The CBRM is the second largest municipality in the province and it’s time that it’s treated as such. Today, Interim Leader and Sydney-Membertou MLA Derek Mombourquette will table a bill to establish a CBRM Charter, giving council the authority to make decisions tailored to its unique demographic and economic needs.
“It’s been nearly 30 years since amalgamation, and Cape Bretoners are still waiting to get their fair share,” said Mombourquette. “A CBRM Charter would empower council to make the decisions that will support sustainable growth, drive economic development, and enhance services for residents.”
