Imagine thousands of workers uniting to fight against corporate greed and the politicians who fail us... Well, it's happening! Today, Canada's unions launch our new campaign, Workers Together: For a Better Deal.

This is about more than one vote.

It's about Canada's commitment to international solidarity, human rights, and an independent foreign policy.

Canada has opposed the U.S. embargo on Cuba for decades. But its recent abstention at the UN raises serious concerns about whether we're bowing to pressure from Trump.
Canada must stand firm.
Tell the government to vote to end the embargo.

If employers know the government can end a strike, why bargain fairly?

Canada's unions brought solutions to Parliament to address concerns about Bill C-39 and protect collective bargaining.

Why would employers bargain fairly if they know the govt can step in and end a strike? That’s the danger of C-39, and exactly why Bea testified before a HoC committee to raise concerns about the proposed legislation. We must protect collective bargaining and the right to strike.

See you tomorrow ✊

[Unifor @UniforTheUnion]

Workers will protect our right to strike. On Thursday October 15, we are coming together for a National Day of Action.
Show up and make sure that every MP hears the same message: Protect the Right to Strike!

Le droit de grève est non négociable. Nous voulons des conventions collectives solides, des relations de travail stables et des chaînes d’approvisionnement fiables. On ne peut pas assurer la stabilité en affaiblissant le pouvoir de négociation. https://t.co/KQo3eCiwO1

[Canadian Labour @CanadianLabour]

The right to strike is non-negotiable. We all want strong collective agreements, stable labour relations and reliable supply chains. Workers are Team Canada 🇨🇦 But you can’t build stability by weakening workers’ bargaining power. https://t.co/vusCanJs0t

[Canadian Labour @CanadianLabour]

En cette Journée mondiale pour le travail décent, soyons clairs : on ne bâtit pas une économie plus forte et plus résiliente en affaiblissant les droits des travailleurs. Le travail décent, c’est aussi des droits solides, y compris le droit de grève. https://t.co/KAv95q1o0y

[Canadian Labour @CanadianLabour]

Today marks the World Day for Decent Work. Canada’s unions have been clear: we won't build a stronger, more resilient economy by weakening workers’ rights. Decent work means decent rights, and that includes the right to strike. https://t.co/aFP2Rd8znt

[Canadian Labour @CanadianLabour]

CEOs covered by Bill C-39 make up to 199 times the average compensation in their industries.

Workers deserve a fair share and the power to fight for it.

Tell your MP: repeal Section 107. Remove the new strike restrictions. 👇

Le 4 octobre, le jour des Sœurs par l’esprit, nous nous rassemblons en souvenir et pour commémorer les femmes, filles et personnes bispirituelles autochtones portées disparues ou assassinées. La famille et les proches ont attendu assez longtemps que justice soit faite.

Funny how our right to strike is a problem, but multimillion-dollar CEO pay isn’t.
Bill C-39 would weaken workers’ bargaining power and tip the scales further in favour of employers.
The right to strike is non-negotiable.
Tell your MP today.

[NUPGE @NUPGE]

The federal government is trying to push through changes to Section 107 of the Labour Code to restrict our right to strike. Workers are united in opposition. You can help by sending this letter to MPs: https://t.co/r8q0zmhHxF
