I’m somewhat concerned that the “black mark” of this, again, will stop other organizations from considering booking in Halifax even when the thing is completed. It’s now an established track record of “Halifax” not following through on a commitment it made….you cannot BUY that kind of bad press, but you sure can earn it, and memories can be long.

Episode #33 of The Tideline, with Tara Thorne is published.

Breagh Isabel—you likely know her as Breagh Mackinnon, formerly of folk-pop trio Port Cities—has reemerged with a new skill set and a sweet new single in “Girlfriends,” which looks back at her coming-of-age as a queer person in Cape Breton. She’ll gently pop into the show to talk about her new direction as an artist, why she moved on from Port Cities (spoiler alert: it’s totally cool), and what her future plans are once the pandemic ends.

The Tideline has moved to a new platform, and all episodes are free from now on! You can listen to the latest one by clicking the link above, or subscribe to get them to automatically download to your device — check out the great instructional article here. For help or questions, email Suzanne.

In 1995, Brenda Way was brutally murdered behind a Dartmouth apartment building. In 1999, Glen Assoun was found guilty of the murder. He served 17 years in prison, but steadfastly maintained his innocence. In 2019, Glen Assoun was fully exonerated.

Halifax Examiner founder and investigative journalist Tim Bousquet has followed the story of Glen Assoun's wrongful conviction for over five years. Now, Bousquet tells that story as host of Season 7 of the CBC podcast series Uncover: Dead Wrong.
