Tonight’s episode of CUPE Talk In The Atlantic takes a different turn than planned.

Our Education Special will air soon, but due to unexpected technical issues, we shifted gears to bring you an important and timely conversation that deserves your full attention.

In the first half of the show, New Brunswick NDP President Kristine Wickner joins Nicholas London for an in‑depth one‑on‑one discussion.

They explore current labour challenges, political dynamics in the province, and the ongoing fight for fairness and respect for public-sector workers across Atlantic Canada.

Following that conversation, we bring you a special Breaking News segment recorded Saturday.

Nova Scotia host Matthew MacDonald sits down with Nicholas London to discuss the major development many anticipated: the ruling that Bill 148 was illegal.

This segment breaks down what the decision means, how we got here, and what comes next for workers, unions, and collective bargaining rights in the region.

Thank you for joining us and supporting worker‑centered media in Atlantic Canada.
