SEIU Local 2 members at Democracy Café have been laid off right before the holidays following the sudden announcement that the café will be shut down. The community, friends, & family have started a GoFundMe campaign to support them following the devastating news. 1/2

Solidarity to our @djnontario comrades!

[SEIU Local 2 @seiulocal2can]

Good news from #HamOnt, we’ve unionized at the @djnontario!

It’s important to our staff that we protect one another, sustain our work, and ensure that care and justice aren’t just metaphors, but practices that shape how we show up for this labour of love. 💜🫰🏾💛 @hamiltonlabour

❗️ATTN: all bike share workers: Have you spotted these stickers around your city yet? 👀💪🏽

"The residential care sector is in “crisis,” say a group of Hamilton researchers, despite the facilities being one of few housing options for the thousands of people who require assistance in their daily lives."

🚨Attention All Workers: Stand Up to Unfair Canada!🚨

Where: Rally at MP Rechie Valdez’s Office – 8B Maiden Lane, Mississauga
When: Tuesday, August 19 from 12 PM

@AirCanada and the @liberal_party government have teamed up to trample workers’ rights. By using Section 107 of the Canada Labour Code, they attacked the rights of flight attendants and all workers to bargain freely and fairly.

Join Air Canada Component of @cupenat workers and allies from across the country to demand:

- Air Canada back to the table
- Fair pay for flight attendants
- Protection of free collective bargaining

[CUPE Ontario @CUPEOntario]

No surprises here - Canadians know what's fair. Not to mention the flight attendants of CUPE's Air Canada Component are waging an **incredibly** effective bargaining campaign against an unreasonable employer @AirCanada #UnpaidWorkWontFly

[CUPE Ontario @CUPEOntario]

The OFL proudly endorses the @hamiltonlabour's petition demanding a formal apology from the @NHL for its punitive actions against the 1924–25 Hamilton Tigers, a team of workers punished for taking collective action.
