We, the undersigned, disagree with the decision by the Province of Nova Scotia to break its 2007 Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Union of Nova Scotia Municipalities that saw the Province absorb costs for corrections and public housing and limit increases in municipal contributions to education to the Consumer Price Index. We strongly object to the introduction of Legislation on April 15th to cancel the MOU, and we support Mayor Peter Kelly and members of Council in insisting that this government reverse its decision to ignore the 2007 UNSM MOU and work with the Halifax Regional Municipality instead of blind-siding them financially.
