We had so much fun with the 2 Aussies during hour number 2. Mark and Penny were so nice and hilarious, and they really appreciated your calls, suggestions and welcomes. If you missed it, his article was in the Halifax magazine in Sunday's Chronicle-Herald. Check out the magazine, it's really cool with some very interesting articles.
So....breaking news! The National Council of the Conservative Party of Canada has declared the nomination in Cumberland-Colchester-Musquodoboit Valley to be - wait for it - VACANT. So, Bill is out. I'm sure he'll still run as an independent, but can you believe this? I can't believe Harper would want to really lash out like this when he's starting an election in the face. He is so petty, it shocks me. It goes to show he doesn't give a crap about Atlantic Canada. I can't wait to hear your opinions on this tomorrow, should be a busy day!
This animal control by-law going before city council is the worst! We want to build a shelter to put the cats and there's no mention of a spay and neuter program or even how much the entire program is going to cost. City staffers are completely out of control. Dawn Sloane has promised to stand up to them tonight, let's see if she does! It's on Eastlink channel 10, for those interested.
Three cheers for Peggy Aikenhead. She's the Fall River mom who has taken a stand against the school that is charging her 200 dollars per child to watch them during the lunch hour. I think it's ridiculous!! When I was in school, like Rick, teachers supervised the cafeteria and the playground during recesses and lunch hours. As a teacher, I would want to do that. It's a way to socialize more with the students informally, to observe what's going on in the schoolyard and to be a part of the community that is the school. It's shocking to me that these duties were removed back in 1970!
Anyway, enough blathering from me for today. The Mayor is in during hour number 1 so get your questions ready!
Cheers!
