鈥淗olly is running to uplift and support the working people of her community, and she鈥檚 a great addition to the team,鈥 said NDP leader Jagmeet Singh. 鈥淪he saw firsthand what happens when the working class unites, when she picketed alongside her Canada Post colleagues. She knows that when we stand together, we can win 鈥 and she is ready to take that fight for working people to Parliament.鈥
Isaac has served as CUPW media representative, first vice-president and shop steward.
鈥淧eople need stability now more than ever, and yet when British Columbians are facing impacts from Trump鈥檚 unstable tariffs 鈥 the Conservatives are continuing their calls to cut the NDP dental care, pharmacare, and national school food programs,鈥 said Isaac.
鈥淭hese cuts will cost families. Workers don鈥檛 need another Conservative in Ottawa fighting for big business 鈥 they need people fighting to put workers first for a change. Only New Democrats have the plan to protect our workers in the face of Trump because only New Democrats are working for you 鈥 not for the ultra-wealthy.鈥
