Proud and honoured to join Claudia Chender (@ChenderClaudia) today at Dr. Rod Wilson’s campaign office opening in Halifax Armdale today! It was great to meet so many of @Rod_Alive’s fabulous Halifax Armdale volunteers. Stay tuned for an announcement of our Halifax Chebucto campaign office opening event, but we are excited to report that we have now moved into our new office (the former “Finsbury Market” on Chebucto) and are getting it set up and ready this weekend. In the meantime, if you are interested and able to join our amazing team of volunteers in Halifax Chebucto, please fill out the form below: Volunteer.NSNDP.ca/HCHE/sign… #NSpoli #NSNDP #cdnpoli #NSvotes #NSelxn #NSelection

So excited to be running in Halifax Chebucto with @ChenderClaudia and the @NSNDP! I’ve been out knocking on doors in Halifax Chebucto along with my friend @GaryBurrill (who isn’t re-offering this election, and whose big shoes I hope to fill) this week. KristaGallagher.nsndp.ca

“Seniors’ poverty in Nova Scotia is the worst of any province in Canada, and over a quarter of those who are homeless for the first time are over the age of 60. The government cannot continue to evade this,” said @GaryBurrill, spokesperson for Seniors. ➡️ ow.ly/Rztt50R2A1l

The Houston government scrapped the Coastal Protection Act. Instead they've reduced coastal protection to handing out bookmarks. @GaryBurrill is speaking to this now: youtube.com/watch?v=c8_Y-_Re…

Fixed term leases are no longer a loophole. Landlords are being incentivized to use them so they can raise rents. The Houston government must fix this. @GaryBurrill #nspoli

Houston is refusing to protect Nova Scotia's coasts. They put the Coastal Protection Act off for years, and now they've killed it. This is badly needed legislation to protect communities and our coasts. #nspoli

It's Sexual Health Week and we are renewing our call for free Birth Control for Nova Scotians! With costs rising, being able to pay for contraception is a barrier for more and more people. Read more: nsndp.ca/nova-scotia-should-… #nspoli

A shelter is not a home. An eviction notice on a tent is not an affordable housing plan. A no-cap rent cap is not what a decent government would provide.

Provincial government offices in Halifax, Hants, Colchester, and Cumberland counties will remain closed today, Monday, February 5th, due to weather conditions and storm clean-up.

Congrats to the workers at Pete's who held out on their strike for weeks and have a deal in place! Union power, worker solidarity, respect @seiulocal2can instagram.com/p/C1vEHhCgveC/

🤯🤯🤯 If Houston can't see that home heating is essential, it's clear he has no idea what everyday Nova Scotians are going through right now. #nspoli

NDP MLAs marked Remembrance Day today at ceremonies in their communities.

The NDP is pushing for legislation to prevent Nova Scotia landlords from introducing no-pet policies as a way to circumvent the provincial rent cap. saltwire.com/halifax/news/nd…

Pet evictions are a growing trend. Landlords make a new rule banning pets, families are forced to move, and the landlord can raise the rent on the unit. This isn't right. @GaryBurrill asked the government what they will do to stop it. youtu.be/6YfATVW1Pxs
