ST. JOHN S, NL, May 6, 2021 /CNW/ - The slash-and-burn reset recommendations in the Greene Report would hurt Newfoundland and Labrador workers, cut vital social services and impede a post-pandemic economic recovery if implemented. Greene s Big Reset is a Big Failure, lacking imagination or a vision for the future that includes good jobs and strong public services, said Unifor Regional Director Linda MacNeil. A framework that starts with balancing the budget and ends with privatization is not a reset, it s a step backwards.
The report by the Premier s Economic Recovery Team (PERT), headed by former Canada Post CEO Moya Greene, was mandated to review government expenditures, fiscal capacity, delivery of services and areas of economic growth.
