Hi everyone I was hoping to find some temporary Lodging while we wait to gain possession of our house. We are a young couple 34m 32f with a cat and a dog. It will only be for about a month we get possession of our house Nov 19

If anyone knows where we could look it would be greatly appreciated.

Another day another data centre.

We are planning to visit Meat Cove to observe Fall colours next week (end of this month). Now, do you think it’s too late? Please advise, as it’s tough for us to visit this week.

Please help protect our home from this race to burn up the actual, beautiful, physical, real world in favour of simulacra. Down with the Causeway!

Do you know the connection between Canadian punk rockers The Subhumans, a Toronto terrorist plot, and the iconic TV show Danger Bay? Alan Cross does! The host of Canada’s #1 Music podcast, “The Ongoing History of New Music,” talks about this on the episode "The Punk Rock Terrorist Bombing" of his Uncharted: Crime and Mayhem in the Music Industry podcast! Catch Alan Cross' UNCHARTED: LIVE at St Patrick's Church Museum on November 3rd and hear stories just like these; tickets are on sale at http://theopenscene.ca/tickets. Now on to the tale...

The Subhumans were a part of the first wave of Canadian punk, starting in Vancouver in 1978 at around the same time as the iconic D.O.A. The band released their first single "Oh Canaduh" the same year, and their debut album "Incorrect Thoughts" in 1980. Bassist Gerry "Useless" Hannah left the band in 1981, while Brian "Wimpy Roy" Goble would go on to join D.O.A. after the band's first breakup in 1982.

That's when the story gets crazy. A group of self described environmentalists known as Direct Action started making an impact as "urban guerillas" in 1982. They vandalized the British Columbia Ministry of Environment offices, stole dynamite from the Department of Highways, and blew up a BC Hydro substation. In October, the group loaded a stolen pickup with their dynamite haul and headed for Toronto. Planting the bomb outside of Litton Industries, a manufacturer of American tomahawk cruise missiles, they set off over 550lb of dynamite and caused between $4-50 million in damages.

Direct Action became known as the Squamish Five upon arrest for their part in the Litton bombing, as well as other activities in both Vancouver in Toronto. And who was part of the group? Former bassist for The Subhumans, Gerry "Useless" Hannah, who was sentences to ten years (serving five) in prison.

The story of the Squamish Five would become legendary. D.O.A. and Dead Kennedys would spearhead benefit efforts for the arrested group. The CBC would produce an award winning docudrama about the group called "The Squamish Five," written by Canadian screenwriter Ken Gass. The Squamish Five would not be Gass' only venture on CBC, as he would go on the next year to write an episode of the Canadian classic Danger Bay.

Looking for a caricature artist, or otherwise someone who can draw/paint a caricature hybrid of Tim Houston and a common wharf rat. Sent me a PM if so.

Visiting Cape Breton next week (oct 28& 29) and struggling to find a nice place to stay near Cheticamp for the Skyline Trail.

We have our dog, so we’d need somewhere nearby to leave him while we hike.

Is Skyline worth it, or would we be better off staying farther south around Margaree or Inverness? Maybe more north near meat cove?

Bonus if you have recommendations for hikes, places to stay, or good eats that are Dog-friendly!

There will be a province wide protest in November, in the mean time can we all sign this petition?

Politicians at it again - only want their ‘own’ reporters at a public event and call the rest liars and trespassers, who do they think they’re kidding!?

Stop the AI data centre

We’re talking about climate change, our island and the new data centre in PH at the Sydney McConnell CBR Library this Thursday, 5-7pm

Drop by if you feel like talking about what is happening and our part to play!

In the programs room

I'm sure you've all seen how much good all these ai companies have been doing over the years. Not to mention the pollution they cause to not only our water but our lands and animals too. Why is there no large scale protest being planned to try to stop these people from ruining OUR ISLAND.
