Overcrowded schools. No clear plan. The NDP’s @PaulWozney is right — Nova Scotians deserve an open, evidence-based process for building new schools. Families shouldn’t have to wait while gov’t plays catch-up. #nspoli #Education #NSNDP #PublicEducation

No one should have to choose between their health and their paycheque. Nova Scotia workers deserve 10 paid sick days now. It’s good for workers, families, and public health.
Workers before profits.

Canada Post doesn’t have a worker problem, it has a management problem.
Executives take home over $317 million a year while frontline postal workers are blamed for losses. We stand with CUPW members fighting to protect this 158-year old public service. #CUPW #novascotia #workers

Canada Post isn’t broken because of workers; it’s broken because of runaway management. Instead of holding executives accountable, Ottawa looks the other way while service is cut and jobs are lost. #CUPW #canlab @cupw @CanadianLabour #workers #novascotia

✈️ Air Canada flight attendants work 30–35 hours a month for free. Boarding, safety checks, delays, and deplaning. Some earn as little as $1,900/month before taxes. No worker in Canada should work without pay.

Did you know that Canada Post’s CEO earns more than the Prime Minister, despite the company losing $850 million last year, cutting delivery routes, and halting pension contributions? This issue stems from mismanagement, not workers or unions.
