#c51 means work stoppages and rallies that are peaceful but deemed unlawful could be seen as “national security threats”. #canlab

[Canadian Labour @CanadianLabour]

We stand with many Canadians who say #c51 is just posturing ahead of an election not protecting public safety. @CBA_News

80% of the jobs created in the last 5 years have been temp or part time. No wonder student debt is so high.
