We talked about the principles of fairness, equity and self-reliance when we took Campaign for Fairness to Alberta and Ontario. And we are demonstrating our conviction by applying these principles here at home. We are leading by example. Our government is asking nothing more of Ottawa than we are prepared to do for our citizens and our communities. Strengthening and growing the economy is a priority.
Economic growth is the social tide that lifts all boats.
One step leads to another. And together they elevate Nova Scotia. Yesterday, we began a new chapter in our province's history. We shared with Nova Scotians the kind of future we envision, the principles we stand for, and the priorities we will invest in. As a government, it is our duty to demonstrate the leadership needed today to bring about real economic gains and meaningful social progress tomorrow.
