Dartmouth Councillor Jim Smith says its evident already that the new owners of the former Little Nashville cabaret in Dartmouth, who intend to open an adult entertainment club at that location, will not be good neighbours.
Councillor Smith says that HRM posted a seven-day Order to Remedy on the property at 169 Wyse Road on December 8, requiring the property owner to clean-up refuse and debris at the site.
He said the deadline has passed and the property owner, Javis Roberts, has ignored the municipal order. In addition, area residents claim that someone from the building took down the notice shortly after it was posted
“There has been a large pile of construction debris piled up outside the back of the building since November. The fact he (Mr. Roberts) isn’t willing to keep his property clean and in good order is a sure sign of things to come, says Councillor Smith.
Councillor Smith and area residents are strongly opposed to an adult entertainment club opening and operating at 169 Wyse Road, which is largely surrounded by residential neighbourhoods. |

Dartmouth - Peter Mancini, NDP candidate in Dartmouth-Cole Harbour, thanked Paul Martin for finally coming to Nova Scotia - twenty-three days into the federal election campaign.
“The fact that Paul Martin did not come to Nova Scotia until over three weeks into the federal election campaign, is yet another example of Liberal arrogance”, said Mancini, “And to add insult to injury, he simply re-announced a program that was announced months ago”.

Liberal Leader Francis MacKenzie wants the Nova Scotia Department of Community Services to open up more portable daycare spaces.
In August and September 2005, the Department of Community Services held consultations on future investments in childcare. The input received was to be used to develop Nova Scotia's five-year plan for childcare, but to date no plan has been made public. On May 16, 2005 the Province of Nova Scotia signed a five-year agreement with the federal government that provided an additional $20.4 million, which is available to be drawn down before March 31, 2006.

This is a time of joy and wonder, a time to promote peace and understanding, a time that brings family and friends together in celebration. It is a time for communities to come together, to give and to share -- a time to build the kind of respect for each other that helps us to be stronger.

Motor vehicle collisions claim more lives and cause more injuries for children and youth than any other cause in Canada. The new changes will require children to be buckled into a proper-fitting booster seat until they are old enough, or large enough, to safely use an ordinary seatbelt.
"Securing children into the right kind of car seat makes a huge difference," said Transportation and Public Works Minister Ron Russell. "When correctly used and installed, child car seats can reduce deaths by about 90 per cent and injuries by 70 per cent. These changes are going to protect our children if they are involved in a crash."
