Yorkton StoriesClay Serby: Reflections on life in politicsClay Serby was first elected as the New Democrat member of the Saskatchewan Legislature for Yorkton in 1991. While he and Premier Roy Romanow had their differences initially, they became close friends, and Clay subsequently served in cabinet in high-profile portfolios – Health, Education, Highways, Municipal Affairs and Agriculture.

2023-05-1014 minACT Greens PodcastHow should the ACT build the missing middle? Ft. Jo Clay MLAThe Greens want a vibrant city where people can move around easily. We want to preserve our remaining habitat and make sure we have plenty of trees and green spaces near where we live and work. We want a city where everyone has a home. We want a zero-emissions electric city that can deal with the heatwaves and flooding already locked into our rapidly changing climate. But in addition to the climate and extinction crises, Canberra is struggling with homelessness, a housing affordability crisis, a booming population and a growing gap between rich and poor. Most cities...

We are trying to encourage more people to use public transport in the short term due to construction disruption in the city, and in the longer term to address climate change and traffic congestion. But this network has gone backwards. Canberrans want a better bus network. People from all across Canberra in all parts of the community and from all walks of life have spoken to me about the need to improve our bus network. This is...
2023-02-1607 minACT Greens PodcastACT Greens support light rail as an environmentally friendly transport solution for better city living. Ft. Jo Clay MLAThis is an opinion piece published in the Canberra Times on 11 January 2023. Canberrans deserve a well-connected city, where they have a choice to live close to work and amenities, and a city built on principles of sustainability. High-quality, frequent, reliable, and sustainable public transport is central to that vision. Building light rail is about taking long-term decisions that address the serious challenges this city faces in the future - population growth, congestion, climate action and urban sprawl. Canberra's population will grow by around 100,000 people in the next decade. How will they move around...

2022-08-1203 minACT Greens PodcastTalking about e-bikes. Ft. Jo Clay MLAWith all the talk about e-bikes lately it was great to get out and talk to Jake from Canberra Electric Bikes in Phillip about the possibilities of these vehicles in the Canberra transport mix. Between reducing congestion, encouraging exercise, and slashing greenhouse gas emissions e-bikes have the potential to revolutionise the way we get to work and play, and all for the better. For too many Canberrans right now a quality e-bike, suitable for their daily use or for carrying cargo, is out of reach. Hopefully we can find ways to support businesses like Jake’s and ge...

2021-06-2916 minACT Greens PodcastHow to think in circles - an ACT perspective on wasteFt: Jo Clay MLA, I've worked in the recycling industry for over a decade. When I began, the buzz was all about zero waste. This focussed on the linear goal of keeping waste out of landfill. No one much minded where it went so long as it didn't cross a weighbridge. Exciting times! The ACT set the world's first big target in the 1990s, proudly painting No Waste by 2010 on all the garbage trucks (presumably to promote their upcoming redundancy). Jurisdictions around Australia and the world followed with their own zero waste targets. But no...
2021-06-0911 minACT Greens PodcastThe future of the Cooma Bombala rail lineFt: Jo Clay MLA, November this year will mark the centenary of the opening of the train line from Cooma to Bombala. It’s a sad anniversary, to be honest, because trains stopped running beyond Cooma 35 years ago this month. An enormous amount of work and expense went into creating a major piece of transport infrastructure that was only used for 65 years. We need to start asking serious questions about what we want to see happen with this important infrastructure.
