YOUR INPUT MATTERS!

Teachers and education workers are being asked to do more with less, while professional judgment and expertise are too often ignored.

That’s why @CTFFCE needs to hear from you.

If you work in a public school from pre-kindergarten to Grade 12, take a few minutes to complete the Parachute Survey before it closes in only TWO DAYS on May 21.

The results will help strengthen advocacy for better working and learning conditions across public education.

Personal Support Workers deserve respect, not a system that denies them basic rights.

Today, PSWs, allies, and union members rallied outside Doug Ford’s office to demand justice, accountability, and fair treatment for the workers who care for our communities every single day.

PSWs deserve due process, representation, and the same protections afforded to other regulated health professionals. We will continue to fight back against a system that leaves workers without a voice.

Respect PSWs. Fix HSCPOA. ✊🏽

During Health and Safety week, remember: unions fight for safe work.

Unionized workers are more likely to report unsafe work or safety violations by their employer.

Thanks to the @LeftEasttoWest podcast for hosting CLC VP Siobhán to talk about workers, our economy, and what’s next for the labour movement. 

We’re getting ready to bring that energy to Winnipeg for our convention.
