On the radio today, I was a guest of the Todd Veinotte show. You can hear me at the 37 minute mark, talking about what's going on here. Thanks to this show for the call, and for the conversation. halifax.citynews.ca/podcasts…
The issue of West Mabou Beach Provincial Park is important to Nova Scotians because handing it over to create a golf course would set a precedent for all protected land in the province. If they can do it here, they will do it anywhere. Comments on this: youtube.com/live/RP1xHzBWIfM…
An abridged version of my letter appears in the Provincial paper today, the Chronicle Herald. saltwire.com/nova-scotia/hal…

We're in a similar situation in the Coxheath Hills outside of Sydney.
They want to reopen a copper mine that closed a century ago, but massively increase its footprint to displace at least a dozen homes.

I think we are going to need help here. From fellow Nova Scotians. From people who want to protect a natural environment provincial park from development. I welcome your help and your voice. Thread follows:
It's clear that Tory Rushton, Tim Huston - they're not just going to "have conversations" about this golf course, but that they have already had them. Maybe figuring out how to say that actually, this is in our best interest. Whatever it is, it's being done without accountability
My letter to the editor was yesterday, and you can learn a lot in a day when your post goes viral. This morning's thoughts. @nsgov is not interested in environmental protection or the public voice. There is no transparency. We need help to stop it. We are only a small community.
I have been meeting some absolute beauties in Barcelona! My @NormaEditorial team! Today is the last day of the show!
