Students of HRM! Education Minister Brendan Maguire is trying to justify cutting the free student bus pass program by downplaying how many people use it. Do you use your bus pass at least once a week? Do you think the Minister of Education needs to hear from the people who use it? Let him know! Send an email to your MLA and to educmin@novascotia.ca. Your voice matters! @novascotiandp @hfxnoise

Today is the 108th anniversary of the Halifax Explosion. This remains a dark day in our city’s history, marking a catastrophic loss of life and unimaginable destruction. In the face of this tragedy, Haligonians showed incredible resilience, unity and bravery jumping in to action to offer aid, shelter, and support to their neighbours in need. This spirit of mutual support still defines us to this day.

✨️🎆 Diwali 🎆✨️ A huge thank you to @ifcns and @novascotia_tamilargal_society for the kind invitation to their Diwali celebrations. It was an honor to be able to participate in such meaningful parts of the occasion. Diwali or "Festival of Lights," is a major celebration symbolizing the spiritual victory of light over darkness, good over evil, and knowledge over ignorance. The name literally means "a row of lights," referring to the diyas (oil lamps) lit by celebrants to illuminate homes and temples.
