Lena M. Diab the Armdale Report THE HONOURABLE THE ARMDALE REPORT LENA M. DIAB VOL. 1 • NO. 1 • FEBRUARY 2014 MLA HALIFAX ARMDALE Welcome to the first edition of the Armdale Report! It has been almost 4 months since you elected me to be your MLA. My colleagues and I have been working steadily both at the House of Assembly and in our ridings. On December 7th, we officially opened my constituency office. Located on the Armdale Rotary, our address is 2625 Joseph Howe Drive, Suite 26. Thank you to everyone who attended our open house and brought a donation of food or money to give to Feed Nova Scotia. We filled over 4 large boxes which we delivered to Feed Nova Scotia just before Christmas. I started the new year by attending various events with municipal councillors Linda Mosher (District 9), Russell Walker (District 10) and Stephen Adams (District 11). We attended the 20th annual Herring Cove Polar Bear Dip. We also shared in the wonderful New Year’s Levee festivities held at various local events. It was great to see so many people of all ages enjoy the company of family and friends. In January, I also had the opportunity to tour J.L Ilsley High School with MLA Brendan Maguire from Halifax Atlantic. We met with Principal Gordon McKelvie to discuss the current condition of the building and how we may be able to assist. As a mother of four children, I understand the impact a positive high school experience can have in shaping the future of our youth. I want to assure you that our voices have been heard. We are returning to the school later this month with Education Minister Karen Casey to show her and discuss with her the improvements required. I am extremely honoured and humbled to have been granted the opportunity to serve my community. I look forward to the work we can do together. Please keep in touch and let me know if there are any events you would like me to attend or to include in upcoming newsletters. UPCOMING EVENTS Feb 25, 2014 – I will be on the panel of an Immigration Town Hall hosted by Minister Diana Whalen and MLA Patricia Arab at the Keshen Goodman Public Library in Clayton Park from 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm. All welcome to attend. Feb 28, 2014 – Nova Scotia Legal Aid will be providing out-reach services through the Eastern Chebucto Hub Organizations on 531 Herring Cove Road.

    VOLUME 32, NUMBER 3 225 Fig. 1. Eulythis mellinata F. Female from Armdale, Halifax, Nova Scotia. 31 July 1972. J. Edsall. 3.5X. America at Laval (Isle Jesus), Quebec on 10 July 1967 (l male), 24 June 1973 (1 female), 1 July 1973 (1 male) (Sheppard 1975, Ann. Entomol. Soc. Quebec 20: 7), 28 June 1974 (1 male), 7 July 1974 (1 female), 29 June 1975 (l female), 18 June 1976 (1 male) and 24 June 1976 (1 male) (Sheppard, 1977, pers. comm.). The introduction of Eulythis mellinata in Nova Scotia was almost certainly recent as the specimen was collected in an area which has been intensively collected for the last 30 years, yet this is the only specimen which has been taken to date. The occur­ rence of the moth in two widely separated localities in eastern Canada indicates well­ established populations, and its occurrence in other eastern North American localities should therefore be expected. A photograph of the adult has been included to aid in identification. KENNETH NEIL, Department of Biology, Dalhousie University, Halifax, Nova Scotia.
