Abstract
This study analyses a significant planning undertaking in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada to illustrate the pervasive nature of neoliberalism in planning theory and practice. It shows how smart growth and creative city narratives embody third-wave or policy-led neoliberalism and describes how the planning practitioner facilitates the expansion neoliberal narratives.
