If @nspowerinc can't prevent multiple 4+ hour power outages from occuring/year, then there should be a rebate during mass outages for all the spoiled food. It's ridiculous that amidst this inflation we're expected to empty our fridges and replace everything every time it happens
WTH @nspowerinc - another emergency outage for public safety? 🤯🤬
I’d like to know how @nspowerinc determined which communities it deemed worthy of the power outage today over others. I took note of all of the upper class portions of the city that kept their power today.
Random power outages are happening in the #NovaScotia area. @nspowerinc @HRMFireNews @NSPowerOutages
