Sad

It's just so frustrating and sad the way seniors are treated in this province. Agree with it or not, we had Evelyn Oakley on the show today and it was heartbreaking. She lost her husband on Monday, is having heart surgery this afternoon and because she's ailing, faces losing her bed at Northwood. Her attitude is awesome though, she says she's a "feisty, Irish lady" who's not going out without a fight.

Then after hearing about these ingrate prisoners complain about conditions it dawned on me:

PRISONERS ARE TREATED BETTER THAN SENIORS!

Unreal! This province (but admittedly it's not just N.S.) drives me nuts!

What is going on at the Burnside jail?? Seriously - everyone gets take-out? Prisoners are being transferred in taxis? I'm with Bill Estabrooks on this one - there are some serious issues relating to the leadership down there. Plus, where is Jermaine Carvery?? He's still missing and it's just a matter of time before he turns up again. There's going to be another heist where people's lives are ruined because I'm sure he needs money. Just wait - it's coming.

Another maddening day on the Hotline - give us a call tomorrow! Let it out, it feels good!

Take care,
