Host: <\/span>Melissa Bowman<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

On this week's show I start with the discussion Wilmot council is once again having regarding Wilmot Mayor Les Armstrong\u2019s Facebook Post that suggested that the Black Lives Matter movement is a hoax.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I\u2019ll share details about that meeting and Council\u2019s reaction to the Integrity Commissioner's report based on his actions. Kitchener is one step closer to having a downtown cycling grid and I\u2019ll outline some highlights from that committee discussion.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Lastly, I\u2019ll dive into the details of Waterloo council\u2019s recent decisions on equity, diversity, and anti-racism initiatives.<\/span><\/p>\n
