The People's Recovery report was released earlier this week and has been getting lots of attention so far. It's so refreshing to be part of a broad coalition of groups calling for positive and real change!
In response to the PERT's "Big Reset," the People's Recovery NL—a grassroots coalition—has published a report outlining an alternative approach to tackling the province's fiscal crisis. Justin Brake provides a breakdown here: https://t.co/IksTo2mql4
The Austerians are rising again. And once again in Canada leading the way. Shrinking like its 2010 all over again - this time in the Maritimes. Me, on the radio, up there, fighting zombies. It never ever ends: https://t.co/HlPL9C7Tbz
“If the government is serious about consultations and approaching options for recovery with an open mind, they should listen to this report and be open to community-based perspectives.”
— Jessica McCormick, People’s Recovery co-facilitator

Delighted to see the @PplsRecoveryNL discussion paper highlighting the vital importance of provincial leadership in the provision of better active transportation and transit infrastructure https://t.co/hlzB4N611C
@Larry_Short@parismarx@readpassage@KrissyHolmes@ramraajh Overarching point: the People’s Recovery was inspired by a vision of a future in NL that is equitable, inclusive, and environmentally sustainability. The crises noted around our table related primarily to poverty, inequality, and exclusion.
OTG will have coverage of this report today between 4:10pm and 5:00pmNT. We'll speak with Professor Williams and get reaction from some of the same voices we heard from when the PERT report was released.
Our collective recovery can and should include a feminist & GBA+ analysis from the beginning, harm reduction, living wages, and investment in social infrastructure. As members of the @PplsRecoveryNL, we reject austerity and the single-narrative we have been dealt for recovery.
Today we're releasing a report outlining options for an equitable, people & community-centred economic recovery. The report was developed over 5 months with input from more than 60 academics, community organizers, activists & organizations #NLPoli https://t.co/yFxgaXfW0v
I’m pretty excited for the release of the @PplsRecoveryNL final report tomorrow. A lot of great people have put their time into something pretty important.
Next step: public consultations on the PERT report.
Not so fast, say these folks.
Did you catch how @GovNL and Moya Greene have already set the parameters of the debate? #nlpoli
