“It is an honour to receive the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee Medal”

January 26, 2023

I received the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee medal at the ceremony at Province House on January 23, 2023, and it was truly remarkable for me. It was even more special knowing that I was among 25 people to receive this honourable award presented by Gary Burrill, MLA and former leader of the NS NDP. Every moment felt surreal, and I am truly grateful for such a distinguished honour for my work in the Trade Union Movement”.
