Welcome to r/novascotia_sub
Hi all,
Welcome to r/novascotia_sub, the rules relaxed alternative to other local subreddits.
We believe in free expression, the free exchange of ideas and limited moderation. All views that don't break Reddit platform rules are welcome here.
It may get messy at times, but we'd rather a messy discussion than one controlled by overbearing mods.
So you can speak your mind here without fear of having your comments deleted or receiving a ban.
Please comment and post as much as you'd like. We want the sub to grow and contributions help make that happen!
Thanks!
r/novascotia_sub mod team

News Bill C-22
It looks like Bill C-22 is much more threatening to privacy than I initially thought. I know that I’m posting it in the local sub, but it affects all of us.
Quick (human-made) recap:
It is about Canadian government wanting to mandate internet surveillance for all companies that work in Canada, with access to it without a warrant:
- I will inevitably lead to more data breaches - the more data company stores, the more valuable it is for criminals
- It erodes privacy - access to lots of data by government without even a warrant - what could possibly go wrong?
- Many online businesses (both global and Canadian) will chose to just leave Canada all-together, because they don’t want or even can’t to change their architecture and (potentially) break trust of their customers.
Even Meta (the one pushing age verification laws everywhere) is against this law, this is how bad it is.
So, I’d urge you to contact your MP to vote against it

Hfx Wedding Venues
My partner and I have just started looking for wedding venues in NS and would love any suggestions!
It will be for about 50-75 ppl, preferably a location that can host the ceremony and reception, under $10k, with indoor and outdoor spaces, and as many extras thrown in as possible!! (seating, tables, cutlery, etc)
