The New Year is upon us and 2016 is almost three weeks in. With a new year, comes new initiatives and this includes the budget.

Jesse Helmer is a City Councillor for Ward 4 and he says there are many business cases in 2016, including increasing the urban forest, rapid transit projects and increase funding for homelessness prevention.
