“ 2月3日星期日,亚历克斯(Alex)被安葬在温尼伯(Winnipeg)的夏莉·泽德克(Shaarey Zedek)公墓旁边。”- 揭幕大学,亚历克斯·里奇曼·哈利法克斯(Alex Richman Halifax)纪事报,2019年2月8日,在研究111航班时,我关于1998年瑞士坠机事故的书,我首先偶然发现了亚历克斯·里奇曼(Alex Richman)的故事。乍一看,没有太多...
The Cat can’t come back… to Portland
But the money-sucking ferry service will continue to suck Nova Scotia tax dollars. That's good news for columnists, bad news for taxpayers.
The good news for need-to-always-be-even-more-shocked-and-yet-more-appalled columnists is that the Yarmouth ferry is the gift that keeps on giving. The bad news for taxpayers is that it is also the ferry that keeps on taking. I’ve been writing about the always-sinking-but-never-finally-sunk ferry service between Yarmouth and assorted ports in Maine since at least 2007. “Ferry Bad...
现在,无味的五人已经成为七个不发光的七人,现在已经过去了……?
斯蒂芬·麦克尼尔(Stephen McNeil)’s Liberals have made a mockery of the notion of public accountability. So the opposition parties need to step up and do their job. It is past time.
I have more than once described the Liberal members of the standing committee on public accounts — Vice Chair Gordon Wilson and MLAs Brendan Maguire, Suzanne Lohnes-Croft, Hugh MacKay and Ben Jessome — as the “Fangless Five” for their unfailingly fearless failure to do their job of holding the government to account. Someone on social...
遭遇重新遇到,今天有课程
1970年,十几名外部专家来到哈利法克斯(Halifax)一周,拒绝了这座城市的“颠倒”。本周,您可以看到NFB在哈利法克斯那个灾难性周上的纪录片《城市环境中的遭遇》中的摘录,并讨论是否是时候进行另一个颠倒的时候了。
I must admit I was surprised — and delighted — to Facebook-find a group I’d never heard of that is staging an event this Thursday to sit around, watch excerpts from a 50-year-old NFB documentary and then discuss, with Councillor Lindell Smith, HRM planners, and others, “parallels between the development happening in the 1970s and the...
卫生部长承诺修复长期护理,但没有任何钱来修复它
上周对该省统一的长期护理系统的专家面板报告向政府提供了一个呼吁,要求政府最终修复我们生病的长期护理系统。But the panel didn’t provide a clear, costed pathway to do that, in part because the government didn’t provide it with enough useful data about the existing problems and in part because the government wrote the panel’s job description precisely to make it difficult for them to talk about the only issue that will ultimately matter: money.
卫生部长兰迪·德洛里(Randy Delorey)说,他的政府在上周的专家面板报告中“将追求并采取行动”这五项建议和22项行动项目,涉及该省扁平卫生部的长期护理系统。背景:9月,一名未经治疗的,受感染的贝索雷斯(Bedsores)的妇女在长期护理机构中死亡。她不是第一个。和可疑的患者死亡...
The Fang-less Five, the McNeil government, and (un)accountability
In his own Trumpian, alternate-fact world, MLA Gordon Wilson wants us to believe the Public Accounts Committee can’t venture beyond the narrow confines of published auditor general’s reports when examining public spending because… well, that would be against the law. Time for Wilson to re-read the "law."
斯蒂芬·麦克尼尔Fang-less五,也被称为Craven Cabal of Liberal Nobodies, are up to their usual tricks. Still. Again. Let’s recap. Last April, a 19-year-old student, innocently looking for government information releases relating to an ongoing dispute between the provincial government and its teachers (you may remember that), was accidentally able to download...
艰苦的对话:为什么“奇妙的校长”拉马尔·埃森(Lamar Easeas)被暂停?
“People don’t like to talk about race, culture, bias,” Bayview Community School principal Lamar Eason explains, adding elliptically: “Doing your job can lead to questioning the people employing you. Understandably, people get defensive. But [race relations officers] are not there just to support schools; we’re also there to support students and their families. There can be some hard conversations.”
就在2018年11月5日星期一上课时,南岸地区教育中心(SSRCE)的人力资源总监在Mahone Bay的Bayview社区学校出现,未经公开声音。布莱恩·博尼亚(Brian Bonia)直接前往学校校长拉马尔·埃森(Lamar Easean)的办公室,在那里他提供了[…]的副本
杰拉尔德·里根(Gerald Regan)和我们#MeToo时刻的遗产
这不是陪审团从1998年开始的判决,我们应该记住今天,但是加拿大皇家骑警和检察官终于选择相信妇女对该国最有权势的政治人士之一。而且,更重要的是,女性(其中很多)为其他妇女站起来,并说#MeToo。
“陪审团成员,您是否同意您的判决?”The court clerk asked her rote question with a wavering, tell-me-don’t-tell-me tone that seemed to capture perfectly the nervous, nerve-wracked mood among the more than three dozen men and women sitting in the Halifax Law Court’s Courtroom 3-1 on the blustery afternoon of December 18,...
Shrubsall: Andy Fillmore’s challenge and opportunity
Is Halifax Liberal MP Andy Fillmore just one more mindlessly reliable yes-vote for whatever Justin Trudeau’s Liberals propose or oppose? Or could he fill what is now a political void and champion a non-partisan attempt to make sure our parole system helps those who deserve it while protecting the rest of us from dangerous offenders like William Shrubsall? T.C. — and the rest of us — are waiting.
这不仅仅是一笔交易。实际上,这笔交易几乎肯定已经超过了重新考虑的重点。但这不应阻止我们其他人要求那些达成协议的人的答案,也不应该从负责允许责任发生的人那里责任。11月7日,加拿大假释委员会...
在新斯科舍省比赛:向前迈出一小步,另一个巨大的飞跃
早在1968年秋天,斯托克利·卡迈克尔(Stokely Carmichael)的出现就吓坏了哈利法克斯(Halifax)。今天有课吗?
上个月,加拿大银行发布了新的10美元 - 班克诺特,其中包括加拿大标志性的加拿大民权先驱者Viola Desmond的形象,她拒绝在1946年在新格拉斯哥的Roseland Theatre的Phate Profly Section中放弃她的席位touched off this country’s modern civil rights era nine years before Rosa...
