Katsihtis Wills & Estates • Criminal Law Barristers and Solicitors by Jessica Norman The coronavirus pandemic has pre- vented many things this year, but Trick or Eat a success! was unable to hinder the spirit of volunteerism for a group of JL Ilsley students this Halloween. Led by this year’s organizer, Jessica Norman, a dedicated group of twenty three student volunteers set out to the side- walks on the evening of October 31st, ready and excited to participate in JL’s annual Trick or Eat Food Drive. Trick Or Eat is an annual fundrais- ing event in which students collect food donations in a door-to-door fashion. All student participants wore non-medical face coverings, and all food donations were collected in a contactless manner. The dispersion of the small groups allowed for a wide radius of homes to be included in the event, with almost every home in the area offering generous donations. Many students went as far as to don creative Halloween costumes, includ- ing various pop culture references. In spite of complications due to the virus, this year’s event proved just as fruitful as previous iterations. Col- lected in smaller teams of volunteers, the final yield was four car-loads of non-perishable food donations. All proceeds were taken to the Chebucto Family Centre directly after the event, JL Students’ Council Executive Members (left to right) Breagh Langille, Jessica Norman, and Anna Jericho at the JL Ilsley Trick or Eat Campaign” and were left to quarantine over the weekend. In reflection, the JL Ilsley Students’ Council is incredibly proud of the great success this event turned out to be. Each and every participating stu- dent would like to offer their greatest thanks to all those who supported this wonderful Halloween initiative. In a year of unfortunate disappointments, this event was a shining success for the JL Ilsley community, and will be remembered by participants for years to come.

    Public x Report No. 11-10-1317 Private Date: October 18, 2011 HALIFAX REGIONAL SCHOOL BOARD Nova Scotia Utility and Review Board Electoral Boundary Report PURPOSE: To provide the Board with information regarding the upcoming electoral boundary hearing at the Nova Scotia Utility and Review Board. BACKGROUND: On July 27, 2011, the Nova Scotia Utility and Review Board (NSUARB) released its decision regarding the number of electoral districts and councillors representing the Halifax Regional Municipality (HRM). The number of electoral districts and councillors has been reduced from 23 to 16 plus the Mayor. Based on this decision, HRM’s electoral boundaries will be significantly altered for the October 2012 election. The Nova Scotia Utility and Review Board determined the number of electoral boundaries and directed HRM to formulate the altered districts. HRM has provided two scenarios and gathered public comment regarding these proposed electoral districts. On October 21, 2011, HRM will submit the proposed boundaries to the NSUARB which will hold a hearing on November 7, 2011. It is in the mandate of the NSUARB to make the final determination of the electoral boundaries. This decision will be based on both public comment and legislative requirements. The primary consideration in electoral district reviews is voter equality, which endeavours to achieve relative parity across electoral districts and is measured by calculating and comparing the variances in the number of electors per district. The NSUARB has determined the acceptable variances

  • Welcome Package
    WELCOME PACKAGE Welcome to K'jipuktuk (Halifax), Nova Scotia! We hope you enjoy the 9th Annual Critical Dietetics Conference, as well as your stay in this city. On the pages of this welcome package you’ll find the following information to help guide you: Introduction to the Region …………………..…………………….……………………..……….1 Transportation from Halifax Stanfield Airport………..………….………………………….….…2 Accommodation in Halifax Regional Municipality……………….…………………………..…..3-4 Halifax Stanfield Airport to Accommodations……………………...……………………………5-8 Halifax Stanfield Airport to Mount Saint Vincent University …………………….……..…………9 Transportation Within Halifax Regional Municipality…………………………………………….10 Accommodations to Mount Saint Vincent University…………………………………………11-14 Local Events and Activities ………………………………………………………………………15 1 Introduction K'jipuktuk (Halifax) and Nova Scotia are in Mi’kma’ki, the ancestral and unceded territory of the Mi’kmaq People. This territory is covered by the “Treaties of Peace and Friendship” which Mi’kmaq and Wolastoqiyik (Maliseet) People first signed with the British Crown in 1725. The treaties did not deal with surrender of lands and resources but in fact recognized Mi’kmaq and Wolastoqiyik (Maliseet) title and established the rules for what was to be an ongoing relationship between nations. This October is Mi’kmaq History Month, for more information on Mi’kmaq history and events, please see: https://mikmaqhistorymonth.ca/mikmaq-history/. For people new to the area, it can be very confusing when someone refers to Halifax, Halifax Regional Municipality (HRM), or one of the many regions. HRM is a large geographical area, about the size of Prince Edward Island, which covers various combined municipalities that were previously separate. Referring to HRM or Halifax could mean any number of places and is very non-specific, including the following general regions: Bedford-Sackville, Dartmouth-Cole Harbour, Downtown Halifax, Eastern Shore, Musquodoboit Valley, North End, Peggy’s Cove, and the West End.

  • Council, October 30, L975 Dog Nuisance Alderman Walker Stated
    Council, October 30, l975 Dog Nuisance Alderman Walker stated that there is a problem in Ward 7, especially in the Carson Street development area. with dogs roaming loose. He stated that the police have been there with the dog patrol but there are still packs of dogs roaming through the area and it is causing concern to the residents. The Acting City Manager suggested increased vigilance and attention to the matter by the Police Dept. and he stated he would discuss the matter with the Chief of Police. 2116 Brunswick Street - Extension of Permit Alderman Downey stated that the building at 2116 Brunswick Street has been boarded up but children are gaining access to it. He stated that the owner has asked to have the building boarded up until spring and he asked if a permit has been issued. The Acting City Manager advised that a report will be issued in this regard. Exact Fare — Halifax Transit Corporation Deputy Mayor Stanbury referred to the inauguration of the exact fare system by the Halifax Transit Corporation effective November 1, 1975. She suggested that this is creating more problems than it is solving and asked if the bus driver can legally refuse to accept legal tender other than the exact fare. She expressed concern that this system necessitates children carrying money which puts them in needless danger. His Worship advised that the determinations of exact fare are the determinations of the Board of Utilities of the Province of Nova Scotia. He stated that in the case of a transit patron who enters upon a bus and cannot make the exact fare, an overpayment will be accepted and a voucher handed to him which, upon production at Halifax Transit Corp- oration offices, will result in restoration of the overage.
