My views are my own
The articles, comments and opinions on this site are my own. They do not necessarily represent the views of any union, employer, public body, community organization, former workplace or other organization with which I have been associated.
Information, not advice
This site is intended to share news, commentary, public documents and general information. Nothing on this site is legal, financial, medical, employment or other professional advice. Laws, policies and individual circumstances can change. If a decision could affect your rights, job, health, money or legal position, speak with a qualified professional, your union or the responsible government office.
Links to laws, government pages, news reports and other websites are provided as a public reference. A link does not mean I endorse every statement, service or opinion on the other website. I cannot guarantee that an outside page will remain available, current or complete.
What this site collects
This website does not create visitor accounts and does not directly store information entered in the newsletter or contact areas. The short contact form opens your own email program. Nothing is sent until you choose to send the email, and nothing typed into that form is stored by this website.
If you email me, your email provider and my email provider will process the message. I may keep correspondence as reasonably needed to reply, follow up on a correction or story, or maintain a record of our exchange. Please do not send confidential documents, personal health information or sensitive workplace information unless we have first agreed on a safe way to receive it.
Newsletter and Substack
The newsletter signup continues on Substack. Substack receives and processes the email address used to subscribe under its own terms and privacy practices. This website does not store your newsletter email address.
Hosting and technical records
Like most websites, the hosting provider and security systems may automatically create limited technical logs, such as an internet address, browser type, date and time, requested page, and information used to prevent abuse or diagnose a problem. Those records are controlled by the relevant hosting or service provider.
Outside services and links
This site links to Substack, Facebook, LinkedIn, Bluesky, government websites, news organizations and other outside services. Those services may collect information when you visit them. Their own privacy policies and terms apply once you leave this site.
Accuracy and corrections
I make a reasonable effort to use reliable sources and keep information accurate. Errors can happen, and older material may no longer reflect current law or policy. If you see something that should be corrected or updated, please contact me.
