In an announcement on Friday, the Nova Scotia Government said they will build an additional 25 public housing units in eight communities across the province by March.
More than two dozen public housing units are being built across the province using relief funding from the wildfires last summer, part of the largest investment in public housing in Nova Scotia in a generation.
HALIFAX Police in Halifax have charged a woman for failing to social distance under Nova Scotia s Health Protection Act. Around 9:20 p.m. on Friday, members of the Halifax District RCMP responded to a call of youth sitting in a fenced-in area of a closed business on Old Beaver Bank Road in Lower Sackville, N.S. Once police arrived, they located a woman and three youths sitting at a table. Police say none of the individuals were wearing masks, nor were they physically distanced from each other. A ticket was issued to the woman for failing to social distance and police “warned the youths.”
