Premier had data leaks affecting 1 million Nova Scotians that has not been addressed, and a Privacy Minister #TimHouston won't grant power to do her job.

#Dalhousie University and #NovaScotia Health are refusing interviews to discuss the situation after a Nova Scotian woman learned that a fellow student snooped repeatedly in her medical records. #NSHealth #NSpoli

I have been cruising the #NSHealth blood collection booking site to make an appointment. I did not realize the difference between availability of appointments in HRM and elsewhere. Middleton: Jan 13, Truro: Jan 13 – then all booked up. HRM: availability most days between now and early January. Driving 45 minutes each way for appointment I found next Monday. #NSPoli #HealthCare
