Check out this article by Justin Brake outlining community concerns about the austerity report. Featuring Social Justice Co-op NL co-chair Kerri Claire Our province, for a very long time, has been run by these corporate elites, says Neil. And right now they’re wearing the NL Liberal flag, and they’ve hand-picked their friends to write this report and really represent their best interests as white settlers who want to get rich off this land, put profit over people, and ...pollute it so that they can [] enjoy a standard of living that is unattainable to so many peopleand that’s really based on taking land from Indigenous people. And Anti-Racism Coalition co-chair Sobia Shaikh "Shaikh warns that an austerity approach to the province’s economic crisis will pit people against each other in ways that I don’t think we’re aware of yet. She says austerity breeds more distrust and mistrust and fear amongst people, leading to an increase in racism." https://theindependent.ca//greene-report-must-be-resisted/
