Glad I was part of the "It's Not Garbage" co-allition (a co-allition of Halifax environmental groups all joining together to push HRM to push recycling/composting rather than incineration/bigger landfills). But as much as I give credit to the environmentalists for getting it started, it was all the Haligonians that bought into it and make it work that proves the concept for every municipality in Canada.
But you are dead on about the transit system. I lived in Sackville and went to university at St. Mary's. I spent more than 2.5 hours on the bus every day. Taking the 80 every day was absolute hell. Even being an environmentalist, I gave up and got my license.
