This is disgusting. Poilivere’s anti-union, anti-worker record speaks for itself!
Has anyone checked in with the union leaders in the States who backed Trump to see how that went?
@cbcnews Air Canada could have averted those expenses by simply negotiating in good faith and paying flight attendants for all work. The company should take the passengers compensation out of the undeserved salaries and bonuses of the executives who, by unethically extracting unpaid labour, necessitated the strike.

Workers there began organizing last December to join Unifor, Canada’s largest private-sector union. Forty percent signed union cards over the summer.

Who else remembers that time that #Walmart shut down a store in #Jonquiere, QC after its staff unionized, then painted the whole thing grey and left it there as a warning to others?

On the second National Day of Remembrance of the Québec City Mosque Attack and Action against Islamophobia, and the sixth anniversary of the horrific attack, Canada’s unions remember the victims and survivors, and continue to call for increased government action to address rising hate. “This day serves as an important reminder of the lethal impacts of Islamophobia and the need for government and all Canadians to commit to taking action against hate for a safer and more inclusive Canada for all,” said Bea Bruske, President of the Canadian Labour Congress (CLC).
