Ok @MichaelTGorman, I know you're smarter than this. It is entirely disingenuous to make any connection between this $5 million to a venture capital firm & the impact #COVID19 has had on women in Nova Scotia. #nspoli

Women who lost their jobs were mostly in sectors with low pay. To say gov is addressing that through a venture capital fund is to put all your money on thoroughly debunked trickle-down economics. #nspoli
The women I am talking to have had to give up shifts to take care of children, have taken unpaid leave or left the labour market to try to deal with the demands of parenting through a pandemic. This announcement doesn't help them. #nspoli
What the Libs gave us were some nice words with actions that are completely disconnected from the experience of women in this province. Venture capital is a foreign language when what you need is higher wages, paid sick days & affordable #childcare. #nspoli
Feminism for the 1% isn't really feminist at all. #nspoli
