Halifax needs to put its workers first.
Soon, Halifax will hold a local election to choose a new city council. It’s time city hall put local workers first.
We’re calling on the Halifax Regional Municipality to:
- Create a Living Wage Ordinance, so all HRM employees and contractors get paid fair wages for their hard work.
- Keep jobs in-house. Snow removal and other services should be done by Halifax municipal workers, not outsourced to for-profit companies.
- End expensive public-private partnerships, like the Halifax Convention Centre. P3 contracts cost taxpayers more and hurt our community.
We can get a city hall that puts workers first, but we need to raise our voices and vote for it.
