Remember last year some parents complained that the school lunch program didn't have 'normal kids foods like chicken nuggets'?
We got chicken nuggets this year... and my kid is not impressed. Says they were tiny and had burn marks and were mostly bread.

Do not operate drones in a wildfire area. It is illegal. It can interfere with our firefighting efforts. The fine is $25,000 under the Forests Act, there could be fines under federal legislation as well.

I’m not thrilled about increasing tuition, but kudos to Ontario for acknowledging that there’s a crisis in universities caused by under-resourcing and recognizing that “Postsecondary education is one of Ontario’s most important long-term investments.” #cdnpse

Speaking of Public Safety, Premier/Mayor #TimHouston, 1 million Nova Scotians had their privacy breached by NSGov, and into your second term, you still have not given your #Privacy Commissioner the power to do her job?

We need CCPA and their analysis. Not cool #nsgov
Is the #NovaScotia government really not going to invite @ccpanovascotia.bsky.social to the stakeholder lock-up? Is our analysis really that threatening?
Budget is tabled at 1pm Feb 18. I will be down at the NS Leg to respond regardless; we do appreciate the 40 mins extra to read & ask questions.

NSGov is cutting teaching positions, and trotting out the rationale that “spending has increased but student outcomes have not”
Conservatives love this talking point, and they especially live to use it while going into negotiations (NSTU contract is up soon)

Halifax has seven universities and the two largest announced the sudden end to their provosts' terms *this week*. Quite apart from the relative merits of those decisions, it speaks to the chaos in #nspse under the current #nsgov.
Community Chaos

Anyone who volunteers for any NSgov program should stop immediately.
Volunteering is an exchange , giving back to a system that does great things.
The system is about to so not great things. So the Cons do not deserve its volunteers at this time.

Instead, NSgov is requiring Dal to spend 💰💰 to assess all of its programs all at once (usually done in rotation & grouped by unit, so all of a dept’s programs are assessed every 7 years, incl external review, as is standard in #cdnpse), and create a master’s in real estate.
