No End In Sight for Transit Strike

With no visible end to the transit strike in sight, some HRM commuters are changing their ways — for good.

Rose Zack says she usually walks or takes the bus to work in the downtown area but since the strike hit she’s been biking from her home on Quinpool Road.

“It’s been forcing me to find other ways to get around, and I actually prefer biking,” Zack said, while holding the handlebars of a mint blue vintage-like bike on Barrington Street Thursday.

“I definitely will try and keep that up after (the strike is over)…. I’m really enjoying it.”

On Thursday afternoon, several bikes could be seen chained to lamp posts in the downtown core.

Talks broke off between the city and Amalgamated Transit Union Local 508, which represents the over 700 transit workers, early Thursday morning after a 21-hour marathon negotiating session, leaving commuters in limbo, wondering when the buses and ferries will start running again.

It can’t come soon enough for Danish Khan, a student at Dalhousie University. The Beechville resident is now forced to carpool into the city’s downtown core hours before his first class at noon.

“I have a student bus pass, so that’s usually all I use to get everywhere,” Khan said on Thursday. “And there’s no way I can pay for a cab ride.”

But other residents say they’re not fazed by the strike, and have been coping just fine.

Carol Johnstone said she often takes the bus, but also has the option to drive her car.

“Since I have a car, I’m not completely devastated,” said Johnstone, a local artist who lives near the Armdale Rotary. “I drive my car if I have to, and walk if it’s not too far.”

From Our E-mail:

My boyfriend is always checking out other girls in public and tries to be discreet about it, but I definitely notice!

I spoke to him about it and he says he’s sorry and that he doesn’t notice he’s doing it, but he continues anyway! It really bothers me, but if I’ve already spoke to him about it and he “can’t help it”, what do I do next?

Your daily horoscope

IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY:

An exciting new love is a possibility this year – or maybe an existing relationship will pick up and be fun like it used to be. Either way romance will take centre stage and both your days and your nights will be joyous.

ARIES (March 21 – April 20):

It’s a good thing you like surprises because there will be plenty today and over the weekend. Venus close to Uranus in your sign means there is no point making plans – all you can do is go with the flow.

TAURUS (April 21 – May 21):

Keep your wits about you today or you could lose out financially or emotionally. Someone you think is a friend may in fact be harbouring a grudge, so keep your eyes and ears open – and your pocket book closed.

GEMINI (May 22 – June 21):

Many strange things will happen today and tomorrow – the kind of things that make you wonder if there is more to life than what your five senses tell you. Of course there is, and deep down you know it already.

CANCER (June 22 – July 23):

You need to break free of routines and habits that hold you back from realizing your potential. You also need to think again about a long-term goal that may no longer be in your best interests. Time for a change.

LEO (July 24 – Aug. 23):

Try something new, something you have never done before. It does not have to be anything of great significance, just something that stretches you intellectually and emotionally. The last thing you need is to get stuck in a rut.

VIRGO (Aug. 24 – Sept. 23):

An issue that has been causing you problems is about to improve, although it may take a few days to get sorted. Don’t try to hang on to things that are being taken away from you – you’re better off without them.

LIBRA (Sept. 24 – Oct. 23):

You will meet someone today who inspires you to do more with your life. You will also, in your own small way, be an inspiration to other people, especially those who admire your easygoing attitude. Be a good example.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24 – Nov. 22):

Unexpected changes will throw you out of your stride for a while but a Scorpio is never in limbo for long and you will soon regain your confidence and find ways to make those changes pay. Somehow you always do.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 – Dec. 21):

You can expect some remarkable things to happen over the next few days. This is a hugely positive time for creative endeavours, so don’t sit there waiting for life to come to you – go out and meet it halfway.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 – Jan. 20):

Someone you are close to emotionally will do something that shocks you today but you should have seen it coming. Try not to be too conservative in your attitude or reaction. They’re entitled to be different.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 – Feb. 19):

You will get the red carpet treatment today. Everyone seems to think you are special – and they’re right, you are. But be selective where invitations are concerned. You may be popular but you cannot be everywhere at once.

PISCES (Feb. 20 – Mar. 20):

Friends and colleagues may need some convincing that what you are planning is a good idea but that won’t bother you in the slightest. Your sixth sense tells you it’s the right thing to do – and it’s rarely wrong.
