In this interview recorded at the 2015 UBCM Convention, Chief Administrative Officer Leslie Groulx from the District of Clearwater speaks about the community’s recent road cross-section bylaw that encourages a focus on “not just moving cars back and forth, but moving people: scooters, walkers, bikers, parents pushing strollers.” Partners in the project included the Interior Health Authority, Heart and Stroke Foundation, Opus International and the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure. Groulx views community collaboration as an integral part of healthy living, pointing out that “healthy living is the capacity for our organizations to be able to work together and get along to get a lot more done.”
