64% of people in PSAC’s survey say federal public services are already strained and backlogged. Cutting more workers means longer wait times and fewer supports when people need them most.

This past week there was a photo from Trump's gala of a barely clad woman frolicking in a giant champagne glass.
She looked like a teen.
It made me think of Jane Doe-another young woman who attempted to shine a light on the darkness in Trumpland.

With Carney’s upcoming budget, we could see 52 of 88 vital departments and agencies disappear, according to @policyalternatives.ca’s analysis. This would mean:
🔴Fewer workers and slower services
🔴Weaker protections
🔴Longer waits for the help families need

As the only leadership candidate with a seat, CBC asked me this week where I stand on the budget.
Mark Carney knows where I stand.
If he wants NDP support, he can’t keep the cuts he’s threatening to jobs and the services Canadians rely on.

Today’s Halloween… but the real horror is Carney’s cuts to public services. After everything we’ve been through since COVID-19, our public services are stretched to the limit. Cutting support for families, veterans, and seniors now isn’t “fiscal responsibility” — it’s reckless.

On World Day for Decent Work, we reaffirm our demands to the Carney government – stop cuts to the services people rely on. This government has a duty to set the bar for decent work for all workers in Canada. That means fair wages, job security, and the right to free collective bargaining.
📢 Decent work is a right, not a privilege!
On World Day for Decent Work, we rise for dignity, fair wages, security, and a voice at work.
💪 Workers and unions worldwide are standing up to corporate greed, defending democracy, and demanding justice.
