter & 15 DNRR staff onsite.
