"Pay the full cost for the volunteer firefighters to receive either basic or advanced medical first responder training, whichever the volunteer firefighter chooses" — Better Deal for Nova Scotians, retrieved 2024-11-09

"Create a provincial office of the Fire Commissioner to help coordinate fire services across Nova Scotia, increase links between departments, and ensure that all firefighters are receiving the support they need from the provincial government." — Better Deal for Nova Scotians, retrieved 2024-11-09

"Non-profit and service delivery organizations are not able to appropriately deliver for their communities or plan for the long term when they must apply for provincial funding on an annual basis. Not only do they not know what funding is coming from year to year but, once approved, the delivery of funding is often delayed by as much as 9-10 months into the fiscal year, leaving organizations in the lurch. We will prioritize multi-year funding agreements for successful organizations that have a proven track record of providing core programming for their communities." — Better Deal for Nova Scotians, retrieved 2024-11-09
