Focus of meeting: Nova Scotia jobs and the economy

HALIFAX, NS – Progressive Conservative leader Jamie Baillie will host town hall meeting in New Minas that focuses on job creation and building the economy.   
 
The public meeting will be held at the New Minas Civic Centre at 7:30pm, Tuesday, August 14.
 
“The NDP have governed over the loss of 2,000 full-time jobs from right here in the Annapolis Valley,” said Baillie. “Families have been hit hard by the bad policies of the NDP government. We want to hear from Valley residents about what needs to change to make a good life for their family again.”
 
Members of the PC Caucus will also meet and visit with local job creators, healthcare professionals and day cares.  
 
Baillie says a PC government will encourage job creation by getting the fundamentals right: balancing the budget, lowering taxes, eliminating unnecessary regulation and adopting an energy plan that integrates economic and environmental needs.
