Passing the time while waiting for my kid at school

Grocers stocking up on Canadian, international suppliers as shoppers avoid American #BuyCanadian #BuyLocal #Canada #cdnpoli /1 www.ctvnews.ca/business/art...

Canada, take action: Keep buying Canadian! As consumers, we have power. Don't get tired. Don't lose momentum. Buy Canadian as much as possible, and for the rest, anything but US. Keep talking about it to cheer on others also.

Half moon morning

Managed to get through most of the winter without getting sick, husband brought a miserable cold home from work and shared with us all. Blech.

Last year, Nova Scotia Power reported 4,700+ service failures and there was only a single day with no blackouts in the province. Over the last five years, the utility has raised rates four times, ostensibly to fund service improvements.

Canada is ready. We will fight. I thank the Prime Minister for his powerful statement in response to the thuggish attacks by Trump. We are unified as a nation. Our American cousins are divided. We will kick at the darkness until it bleeds daylight. www.thestar.com/politics/fed...

Song of the day: Bud the Spud- Stompin' Tom Say aye for PEI. Just say no to Idaho. My fellow Canucks are checking in with tales of defending our nation by purchases at the grocery store. No USA products. The resistance is here: True. North. Strong. Free #strongasfuck www.youtube.com/watch?v=HtyS...

Trump is a lying gangster. His claim that Canada's border is a threat is just one of a millions lies. Check out the green graph line at the bottom. He's too gutless to take on Putin so he thinks we will be an easy mark. Donald has poked the polar bear. #strongasfuck infogram.com/1p1xq9rjw1dr...

Feeling festive

It's craft fair day! Don't let the weather keep you away, it's warm and dry inside! Both gyms will be full of vendors, all excited to share their wares with you! See you at Woodlawn High, 10-2!

The Guardian's new series, called #ThisIsClimateBreakdown, starts with a story from #NovaScotia & it's heartbreaking. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Crafty kind of day

Woodlawn High School is having a craft fair on Saturday, November 23rd from 10-2. Admission is $2 per person or a donation to the Panther Pantry which provides food for students and their families. I'm an organizer and a vendor, would love to see you come out to the event!

I feel like every party is just throwing things at a wall to see what sticks. Can we address some real issues, please? I don't need HST off my cell bill or free bridge trips. It would be nice if my kids' school wasn't falling apart, was accessible, had enough staff that were fairly compensated.

Sad mad today. Unbelievably believable. I wish people were better.

Yup, that's enough Twitter for me.
