Episode 9: Driving Change – How MusGo Rider Keeps Nova Scotia Connected

In this episode, Jim and Eric kick off an early morning recording (coffee in hand!) with two inspiring guests who are literally driving change across Nova Scotia — Jesse Guarino and Ronnie Murray from MusGo Rider Co-operative Limited. Jesse and Ronnie share how this community-run transportation service is bridging the gap for residents along the Eastern Shore and Musquodoboit Valley — providing safe, affordable, and eco-friendly rides for those who need them most. From switching to electric vehicles powered by solar energy to ensuring seniors and people with mobility challenges can get to appointments, MusGo Rider is proving that compassion and sustainability can travel the same road. Jim and Eric also reflect on the importance of community-driven solutions and how rural areas often rely on creativity and cooperation to stay connected. Whether you’re passionate about sustainable living, rural advocacy, or just love hearing stories about Nova Scotians helping Nova Scotians, this episode will hit home. 👉 Learn more or book a ride at www.musgorider.ruralrides.ca
