Happy Paramedic Services Week. Thank you to all paramedics, as emergency medical services (EMS) personnel, who bring tremendous courage and dedication, skill, commitment, care and compassion to their jobs as first responders. #canlab#cdnpoli

Make no mistake these paramedics did not make this decision lightly. They are inherently principled. They know Bill 124 is just wrong. For them and many other health care heroes. #unifor
Halifax has saved its Covid-19 RAGE for irresponsible dudes partying during the lockdown
Things Halifax has chosen not rage about:
-lack of paid sick days
-homelessness/NGOs paying for hotels
- lack of childcare support for kids whose schools are shut down

. @GovCanHealth now posts rapid test usage data on its website.
As of April 13, 2021, the provinces have used only 4% of
the 25 million rapid tests shipped to them.
You can track the information here: https://t.co/154yRqWqfv

Aviation Workers cannot work from home and work closely with the public daily. We keep people safe, and we need protection from COVID-19 to continue to. Time to prioritize us in the vaccine roll out. @IainTRankin @StrangRobert @nsgov@nshealth#rapidtesting#frontlineworkers
@CBCAlerts@CBCNews@IainTRankin why is NS not doing rapid testing for arriving passengers at HIAA? Locking people down with no ability to visit family or doing business outside of NS is WRONG
Members consistently face multiple exposures to #COVID19 and at least five Unifor members in the aviation sector a week test positive for the virus. It’s time to prioritize these workers in the vaccine roll-out https://t.co/9QCSXb500r via @UniforTheUnion#unifor#canlab
Airport workers do not have the luxury to work from home. Workers in this sector interact with people from all over the world every single day. It’s time to prioritize these workers in the vaccine roll-out https://t.co/SiVE52mWKt via @UniforTheUnion#unifor#canlab#onpoli 😷
Essential workers who cannot stay home, need vaccination access and #PaidSickDays to protect themselves, their families and their communities from #COVID19. It's time to prioritize workers https://t.co/x2XpozpySc via

Ottawa has agreed to support Air Canada in the form of loans. There will also be an announcement on a pool of funds around passenger refunds that would apply to all airline passengers. A press conference revealing the details is expected tonight. #cdnpoli
@AmitAryaMD So many #LTC workers are on autopilot. They are traumatized and suffering PTSD.
They work under emergency orders that override their collective agreements.
I fear that as the economy opens up we will lose even more PSWs. And there is NO plan for retention.
