@Chrisde13314521 Thanks! We are very busy right now. Except for engineered slabs, we are mostly just taking on work for contractors, designers and architects that we typically work with. Sounds like they probably need a designer first anyway.

On Dec. 6, 1989, the country was forever changed. 14 women died at Montreal’s École Polytechnique, killed simply because they were women. They were brilliant students, creative thinkers, beloved sisters and cherished daughters. Remember them today.

[Dalhousie University @DalhousieU]

Campus flags have been lowered and will remain lowered until end-of-day today to mark two recent deaths in the Dal community along with the anniversary of the Halifax Explosion and the National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women. https://t.co/REvmDEUlVb

I was in my first year of university studying Math when the women were murdered in the Montreal Massacre. Undeterred, I switched to Engineering less than 4 months later and never looked back. #womeninSTEM #womeninEngineering

[Julie Bindel @bindelj]

Today I am thinking of the victims of the Montreal Massacre, 1989 in which 14 female students were gunned down by a misogynist male. We must never forget the root cause of men's violence towards women and girls. And we remember the dead: https://t.co/9mGGKjdW3v

🤔 RT @DaveBoyce: There is a dead dog on Dunbrack. Called the City of #Halifax, they told me it's a provincial issue. Called the Province of #NovaScotia, told me it's a SPCA issue. Called @NSSPCA and no one answers the phone.

There is a police presence at Dartmouth High, John Martin Jr High and Woodlawn High schools. Dartmouth High and John Martin are in hold and secure for precautionary reasons.
