Eddie Carvery is a social activist from Africville, Nova Scotia. The small, mainly black community in Halifax was destroyed by the city in the 1960s as an "urban renewal" project, after years of neglect and poor services. From Wikipedia
Remaining on site despite the Heritage Trust’s July 13 eviction deadline, the 79-year-old activist has seen a $25 parking ticket for his unlicensed trailer invalidated by the municipality.
