Paul Wozney, MLA Sackville-Cobequid

Father, teacher, coach. Proudly serving Lower Sackville in #nslegislature

Due to staff training and the observance of Remembrance day, our office will be closed on November 9th, 10th and 11th.

We will return on Thursday, November 12th at 9am. Thank you for your patience as our staff undergo training to serve you better, and as our office observes Remembrance Day. 

We'll respond to your emails and voicemails as soon as possible on our return. Please feel free to reach out via email at paulwozney@nsmla.ca or via phone at (902) 864 - 6271.
Nova Scotia Power has informed us that a planned outage will occur on Friday, November 6th from 9am to 3pm.

Winslow Drive, Balsam Circle and Alder crescent will be affected as crews trim backlot vegetation and replace transmission equipment.
My statement on CUPE's tentative agreement with the Houston government:

This morning, parents across Nova Scotia are relieved that their kids can stay in school after the school support worker strike was averted.

The Houston government should have never let it get this far.

School Support workers do important work for our kids every day, and they shouldn't have to be pushed to the brink of a strike just to get fair pay and respect.

We're glad a tentative agreement was reached, and we hope it delivers what these workers deserve.
My statement on the impending CUPE strike:

Today, CUPE school support workers issued a 48-hour strike notice.

This is terrible news for the children who depend on these workers for support, for the parents who will have to scramble for child care if their schools have to close, and for the workers who struggle to pay rent and feed their families.

This could have been avoided.

The Houston government could have listened to workers and worked with them to reach a fair agreement. They could have listened to the families who depend on these workers to make sure their kids get the education and support they deserve.

Children shouldn't have to lose out on education and workers shouldn't have to fight this hard to be treated fairly.

The Houston government needs to get back to the table and reach a fair deal to give families and workers the peace of mind they deserve.
Hey Sackville!
Sharing this so folks are aware of this soon to come opportunity to update some common vaccines heading into cold, flu and RSV season.

The good folks at public health are delivering this clinic on Sunday, November 1, at the Royal Canadian Legion Calais Branch on Sackville Cross Road, 11:30am to 5:30pm. 

Scan the QR code to learn which vaccines you can get with your Provincial Health Card.
Hey Sackville,
Sharing this out to make sure Sackville residents with physical or visual disabilities know about this event to explore opportunities in sport designed specifically for them.

It’s a no cost event, and no previous sport experience is required.

Thanks again to the good folks at @sportnovascotia for working to make sport in our communities accessible and inclusive!
Hey Sackville,
There’s no question sport is something we’re passionate about.

I want to share an opportunity through @sportnovascotia to innovate opportunities for girls and women in sport that enhance access to sport and recreation.

Women and girls in sport experience incredible positive impacts: greater confidence, sense of connection and belonging, healthier bodies and mental health, enhanced career earning, and many more.

The changemakers pitch is a new opportunity to celebrate those impacts and help women and girls tap into them!
 
Whether you’re part of a grassroots group, a local organization or simply someone who sees an opportunity to create a positive change in your community, your ideas are welcome.
 
Here’s how it works:
Submit your idea through https://tinyurl.com/mrw8s5n5

Applications will be reviewed by region.

Six projects per region will be selected and invited to pitch their idea at a Changemakers Pitch & Networking Night (details below).

These groups will each have 10 minutes to present their idea to a panel in a format that works for them—slides, video, photos or other visual media.

Each region will have $3,000 available to help bring these great ideas to life, with selected projects eligible to receive up to $1,000 each. Selections will be made by the panel after the pitches are presented.
 
Submission deadline: Friday, November 13

Changemakers Pitch & Networking Night
Tuesday, December 2 – 6:00-9:00 p.m.

Across Sackville, HRM and NS, I have the privilege to meet so many members of the Muslim community. I often encounter these beautiful folks with their sleeves rolled up to meet the needs of the poor and housing insecure, advocating for peace and justice in schools and community, and pushing for the safety of all faith communities to worship free of discrimination, intimidation or violence at a time anti-Islamophobia, anti-semitism and other forms of religious hatred are rising in NS and across Canada.

It’s humbling when communities open their doors and hearts to others, so I want to thank and commend the folks at @ummahmasjid for hosting such a rich day of welcome and connection with HRM. 

It’s always a joy to be with you. Know that I and my @novascotiandp colleagues stand with you in the face of hate, condemning ongoing acts that cast your community in undeserved and harmfully untrue ways.

You are valued, and we remain your friends and partners in the work of building a more just and inclusive world for all. Can’t wait to see you next year!

Long-term care workers have waited far too long for retroactive wages they’ve already earned. Today, I wrote to the Minister of Seniors and Long-Term Care calling on the Houston government to finally get this money into their pockets.

These dedicated workers deserve fair pay and respect. They’ve waited long enough – it’s time for this government to pay them what they’re owed.
Gracious thanks to the amazing folks at @tplfoundation & @commissionairesns for the invitation to be part of the 2026 Canadian Walk for Veterans.

It’s a true honour to come out to support so many who have served our country and communities so well. It was also moving to learn about the work of @pawsfurthoughtofficial that connects veterans living with PTSD with service dogs- these stories brought to life this year’s theme of “Stronger together- no one heals alone.”

I also valued hearing the story of Lt. Col. Sam Sharp, whose life of courage in service and in political leadership should spur us all to eliminate the stigma surrounding mental health for those engaged in or returning home from active service.

Well done to the organizing committee and volunteers who worked hard to make this day one where veterans feel deservedly honoured, seen and valued. Can’t wait for next year!
The office will be closed this Friday, but we'll return at 9am on Monday the 28th. 

Please leave us a voicemail at (902) 864 - 6271 or send an email to paulwozney@nsmla.ca - we'll get back to you as soon as we can!
