Welcome
Ryan Dodge: A New Vision for Halifax’s Future
Ryan Dodge stands as a candidate who embodies resilience and unwavering determination.
My Platform
From City to Rural, serving every km² of Halifax.
A Vision for a More Inclusive Halifax:
My plan is simple -- analyze what isn't working and see where funding could be better used.
Housing for All:
- Mini Home Villages: Establish more safe, supportive mini home communities for those experiencing homelessness, offering stable housing and essential services.
- Expanded Shelter Network: Increase 24/7 shelter options, with specialized facilities for women, youth, and those with mental health challenges.
- More outreach workers: Halifax needs more outreach workers to connect vulnerable populations with essential services, reduce homelessness, and build a stronger, healthier community by addressing mental health, addiction, and housing challenges directly.
Expanding Transit Access:
Fall River/Wellington, Hubbards/Tantallon, and the Eastern Shore beyond Porters Lake currently lack bus services, leaving residents isolated. I will prioritize introducing public transit to these areas, connecting them to Halifax’s urban core, reducing traffic, and improving access to jobs and services.
These are not the only issues that will be looked at. The land ownership of North Preston/East Preston/Cherrybrook, cell service on the Eastern Shore, the Beacon House Shelter in Lower Sackville, the rat problem in Larry Uteck Area, and preventing the infilling of Dartmouth Cove; these are just a few things I want to look into to help our constituents.
How will we pay for this?
- Unused or Underused Municipal Properties
- Inefficient or Redundant Programs
- Delayed Capital Projects
- Overhead Costs in Bureaucratic Processes
- Unused Grants or Subsidies
Ryan Dodge envisions a Halifax where everyone has a home and access to reliable transportation. Together, we can build a stronger, more inclusive city.
