N.S. advocacy groups, opposition calling for more workers’ rights protections - Halifax

Opposition parties in Nova Scotia and some advocacy organizations are calling for the province to do more to protect workers' rights and improve labour conditions.

Advocates demand better protections for vulnerable workers in N.S.

"Fifty percent of workers in Nova Scotia earn less than a living wage, and 30% of Nova Scotians earn less than $20 an hour," Nova Scotia Federation of Labour president Melissa Marsman said.
