In this edition of HFX Votes 2024 I sit down with two of the authors of the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives report: Building Inclusive Communities: A Policy Agenda for Nova Scotia Municipalities that Leaves No One Behind.

In this conversation, Christine Saulnier the CCPA’s Nova Scotia director, explains how the city could save a lot of money by bringing services, like snow clearing, in-house. She also explains how the way we do snow removal might be a little bit sexist.

The other other, Kyle Buott, gives some practical solutions to the city. Did you know there’s a way the city could make more revenue *and* get Canadian National Railway to let us use their tracks for light rail?

Two administrative notes: First, in the episode I say that the land lord registry is coming into effect, that’s not true, it’s been in effect since April 1, 2024. And second, you may notice that citation 169 has me as an author, please calibrate your critical thinking appropriately.
