Our outgoing PM thought this subject important enough for a YouTube video in his last days & I think it bears serious consideration. Fellow 🇨🇦 IMO we need to keep asking #PoiLIEvre WHY is he refusing to get a security clearance? His 'reasons' seem flimsy to me. #CanadaSky🇨🇦

I’ve realized that this kind of self care - short trips to the beach, into the woods, taking moments to breathe and take in the beauty around us - is more important than ever. The world is a mess. But it’s still beautiful.

Honouring Indigenous teachings, like the Seven Generations principle, encourages us to make decisions with future generations in mind. We must choose a path of stewardship and protect Nova Scotia for those who will come after us. Tim Houston, do better. It's time to listen, not destroy.

In Denmark the law encourages owners of agricultural land to plant 5% flowers for bees via subsidies from the European Union to develop flower fallows and promote #biodiversity

Why other countries don't do the them?

Anyone who thinks Canada is broken and is not the best country in the world should never lead it.

Our universal healthcare saved my life. More than once. We do not want to be American!

Canadians need to wake up, see conservatives for what they are, what they're all about.

I find joy in memories of Red River in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, surrounded by wildflowers like black knapweed, Queen Anne's lace, and clover swaying in the ocean breeze. #wildflowerwednesday

Nice to see iNaturalist here. Give them a follow to see interesting observations posted each day. I love #WildflowerWednesday too!
Our #WildflowerWednesday Observation of the Day is this Western Tall Woodland Sugarbush plant (Protea madiensis occidentalis), seen in Nigeria by bethelclement!

Nova Scotia’s super conservative majority under Tim Houston just proved you can indeed turn back the hands of time, right back to the dark ages. Did Nova Scotia already join Trumpland as a 51st state and no one told us? Frickin’ Fracking hell.

Trying desperately to progress as an artist is endless frustration when your #chronicillness keeps knocking you down. But I keep getting up again because art gives me purpose and joy.

We've been ordering online from the Wolfville Farmer’s Market for about a year and a half, and I would definitely recommend it! Such an outstanding service that directly supports Nova Scotia Farmers. We pick up our order at Birdies Bread in Woodside every Wednesday. Can’t say enough good things!!

Did you know that the mainland #moose in #NovaScotia is an endangered species? Disease, illegal hunting, and habitat destruction are all contributing factors.
The moose found on Cape Breton Island is a separate sub-species that was brought from Alberta in the late 1940s.

Nature Nova Scotia’s response to Premier Houston on his intention to reopen long-banned natural resource exploitation. Houston claimed opposition to these activities as coming solely from “special interest” groups. Just another reason to #nevervoteconservative

This is just how it feels sometimes!
Not only can literally everything cause a crash with #mecfs - it also feels like being poisoned.

Often the dose makes the poison, at least with mild and moderate ME. For severe ME patients the cabinet keeps mainly closed.
