Press Release from Solar NS: solarns.ca/statement-2022-01…
I hope this press conference will include fair treatment for for profit operators who currently represent greater than 50% of the market. Little information, no specifics, tough deadlines and likely the loss of daycare spaces in the short term. @halifaxchamber
Premier Tim Houston and Prime Minister Justin Trudeau will announce, by video conference, an update to commitments under the Canada-Nova Scotia Canada-wide Early Learning and Child Care Agreement today, January 14, at 10:15 a.m.

Hey #SMBs, @TELUS is putting forward $1M in their #StandWithOwners campaign. Let's get your stories up there #Halifax #NovaScotia, you could get an infusion of $10k from that pot and more! cc: @DowntownHalifax @halifaxchamber telus.com/en/business/v2/sma…
Less than 24 hours before opening to New Brunswick, we may in fact not open fully. Bad news for hotels with reservations, people who planned to see family and retail in Nova Scotia. Seems like pretty important news. Let’s wait till 3pm to deliver it……

Thanks @CanadianPM for joining us at today's #FasterTogether task group meeting. This is an important initiative and it's good to have the Government of Canada supporting. The faster we all get vaccinated, the faster we can get back to normal. #cdnpoli fastertogether.ca/

All of our governments should have clear guidelines for how reopening will take place. Far from distracting people from dealing with the current wave, it will give Canadians hope and purpose at a time when those commodities are in short supply.
It is really helpful to see what the #COVID19 "off ramp" looks like. Saskatchewan's reopening plans are very clear, outlining estimated timelines, setting achievable & meaningful vaccine targets, with clear guidance. Source: bit.ly/3enb1sQ

Our hearts are absolutely filled with the most painful sadness you can imagine 😓. Our beloved Andrew was taken in the line of duty this morning. 💔 Please reach out to your family & tell them how much you love them. We are so proud of Sgt. Harnett, he was one of kind.
