Government help during the pandemic did more than help people get through a tough time. It also helped lift people out of poverty. But unfortunately, things have gone back to the way they were for some. And it’s gotten worse for others. The high price of food, energy and rising inflation is leaving people behind. That’s why several groups decided to hold community conversations and roundtable to discuss the cost of living crisis in Nova Scotia. Dorothy Halliday, Director of Community Cares Youth Outreach in Sydney Mines was involved. As was Leila Sarangi, National Director of Campaign 2000.
