At 7:15 we’ll get an update on the story of the Halifax meal program that was recently shut down because of dishwashing practices. Doug MacDonald, Executive Director of Ward 5 Neighbourhood Centre, will join us to discuss the situation and how they are moving forward.
The Halifax Summer Opera Festival is celebrating its 10th season. At 7:45 we chat with Director Andrew Pelrine about how the festival has helped his career, and what a great opportunity this is to see highly-trained singers perform in favourite operas.
