HALIFAX SUNSHINE LIST



WE BELIEVE IN GOVERNMENT TRANSPARENCY AND THE DEMOCRATIZATION OF DATA



About

The Halifax Regional Municipality discloses the amount of compensation the
municipality pays to any person of $100,000 or more in a fiscal year (April 1 –
March 31). The reports are published in PDF format each year since 2016 on the
Halifax.ca website here. This site does the hard work of parsing through all the
data in the PDF documents and updates an interactive dashboard that's easier for
citizens to consume. The raw data is available here
