🚨 NOVA SCOTIANS CAN'T AFFORD ANOTHER POWER BILL HIKE. IT'S TIME TO TAKE A STAND! 🚨The cost of electricity keeps climbing, and families are being left to deal with the consequences.
NS Power is raising rates by 3.9% in January 2027. Late fees and interest on overdue bills have restarted. Power shutoffs are coming in the spring for people behind on their bills. And now NS Power wants Nova Scotians to pay even MORE to cover the cost of shutting down coal power plants!
Meanwhile, where is the provincial government's plan to help people afford their power bills?
WE'RE DONE WAITING FOR RELIEF!
ACORN members are taking our fight directly to the provincial government, and we need as many people as possible standing with us.
We're calling for a Home Energy Affordability Program that would provide:
50% rebates on energy bills for low-income families.
Debt forgiveness to help people catch up.
Emergency support for people struggling to pay their bills.
Energy-efficiency upgrades for low-income households and tenants.
This rally is an opportunity to show the government that Nova Scotians are fed up with rising costs and want real solutions. We shouldn't have to keep choosing between heat, food, and other essentials.
📅 Tuesday, November 24th at 1PM
📍 Outside the Department of Energy, 1690 Hollis Street, Halifax
Come stand with ACORN members and neighbours from across the province.
IT'S TIME FOR THE PROVINCE TO STEP UP. WE DESERVE AFFORDABLE ENERGY!
