Sounds a lot like the #LongServiceAward that the @StephenMcNeil govt. stripped away with #Bill148.
Teachers will receive a 1% bump after 15 years of service, a 2% bump after 20 years and a 3% bump after 25 years. #nblab #nslab #NSTU #nspoli #CharterRights tj.news/new-brunswick/n-b-te…

"I don't know many Nova Scotians that grow up thinking, 'Boy, I hope I make minimum wage when I grow up.' That's not the way people think, they want real jobs," Premier @TimHoustonNS, Nov. 2021.

CUPE: The tentative must first be ratified by the Lead Table Local within 10 days. We're aiming to complete this within 72 hours.
If ratified by Local 1082 (St. Vincent's Guest House in Halifax), details of the tentative will then be presented & voted on by all locals. #nslab

Anybody surprised that the @nsgov's primary concern would be protecting @WalmartCanada?
The Walmart location was closed for four months after the fatality. The new ovens are not walk-ins.

Workers of the world, unite!
We need International unity: American, Canadian, & Mexican workers against the corporations.
Immigrant workers are our class brothers and sisters.
Immigrant & 1st-generation workers built the UAW in the 1930s. We need that unity today!

Manitoba, which has very close to the same size population and provincial budget as Nova Scotia, is legislating #NurseToPatient ratios.
#nspoli #nspc #nslab #FixHealthcare @NS_Labour @NS_nurses @JanetHazey
Legislating nurse-to-patient ratios.
If you want safer care, you need enough nurses on every shift. It’s that simple. And this spring, legislation is coming to set nurse-to-patient ratios in key areas of our health care system.
We’ve already hired 3,500 more health care workers, including 1,200 more nurses, so we can make this change and deliver better care for Manitobans.

– 72% hold permanent jobs
– 41% work full-time

2) And guess which province @trevortombe ranked second last at 59th? Nova Scotia, with PEI right behind it at 58th.
Atlantic Canada - the poor country cousins of Confederation!
