My experience with midwives makes me feel gutted that midwifery services are so limited in Nova Scotia.
Nova Scotia needs more midwives. But Nova Scotia also needs midwives in more spaces.

The midwifery team took care of me post partum. Midwives checked my C-section incision. Midwives made sure I was connected to bereavement services. Midwives said my baby's name. Midwives came to my home so I didn't have to sit in waiting rooms with newborns.

The ghoulish & depraved unresponse of Canada’s political class & media to #Israel’s now routine attacks on hospitals in #Gaza,indiscriminate slaughter of #Palestinian civilians-toddlers/teens/grandmothers- massacred & starved on an industrial scale, is a stain that won’t go away.

The fact that any politician, organization, faith leader, journalist or individual feels the need to defend this will haunt me for the rest of my days.
What's even more terrifying is that they think it's the "principled stance" to take - it really sends shivers down your spine.

The Toronto Police who sat back and let a serial killer prey on a community for seven years have some thoughts on “critically important public safety issues.”

The scars of the genocide are visible from the sky. Gaza has been ungrounded and life, as it was, destroyed.

Read beyond the headline. "For people looking for an affordable place to live, it's still a battle. The vacancy rate for apartments priced below $1,300 is well below one per cent and turnover remained at a seven-year low." #halifax #housing #affordablehousing

Workers in Halifax help hold the line for CUPW members ordered back to work by the Liberals.
The community picket and kept the Halifax sorting facility closed for several hours.
Similar actions happened throughout Atlantic Canada. An injury to one is an injury to all!

"In the first year, over 900 entire Palestinian bloodlines in Gaza - that is entire extended families, from little babies to great grandparents - had been exterminated by the Israeli military."
Israel's most depraved lie has been utterly buried by a devastating new report.

File an employment standards complaint.
Uber Eats couriers are employees applying the normal employee status test.
These companies only exist because govt’s permit them to misclassify workers & ignore basic minimum standards.
Time for some basic common sense.

Tim Houston is not averse to fibbing.
@dartjenhen This photo, taken a few hours prior to the event, suggests there was enough space in the room to accommodate the remaining handful of local reporters likely to show up (paywalled).

I worked, and processed vacation banks and payroll under this same union agreement.
You are eligible for 7 weeks vacation after 28 YEARS of uninterrupted employment. You start at 3 weeks.
Don't let a lobbyist convince you to hate regular workers. This is what they want.
Just learned that Canada Post employees get up to 7 weeks of vacation AND 13 personal days.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The missing context in this post is that 7 weeks of vacation only kicks in after 28 years of full-time service and if the employee was hired prior to April 1, 2009. And it's 6 weeks for FTEs with 28 years hired after April 1, 2009. hrreporter.com/focus-areas/la…

✊🎉WE HAVE A DEAL 🎉✊
We are thrilled to announce we have reached a tentative three-year agreement with @NYtimes, pending ratification by our members. There’s so much to share but here are just a few highlights of the deal:

You just know they would be the two most annoying guys in your Polisci 101 tutorial
This take is so unhinged. In the words of Pope Paul VI, "If you want peace, you work for justice."
There will be no peace without justice for Palestinians.
I have many critiques of the Catholic Church, but Pope Francis' solidarity with Palestinians sends an important message.
