I promised a video primer on The Law of Picketing in Canada in anticipation of picket lines going up at @YorkUniversity

Can picketers block roads? What can't they do? Can employers ask courts to stop or restrict picketing?

Here you go! Hope its helpful

#TruthAndReconciliation is important for all of us - we can move on to a better place - but first we must reckon with the truth - forge reconciliation- celebrate Indigenous Strength & Excellence - this is how we build a collective future @CUPEOntario

On this day in 1963, @cupenat was formed through the merger of the National Union of Public Employees and the National Union of Public Service Employees. The Founding Convention was held in Winnipeg with Stan Little serving as 1st president. #canlab #cdnpoli

[Labour History Girl @labour_girl]

On this day in 1894, Labour Day was officially celebrated across Canada for the first time. Workers in industrialized cities had already been celebrating for years while in other areas the first Labour Day had little fanfare. #canlab #cdnpoli

A vehicle caught fire below an Air Canada aircraft in the process of deplaning at the Montreal airport. 🔥

Flight attendants were able to evacuate the passengers without injury.... even though they aren’t even being paid on the ground! #UnpaidWorkWontFly

Did you know flight attendants in Canada work for an average of 35 hours for free every month?

Even though they’re on the job in uniform & taking responsibility for the safety & well-being of passengers. Think that’s messed up? So do we.

Indigenous communities are some of the most harshly impacted by environmental racism.
It affects many aspects of work for Indigenous peoples.
It means many Indigenous communities have lost or have never had reliable access to clean water.

[CUPE National @cupenat]

As part of our ongoing efforts to foster #reconciliation in our workplaces & communities, we should all participate in #NationalIndigenousPeoplesDay by sharing in events on the day. And we can do more!

Tomorrow, take time to listen, learn and act.

CUPE National Indigenous Council and CUPE 1500 member Nathalie Claveau is from the small Innu community of Mashteuiatsh, in Lac-Saint-Jean.

Watch and listen to her story about what we all must do to protect water and make it available to all.

This International Women’s Day, we’re celebrating women’s union activism.

CUPE women are at the forefront of the fight for justice. They’re building solidarity to fight for stronger public services, pay equity & fair wages, and better working conditions.

There is NO room for privatization in health care.

Privatization equals:
- a two-tier health care system where the rich get special access, undermining universal access to care
- more workers leaving public hospitals
- worse outcomes with less accountability

@RWDSU @vancouverdlc All the protections but full vacation in the year you retire!! Even if you retire on January 2nd!!

[Mark Hancock @MarkHancockCUPE]

The crisis in our hospitals was caused by right-wing premiers like Doug Ford, who are now saying the only solution is selling off our health care to their wealthy buddies & corporate donors. We must defend public health care in Ontario and across Canada. https://t.co/cZH4Z6eN01
