I’m pretty proud of the Blue Jays performance and am thankful for the playoffs bringing our country, family & friends a little closer together over the past month. Such fun for those of us that enjoy baseball/have nostalgia with this team. #wantitall ⚾️ Until next year!

Had a great time listening and chatting with residents about Halifax Urban Greenway extension project, one 23 years in the making, this afternoon.

We are at the 10% design stage, so it’s a great time for your input to shape the project going forward.

FYI these 6 year old trees will stay put during Bruswick Street micromobility lane construction. The orange fencing is to protect them. Soil cells will be added under the path to help them grow and thrive. (SGR & Brunswick)
