@CovelloMassimo The reason is that it is managed so poorly. The union gives them the ideas that would work and they refuse to listen to people actually doing the job.

Then they give themselves bonuses for doing a bad job...

[EDLC @EdmLabour]

CUPW has called for a nationwide strike! Join them where you can when you can! Protect door to door delivery, protect your post office!

Show your support in Strathcona County for transit operators trying to get a FAIR first contract.

Respect from the county means giving those with the skills to do the job the work, not just those who are best friends with management...

[EDLC @EdmLabour]

Join HSAA - Union of Health-Care Professionals as they push on to getting a fairly negotiated collective agreement!

The first step to strengthening healthcare is treating workers with respect! There are two locations in Edmonton at the Royal Alexandra & U of A Hospitals!

I am not going to say the EE win because we're putting the "LABOUR" back into the labour day rematch, but they do!

Ever since we started this event 3 years ago they haven't lost. Coincidence? Well probably, but it's still a great night!

#solidarity #labourappreciation

[EDLC @EdmLabour]

Now that the smoke has settled and the grease has been scrubbed off we would like to thank all our volunteers and donors for another AMAZINGLY BBQ!

The BBQ is still on!

We grill come rain, sleet, snow, shine, smoke, or act of God!

Looking forward to seeing you all!

Hold your heads up high and on behalf of the labour movement, thank you for making history!

WE CAN RECLAIM OUR POWER! We just need to use it!

@AmarjeetSohiYEG If it's so good at attracting investment why doesn't the richest man in Alberta invest in it instead of making the taxpayers do it for him?
