Good morning! Participating in the Halifax Chamber Get to Know Your Mayoral Candidates event this morning, and campaigning the rest of the day.
Ex MP and current mayoralty candidate Andy Filmore says police told him Halifax was attracting 'outsiders' to homeless camps. Police say they have no evidence that's true and didn't tell Fillmore that. www.thecanadianpressnews.ca/politics/may...
HALIFAX - A candidate for Halifax mayor says the municipality's approach to homeless encampments has encouraged unhoused people from across the country to move to the city to live in
Since we're talking about it - I'm casting my vote for mayor for @wayemason.bsky.social Do I always agree with him? No, but I do more often than I don't and he always explains his reasoning. He's done the work, he's got a workable plan, he loves this city. I'm happy to support him.
Most of them are right, some of them are wrong and get fixed when it's identified as a problem. There are thousands of signs in the ROW right now like this, most are done properly. Keep call 311 and it will get fixed. I will say I am totally ok with increasing fines on contractors who do it wrong.
The subdivision process is pretty quick, I am not sure when they applied after they got development approval 2 years ago. Affordable housing at 20% is a fed target... HRM didn't set that.
Always amazing to start the weekend with a visit to Alderney Landing's Saturday Farmers Market. Grabbed a coffee and oat cake at Port City and talked to a lot of folks about the issues and opportunities we face in Dartmouth and HRM!
Good morning! Met with Dalhousie planning folks this morning, speaking to a Poli Sci class at MSVU this afternoon, and attending the Celebrate YWCA Halifax's 150th Anniversary celebration tonight!
I am glad to see the Feds starting to build at Shannon!
Herring Cove Road? Call 311, that's not ok. Not sure what they can do about it given the cliff, but still not ok
