Labour federation president Lana Payne tweeted last week about the latest labour force figures in the province.
And that’s true. According to Statistics Canada, the province recorded the highest ever participation rate in June: 62%.
Two Conservative supporters retweeted Payne’s comments, apparently because they fit the Conservative mantra that everything is wonderful under the Tories. Conservative policies produce results, which is why the Tories enjoy such huge support in the province.
Anyway, Tories and Dippers cheering the same thing isn’t really as odd a situation as it might seem.
