Proud to join the Chinese, Filipino, Tamil, Somali & Eritrean workers' networks to show solidarity for @OPSEU LCBO workers. Doug Ford's privatization scheme is an insult to these hardworking Ontarians.

We must keep public $$$ in public hands. Full stop.

[Toronto Centre NDP @tcndp]

Yesterday, @kristynwongtam and members of our Riding Association joined @OPSEU and allies from @CWN_TOlabour, Tamil Workers Network and @torontolabour.

Solidarity with LCBO workers! We’ll be with you until you get the contract you deserve. ✊✊✊

[Dr. Jill Andrew, PhD (she/her) @JILLSLASTWORD]

Proud to stand w @OPSEU

Labour solidarity in Toronto Centre! Thank you to the Chinese, Tamil, Filipino, Somali & Eritrean workers' networks for joining LCBO workers at the Yonge & Wellesley picket line. 70% of the 9000 LCBO workers are classified as casual despite working 7, 9 and 12 years for this publicly owned corporation. This is no way to treat hard working Ontarians. All workers deserve a government that will have their backs — not stab their backs the way Doug Ford is doing. #ONpoli

Proudly standing in solidarity with @OPSEU and our labour partners! We fight not just for the 9,000 affected workers but for the $2.5 billion in revenues they generate, funding vital public services like healthcare and education in #Ontario! #ONpoli Special thanks to @OPSEU President JP Hornick, @JPHornick the Tamil, Chinese, Eritrean, Filipino, and Somali Workers Networks, and colleagues @kristynwongtam and @JILLSLASTWORD for their support. Workers united will never be defeated! #TOPoli #Solidarity

[Chinese Workers Network @CWN_TOlabour]

[Faisal Hassan @FaisalAHassan]

Let's stand with LCBO workers & keep this $2.5B revenue stream public! #ONpoli #YSW #YorkSouthWeston @OPSEU They deserve fair wages, benefits, & respect for their hard work. #LCBOworkersMatter #PublicServicesOverProfit #FairnessForLCBOworkers

[Felipe Pareja @FAPareja]

Say NO to billionaire profits. Join the fight for the future of the @LCBO!

The LCBO (& its *WORKERS*) put $2.5B of revenue into Ont’s public services *every yr*.

❌ Privatization & enriching the wealthy

✅ GROWING, EXPANDING, & SUPPORTING the LCBO as a public service.

OFL President Laura Walton reaffirms that we will not leave any worker behind. Ford needs to assure workers that he won’t pursue another baseless appeal and ensure adequate sector-wide funding for those workers that have yet to negotiate a Bill 124 remedy.
