HRM Municipal Elections

Fusion Halifax reached out to all the candidates in the election to share a questionnaire asking all candidates to share their positions about key issues impacting young professionals in Halifax.

We hope to use our position as advocates for young professionals in Halifax to inform voters about the perspectives of 2024 HRM municipal election candidates regarding issues facing young professionals in our communities, including housing, transportation, sustainability, and ensuring inclusive and accessible communities.
