Hey has anyone ever seen Yarmouth mentioned in any kind of media? Fictional or otherwise?
I’m thinking maybe it’s like a local hallucination or something.

Ticks & Camping in Nova Scotia
Heading to Nova Scotia in June for a month. Will be camping around the west side of the province this time. Hitting places like Halifax, Mahone Bay, Lunenburg, Yarmouth, Digby, Keji Park. Have been reading about how bad ticks are in the province. Any advice for protecting ourselves? Our Havanese dog has already had Lyme disease. We will be updating her shots soon. We like to hike and thought about getting those gaiters to help keep them out of our pantlegs. Bug spray with deet i think is also or that product called Atlantick i think it has lemongrass scent
Any suggestions for what we can spray or put around our camper?

Survey suggests 'very little support' on alcohol expansion into corner stores
cbc.caThose of you who had a vasectomy, who did yours? How was the experience? Any long term negative effects?
I’m currently on the fence and have been looking into it. I’ve read a lot of positive stories but also some quite negative ones. The thing that scares me most is the 1-15% chance of having long lasting chronic pain…. Doesn’t seem very promising.
I don’t want kids, my partner doesn’t want kids. We have discussed it. She can’t get a IUD and I don’t want her to have to deal with birth control side effects or anything like that so I’m considering getting the “snip”
It’s safe to say I’ve got some anxiety around the whole thing lol. I was circumcised in my early 20’s and lost quite a bit of sensitivity down there, wish I didn’t have to get it done and tried other methods to deal with the problem I was having first but I didn’t. I went under the knife no questions asked. This has led me to be a bit suspicious and not trusting of doctors/ urologists. I know it’s not their fault and it was my decision. I just wish they would have told me there were some other things I could have tried before going under the knife.
TLDR: who are the most reputable vasectomy performers in the province?

cbc.caAnyone else partake in urbex?
I’ve been doing it for a couple months and found some really cool places that I would like to trade with other urbex people!
I’ve got a couple industrial places & residential that were wicked to check.
Send me a pm or comment and I’ll send you one!Don’t comment locations please!

Another 1990s School Visit Theory
Further to my astronaut visit post yesterday (I emailed the Canadian Space Agency, so hope to hear from them!) a friend and I were discussing all of the different visitors we had at school... this would have happened between 1991 and 1996... she reminded me of another visit we were hoping to remember fully. This is her message to me, "Also have vivid memory of a man and woman who did skits and sang and having a VHS tape of it where they were doing skits about aliens and being on a space ship and no one has any idea. I can’t find anything on google."
I remember them too, I know we bought the tape! Anyone have any ideas?
Resources/contacts for “settlers” looking to practice Mi’kmaq allyship?
Given the raids this week, I’m particularly curious. If only for something to keep myself well informed on First Nations’ perspectives. As of now all I really have are some informal acquaintances from FN communities.

Nova Scotia goes after native cannabis sales
Should government ignore native cannabis and tobacco sales? Natives are beginning to blockade highways and tensions are rising against police. Hwy 102 is a vital road link.
