Sad but true. Am one of the few still masking even in public spaces and elevators 😳

[💜 NB citizen Covid Updates @nb_covid_info]

Almost all HCW have immediately stopped masking in one Horizon facility I have heard from.

@crystalcrichard The knee pop 😭

[💜 NB citizen Covid Updates @nb_covid_info]

Arcturus is here in NB. It’s been sequenced.

Listen, Chris and I talk to the global variant tracking community every day

Public Health in NB doesn’t communicate

We communicate and we HAVE to because provincial public health doesn’t

We’ve had to find workarounds

@The_KingBee And they’re getting rid of the PCR program April 1st! 🙄

Brave women out on the streets of Kabul today following Talibans BAN on female education.

“They closed the schools, the world remained silent. They closed our universities. Silence. Now our educational courses?. What are we supposed to do? Kill ourselves?

Just over here raising our window game to heights beyond belief. Did we make a custom gown from dried corn stalks with a burlap bow closure & add a hand made leaf headpiece? Yes. Yes we did.

Someone please reach me how & when to take pics of this from outside without the glare?

IT’S OCTOBER 1ST 🎃

[Melissa Smith @maritimemel]

Cried when I read this 😭
The people of Atlantic Canada are truly the best and to see the devastation caused by Fiona breaks my heart. That anything good can come from this tragedy makes me feel a little better💙

[White Claw Canada @whiteclawcanada]

The true spirit of Newfoundland shines through! An incredible example of resilience and optimism in the wake of a devastating tragedy. We are in touch with Krystle directly and joining Canadians everywhere in supporting Hurricane Fiona relief efforts. Stay safe, everyone.

Heroes!!

[Nova Scotia Power @nspowerinc]

We know it’s been a tough day without power for many of you—please know our crews are on it and we’re doing everything we can to get the lights back on as soon as possible.

Today we have over 1,000 people working in the field, with more contractors arriving from out of province.

Krystle Collier’s Port Aux Basques home was destroyed by Hurricane Fiona. Her dining room collapsed into the garage.

This morning, she found her fridge washed up on shore. Still in her fridge was a box of White Claw Seltzers.

“It’s a good day to have a drink.”

[Melissa Smith @maritimemel]

Devastating 😢

[Eddie Sheerr @EddieSheerr]

The aftermath of #Fiona’s storm surge in Channel-Port aux Basques is heartbreaking. This video was taken earlier this morning by the @NTVNewsNL news crew in the area. #NLwx

[Melissa Smith @maritimemel]

The sky looks very ominous over SJ right now #Fiona

[Nathalie Sturgeon @nthlstrgn]

JUST IN: The province has declared Sept. 30 a provincial holiday in reignition of National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. The holiday, though, is optional for the private sector businesses.

[Melissa Smith @maritimemel]

Oh my. They know they don’t have to, right?!
