The article below by CBC is one of many we are seeing regularly that is shedding a light on the apparent stupidity playing out in CBRM. Why do I use a word like stupidity to describe a residential ATV Trail project?  Only something of utter stupidity could generate so many ludicrous questions like:

• Why is our current Mayor actively promoting an industry that is killing our residents?
• Why did these two council members shown HERE go rogue and bypass council and normal processes and trash a 10 year Active Transportation project (Approved by Council) and hand public land over to the Marconi Trail Blazers to build an ATV Trail? No Public Participation Process, No Question or vote in council, no land use evaluation and it is unknown (I have asked 3 times) if a Professional Engineer signed off on a public project that has a direct impact on public safety.
• Why did these same council members  reject CBRM Police recommendations to not put motorized vehicles on a residential trail?
• Why did these two council members go against their own constituents and build a tax dollar sink hole that nobody asked for?  
• Why did these two  council members drive up infractions against the Off-Road vehicle act of Nova Scotia by over ten times in our beautiful seaside community? How does this benefit our community? Why did they create such a problem for residents and Police Services?
• Why did these two council members think that creating a residential ATV Trail which nobody else has like this, was a good idea when the pediatric association of Nova Scotia and Canada both say that ATVs cause the most injuries and death in our children and reports out of the US along with the manufactures say that ATVs should not be driven on roadways, paved or unpaved.
• Why would these two council members build a residential ATV trail when residents, police and city managers all told them it was a mistake?

Doesn't make much sense does it? We are burning public money on something that will ultimately be reverted to an Active Transportation trail, but I guess we got lots of $$$ to spare in CBRM, eh?

ATV accidents jump in Nova Scotia as off-road sport grows in popularity, say RCMP

12 people have been killed driving all-terrain vehicles since 2019

Here is an official public endorsement from the Mayor's office of an industry that is killing our residents (I'm not making this up). The Mayor and her family are not welcome to drive their Off-Road vehicles through our community and yet she loves to do it do us. 

I have to make this statement so it is clear that I am not harassing our elected officials or any groups of people: The preceding is political commentary related to community damaging and people harming policies that need to be reversed for the betterment of "all CBRM". This article is about recent unsanctioned decisions and actions in CBRM that are causing real community issues and can most likely be correlated to deaths and injuries, that's all.
