Justice for Janitors

Hey All,
There is a rally in support of the janitors at Founders Square tomorrow (April 12) at noon and I’m planning to head down to show my support. Details here. It’s a busy world we are living in and this janitors issue is complicated and easy to miss if someone doesn’t bring it to your attention like El Jones did for me a couple weeks ago. In talking with folks at the picket it became apparent how this Founders Square incident is the result of a much larger issue. Thought I’d share a few thoughts about this as it’s been on my mind and I’d love to see some changes happen in Nova Scotia so things like this don’t continue to happen.

Joel & Bill Plaskett special shout-out

By The Guardian

Fans of Canadian rock music have likely heard Joel Plaskett.

From hits like “Nowhere With You” to “Through & Through & Through”, his career has spanned more than 20 years, with 17 studio releases albums and multiple Juno Awards.

He shows no signs of slowing down with the release of his new album, “Solidarity”, which is a collaboration with one of his earliest musical influences, his father, Bill.

P.E.I. fans will get a chance to enjoy the music of both Plasketts when they perform in concert on Oct.
