The Nova Scotia Advocate reports on politics and current events as they affect Nova Scotia’s poor, its workers, and its citizens.  

The Nova Scotia Advocate is just me. My name is Robert DeVet.  I was a reporter for the Halifax Media Co-op for a little over three years. Here is a link to my earlier work at the Co-op. 

I write about anything that catches my interest, or rather, that gets me mad or delights me.  

Expect posts about the struggles of people on social assistance, the working poor, people with developmental disabilities, and people getting screwed by their bosses or government bureaucrats with austerity agendas. Oh, and public libraries. I love libraries.
