At 8:42 AM, #hfxfirefighters responded to reports of a brush fire on Bissett Road in Cole Harbour

Our members arrived quickly and were able to contain the fire before it spread further.

This is a good reminder that the fire ban remains in place

[NS Auditor General @OAG_NS]

The @nsgov bill tabled this week could mean any Auditor General report Government doesn’t like "wouldn’t be made public and the numerous veto powers could result in fewer public reports," says AG Kim Adair. Her full media statement here: https://t.co/XK3WHRqPd9

Thank you, Wela’lin, @IainTRankin for loaning my MLA office with the beautiful artwork of Loretta Gould. While I will miss this art piece I am pleased to gift it to @JarvisGoogoo Jarvis is a cousin of the artist. May you enjoy this artwork as much as I did, Jarvis.

Pregnancy and infant loss impacts so many, often in silence. On Pregnancy and Infant Loss Awareness Day, I’m recognizing Ruby’s Law, passed by @LoreleiNicoll in 2022. Her advocacy in honor of her granddaughter Ruby ensures grieving parents now have the support they deserve.

@Sultanofmonog @MikeSavageHFX Thank you for letting me know. I will follow up with the @hfxgov area Councillor.

[Lorelei Nicoll @LoreleiNicoll]

@Sultanofmonog @MikeSavageHFX I will pass this on to the area @hfxgov Councillor. Thank you.

June 21 is National Indigenous People's Day. We recognize & commemorate the history, culture, & resilience of Indigenous people in Nova Scotia & Canada. Today & every day we acknowledge the traditional & ancestral territory in Nova Scotia & remember that we are all treaty people.

[Hon. Zach Churchill @zachchurchill]

Temperatures in Nova Scotia are reaching 40 degrees today with the humidex. In 2022, MLA @LoreleiNicoll tabled a bill to bring a vulnerable persons registry to Nova Scotia, making it easier to reach vulnerable people in an emergency. We're still waiting on the Houston government to act on it. #nspoli

[Nova Scotia Legislature @NSLeg]

June is Indigenous History Month in Nova Scotia – a time to honour the rich cultures, traditions, and contributions of Mi’kmaq communities. Let’s continue to support, learn and advocate for Indigenous rights and history.

[Governor General of Canada @GGCanada]

On #RedDressDay, we honour missing and murdered Indigenous women, girls and two-spirit individuals. Let us continue to advocate for systemic change and work towards a future where everybody feels safe in their communities.

With warmer temperatures & drier conditions, Nova Scotians are reminded to burn safely & only when permitted. Burning is prohibited every day between 8am-2pm. After 2pm, burn restrictions vary. Please visit https://t.co/v9lLGgMdWc daily to see where and when burning is permitted.

[Lorelei Nicoll @LoreleiNicoll]

Thank you to all the amazing volunteers and members of the Portland Estates & Hills Residents’ Association who came out today to pick up litter and debris from our natural spaces! It is caring folks like you who take pride in our communities and make them great places to live!

[Lorelei Nicoll @LoreleiNicoll]

I want to thank the many service providers across NS who work with women who find the strength to leave an abusive situation. The fact that these organizations are overburdened & in some cases are forced to turn women away, speaks to the extent of the issue in our province.

[Lorelei Nicoll @LoreleiNicoll]

Over my time in public office, police have continually confirmed that domestic violence calls were their #1 dispatched case & given the NS Justice Min’s public comments stating Nova Scotians are not “seeing it everywhere all the time,” I feel compelled to say …/2

We are shocked and angered.
Our statement on comments by Ministers Johns. #novascotia #IPV #GBV #domesticviolence #domesticviolenceisanepidemic

[Lorelei Nicoll @LoreleiNicoll]

it is because only 2% of intimate partner violence cases are reported. If the government doesn’t focus on the MCC report recommendations, incl acknowledging domestic violence as an epidemic, it will never get better./3
