The Nova Scotia government broke the law by allowing Sunday shopping, should they be held accountable for it?

MS. MAUREEN MACDONALD spoke at the Legislature on WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 2006

"Mr. Speaker, but certainly their position added to the confusion and perpetuated the idea that somehow the courts had struck down Sunday shopping in our province. That simply did not occur."

Diana Whalen's quest for a family day Holiday in February
Posted by sos on Monday, January 09 @ 02:42:45 PST (216 reads)
Sunday Shopping in Canada On January 5th on News 95.7Fm on the Rick Howe show , I was listening to Rick and his guest Diana Whalen. Every year she has been pushing for Nova Scotia to adopt
a day in February as a family day . It's quite ironic that her party supported the government in taking away 52 family days and now she wants to give us one back.

Should Toronto stores be open on holidays?

Sunday Shopping in Canada
When I came across this story on CTV's web site in Toronto "Should Toronto stores be open on holidays?" I just had to respond, thinking that the station would actually put my comments on their web site. How wrong  I was to
believe that they would actually do it?  It's not hard to see that Sunday shopping is still an issue in Toronto even though they had Sunday shopping for years.

Sunday Shopping in Canada In case you haven't read,"Valerie Payn's" article in the Chronicle Herald, the story can be found here titled "Sunday Shopping 5 Years Later" . She speaks about change and how we are scared of change and how good it was for Nova Scotia. She's got to be kidding!

The simple solution to the price increase in gas

Sunday Shopping in Canada
As the debate rages on about gas prices and how it effects us, one has to wonder why we continue to remain silent about it.

TD Banks open on Sundays
Posted by sos on Friday, February 11 @ 18:45:31 PST (2510 reads)
Sunday Shopping in Canada As I watched the commercials on ATV this past two weeks, I'm shaking my head!  300 TD Banks across the country are now open on Sundays. After hearing that, some memories came back to me of an incident that took place before the 2004 Sunday shopping plebiscite, when I went to my local bank and Sunday shopping came up.

Prince Edward Island Sunday shopping law voted down
Posted by sos on Friday, November 26 @ 03:10:31 PST (1511 reads)
Sunday Shopping in Canada I have to be honest, that  after reading the news on CBC Canada's last Sunday shopping law voted down ,I'm fuming over this decision because so many people in PEI have not had the opportunity to vote on it. Why did Robert Ghiz allow a free vote in the legislature and at the same time allow his own party members to vote on what they wanted to?

PEI Tories table an opposition bill to allow Sunday shopping year around in PEI
Posted by sos on Wednesday, November 24 @ 03:14:48 PST (1265 reads)
Sunday Shopping in Canada
The PEI Tories table an opposition bill to allow Sunday shopping year around in PEI. Opposition leader Olive Crane plans to introduce a private members bill. Private members bills rarely pass into law. Tonight premier Robert Ghiz on an interview on ATV suggested that he may let this go to a vote in the legislature. It's really easy to pass the buck Mr. Premier isn't it? Didn't you promise Prince Edward Islanders no Sunday shopping for half a year? I've lost all faith in politicians because they rarely keep any promises. It figures, that a Tory (Olive Crane)would want to get stores open in PEI, as we had one here in Nova Scotia ( Rodney MacDonald that lied to all of us.)

Lift Sunday shopping restrictions

Sunday Shopping in Canada Lift Sunday shopping restrictions you might ask? No we are not talking about  Prince Edward Island being the last place to have restricted Sunday shopping. We're talking about Manitoba who also restricts Sunday shopping.
