I had the pleasure of joining a ribbon cutting today with staff and leadership of Chisholm Services For Children, Lindsay Construction, and my colleagues MP Braedon Clark, Minister of Opportunities and Social Development Susan Corkum-Greek, and Councillor Billy Gillis. These two homes will soon welcome children with the support to help them grow and learn despite their difficult circumstances. The facilities are fantastic, they sit in an amazing community, and the people of Chisholm are second to none. I'm very grateful for the work of all the wonderful people at Chisholm, and it was an honour to officially welcome them to Sackville!

Last Friday, July 17, the 100th Anniversary of the @royalcanadianlegion was honoured with a ceremony on the Queen’s Marque Boardwalk in Halifax. The @royalcanadianlegion was chartered a century ago in recognition of the need for a unified organization to serve and support the community of veterans returning to civilian life after WWI, living in every community from coast to coast to coast. Since then, the Legion has become a pillar of local communities, providing care, support and advocacy for veterans, as well as community service and leadership through volunteerism. Sackville is home to the Calais Branch 162, one of the largest local memberships in Eastern Canada. Their hall is an important community gathering space for many groups (as a Halifax County Local @nsteachers member, I’ve spent many evenings at union meetings under their roof!), and hosts the annual Lake District Recreation Association Volunteer Recognition Banquet, a marquee event in Sackville, as well as the Special Olympics Banquet and the annual Remembrance Day ceremony at the Sackville Cenotaph. The Nova Scotia Nunavut Command is home to 169 branches across our province and Nunavut territory, made up of thousands of members, both veterans and civilian, who give back generously to our community and work to support the broader veterans community. It was a joy to celebrate this truly special occasion with @lisaannelachancemla , @suzyhalifaxneedham and @rodwilsonhalifaxarmdale .

If you are interested in joining the Legion, you can do so at no cost until the end of 2026 online at https://legion.ca/join-us. Veterans and civilians are all welcome to membership!

An amazing woman once walked me through the local history of the first Pride marches in Halifax. They were gritty, tense and scary for the 2SLGTBQIA+ community, but they resisted and persisted and refused to be quiet and unseen any longer. Our amazing siblings within this diverse community continue to shine, lead and make our world more inclusive and equitable, but they continue to face the bigotry and hate that made those first Halifax Pride marches so challenging. Pride looks like fun and laughs- and I’m glad we get to share that joy with the 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ community. I’m always proud to be with you and celebrate you. Still, the first Pride was a riot, and the underlying struggle remains. When I march, it’s with every member of the 2SLGTBQIA+ community for the safe, healthy world you belong in without question. I see you, and I remember all those whose shoulders we stand on to enjoy days like these. 💪🏻❤️ PS: shout out to the Sackville folks who held our swag distribution down! You rock 🤘

Last Saturday night, yet ANOTHER @sackvillebusiness / @acadiarecreationclub collab rocked Acadia Park. Thirty vendors, bouncy castles and kiddo fun, a canteen and live music made the annual Sunset Market a smash for the hundreds who turned out to shop and enjoy a gorgeous summer night at the park. Thanks to our fab collaborators/organizers for a stellar evening highlighting great local businesses and products and providing fun for the whole family! ❤️🌅🏆🔥

Want the province to protect the Sackville Rivers? Have your say: https://forms.cloud.microsoft/pages/responsepage.aspx?id=EzOyjnXORUOlail6JBK02_lL9flKdb1Bkl-hiOHAdBhUMlJGSlhVSzNWOVMwQlQxRVZYNVdaNTdPNy4u&route=shorturl The provincial government has opened consultation on 13 areas being considered for new or expanded nature reserve/wilderness area protection. Among them is the Sackville Rivers Wilderness Area, centered on Feely Lake - an immensely important ecosystem for Acadian forest and local aquatic life.

Two days after Rogers acquired outright control of multibillion dollar Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment, the parent company of the NHL Maple Leafs, the NBA Raptors and the CFL Argonauts (among others), vaunting the move as great for shareholders, it canned local radio stations across Canada, including News 95.7 here in Halifax. 80 radio jobs were lost across Canada, many of those at the Young Street studios of 95.7. The station provided listeners across the Maritimes regular call in opportunities to engage elected representatives at all levels of government. Many remember the stellar work the station did providing live coverage during natural disasters that earned it and its staff industry recognition for journalistic excellence. My heart goes out to the staff whose lives have been suddenly disrupted by the immediate closure today at 3pm. They did excellent work in our community and the loss of their coverage will be felt deeply. I wish them all the very best in finding further opportunity to earn a living in a field they’ve shown such passion for.

175 amazing youth crossed the stage at Sackville High’s graduation ceremony this morning, and it was a joy to join my colleague @councillorbillygillis, senior @hrce_ns leaders and my SHS school staff colleagues to honour these grads on their special day. These youth are already leading & impacting our community- you make Sackville proud. We will always stand behind you- we can’t wait to see the difference each of you makes in the world!

Today is Juneteenth, an occasion marking the end of slavery in the United States in 1865. Though this event didn't occur in Canada, the ongoing impact of slavery and the necessity of knowing its history exist regardless of borders. In our province, country and across the world, today is a day to recognize the achievements of Black communities and to recommit ourselves to the fight against inequality and racism in all their forms.

It’s easy to look to bigger cities and provinces elsewhere in Canada when we think of where history is made, but Davis Day in the greater Sydney area in NS reminds us that every day NSians have left their imprint on the lives we all live today. 101 years ago, William Davis, along with fellow coal miners, confronted Besco leadership to demand the company restore water and electricity to their community, a tactic Besco used to wage war on miners striking to oppose wage cuts of 33%, unsafe working conditions and inhumane hours. Standing the gaff, Davis was murdered by gunfire from Besco hired police and NS provincial police. Others were wounded but lived. Davis became an international symbol of the struggle of workers whose lives, income and working conditions were all playthings of greedy corporations driven by profit and inspired unionized people across Canada and the world to fight for justice in the workplace. As labour critic, it is an honour to celebrate and honour Davis, his family and the community that stood around him in this struggle, and to continue the his fight for justice for working people in NS.

Thanks to Literacy Justice Nova Scotia and the Nova Scotia Teachers Union for joining me yesterday to speak about cuts to supports that help kids succeed in school. At a time when Nova Scotian students are struggling to read and write, the Houston government is cutting school support staff like literacy and math coaches. This is deeply out of touch with what students, parents, and teachers are feeling on the ground. We all need to be working to ensure children can succeed both in school and later in life.

Our friends at @kinsmensackville know how to put on a superb community event that supports the life changing work others do! Yesterday’s Rods to Wheels Car Show featured close to 200 amazing cars, hot rods, race cars and antique vehicles, and proceeds from the event went to support the research and advocacy @mscanadaofficial does. Congratulations to all category winners, and many thanks to all the exhibitors for sharing your incredible rides with Sackville as part of making life with MS more treatable and bringing a cure closer! ❤️
