Our child care system depends on early educators. ECEs in Sydney Mines deserve the same 40-hour weeks as their peers. We support the strike. Employers: do the right thing. #FairWork #ECE #Unifor @unifor.org

Child Care Now Nova Scotia is proud to stand with Unifor ECEs at Munro Academy as they strike for consistent full-time hours. Fair pay & stable scheduling aren’t perks — they’re basics. #SupportECEs #ChildCareNovaScotia #Solidarity @unifor.org

Today we celebrate the workers who make our communities thrive — from early childhood educators to nurses, retail clerks to transit drivers, and everyone in between. #LabourDay #ChildCareIsLabourRights #ChildCareNowNS #Solidarity

Child care is more than supervision. It’s year-round care, quality programs, and respect for educators. Let’s build the system families deserve. 🔗 Link in bio to take action. #ChildCareNow #ECE #SupervisionIsNotCare

The government’s expansion ignores the youngest children — the ones most in need of licensed, high-quality care. Parents don’t need more patchwork. They need a system. #ChildCareNow #ECE #NovaScotiaFamilies #SupervisionIsNotCare

The government is calling after-school supervision “child care.” Families know the difference. Children need consistency, quality, and care year-round not patchwork programs. Tell the Province Supervision ≠ care. Nova Scotia deserves a real child care system. #SupervisionIsNotCare #ECE

CUPE has a message for Mark Carney, Patty Hajdu and the Liberal government: You have seriously understimated our strength, our determination. You have picked a fight with the wrong union, the wrong workers, and you have definitely picked a fight with the wrong women. #unfairCanada #UnpaidWorkWontFly

Normally I don't post about MVAs, but there's an important one of note right now. Waverly Road south of Waverly & north of Portobello is the site of a serious MVA involving entrapment of at least one vehicle's occupant(s?) & 6 engines have been requested. The car fire has now spread to the forest

PSAC is in solidarity with flight attendants at Air Canada. No one should be forced to work without pay, get locked out by their employer, and then forced back by the government. Every worker has the right to bargain collectively for a fair deal.

Flight attendants should be paid for their entire shift. But today the Liberal government imposed back to work legislation on a mostly female workforce who are literally forced to work for free for a part of every single shift.
