Nanaimo Commons: From Walkable Livable Communities— Road Diets, a livability factsheet
http://nanaimocommons.blogspot.com/2015/08/from-walkable-livable-communities-road.html

http://nanaimocommons.blogspot.com/2015/08/from-tyee-in-scramble-for-residential.html
Monday, August 3, 2015. In the scramble for residential land,. Should industrial areas be sacrificed? Like many Vancouver residents, Noah Choy was looking for a home for his family.

Inspired Community Conversation - Mayor Helps
http://www.lisahelpsvictoria.ca/inspired_community_conversation
