City council has lifted the moratorium on using biosolids on HRM land. Marilyn Cameron thinks it’s a boneheaded move. We find out why. Tim Outhit voted to lift the moratorium, we hear why. Also we’ll talk about the Occupy Halifax protest – Mayor Kelly gave the eviction notice to get off City Hall property by Nov 6. Downtown councillor Dawn Sloane chats about the biosolids issue. She voted against lifting the moratorium. We’ll also chat about the Oval and Occupy Halifax with Dawn. Paul Bennett with Schoolhouse Consulting chats with us on the motion on snow days at HRM school board tonight.
