Municipal Elections 2024

All Nova Scotia municipalities will be holding municipal elections on Oct. 19, 2024. The results of these 2024 elections will set the tone of locally based environmental action for the next four years. You can help make climate and environmental justice top election issues and help build your community around sustainability.

For the 2020 municipal elections, the Ecology Action Centre (EAC) put together toolkits to help voters around the province engage candidates on key environmental issues, and sent a survey to all candidates in Halifax Regional Municipality about some of the major environmental and social issues affecting the region.

Voter Toolkits

For the 2024 municipal elections, the EAC has prepared toolkits for voters, including summaries on key environmental issues, questions to ask candidates and what to listen for in their responses.
