    OPINION: Walk and read for a better community in Cape Breton (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Walking and reading – along with others, if possible – are antidotes to the craziness around us. They help us connect, understand and be part of building small, healthy communities that can persevere in spite of it all. I think walking with others and sharing about what we read can help us to build support systems for ourselves and our neighbours. By walking and reading, I really mean – more broadly – observing, listening and learning (I am aware of the mobility and literacy barriers that many p

    URBANIAK: Find your name day and what you care about (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    September is Nova Scotia Polish Heritage Month, and the theme this year is storytelling. You don’t have to be connected to Polish heritage to try a little name-day exercise this month. If you see a Polish wall calendar, you will notice that each day has a few names listed on it. Until recently, name days (imieniny) were bigger than birthdays in many Polish regions. They’re easier to remember, and nobody asks how old you are on your name day! In Poland and Polish diaspora communities, the name da

    Sidewalk Joy movement will be good for Nova Scotia (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Within walking distance of my home in Glace Bay, there is a tiny, purple and white, wooden, public-facing exchange library. It’s in front of a modest, tidy home. It’s a gesture – a contribution – to people walking by. Now imagine a similar, quirky, one-of-a-kind box displaying little toys, ornaments, mugs or unique trinkets for exchange. Alas, a so-called Sidewalk Joy spot. The Sidewalk Joy movement is gaining traction, including here in Nova Scotia. And that’s a good thing. Sidewalk Joy’s focus

    CBRM’s management problems go beyond garbage (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Imagine for a moment the Cape Breton Regional Municipality (CBRM) with excellent, responsive, no-nonsense delivery of public services. Imagine municipal politicians and senior staff relentlessly pushing something like a FACE Forward agenda. That’s my shorthand acronym: It stands for fast – as in quick delivery of good services and rapid responses to citizens. Active – meaning healthy residents and engaged, well-designed communities. Clean – as in clean it up, literally and figuratively. Excellen

    OPINION: Why the silence on Kimberly Prost? (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    We should all be talking much more about Kimberly Prost. Prost is an accomplished Canadian jurist – a judge on the trial division of the International Criminal Court, only the second Canadian to serve as a judge of the ICC. She is a former employee of the Government of Canada. She has worked for the United Nations. Yet the government of Canada, which has calculated that it is best to appease United States President Donald Trump, has so far declined to condemn, or join a legal action against, the
