Parkdale Legal “is challenging caps on damages in the Canadian Human Rights Act, arguing they create a two-tiered adjudicative system by imposing an arbitrary compensation limit for members of equity-seeking groups...”

Today, the @UN Committee on the Rights of the Child released its concluding observations on the state of children's rights in Canada. The findings affirm what we know all too well: that First Nations, Inuit, and Metis children and youth deserve better. #UNCRC

2 more days until #OntarioElection2022 ! Workers need $20 per hour, 10 paid sick days, and equal pay for equal work between full-time, part-time, and temp workers! @ISAC_Ontario @fairwagesnow @WorkersAC

[Migrant Rights Network #StatusForAll @MigrantRightsCA]

“They keep putting band-aids all around for a program that is flawed to begin with" - the only solution is ending closed work permits and granting permanent resident #StatusForAll upon arrival.

[Jim Stanford @JimboStanford]

My take in today's @TorontoStar @StarBusiness on what the combo of sluggish wages and rising inflation means for workers: https://t.co/jIG9x6c03X. Boosting wages to keep pace with inflation does not CAUSE inflation: it merely protects workers while the true problem is fixed. /2

[BS @this_is_walmer]

The ⁦@fordnation⁩ gvt is working for big multinational apps to carve out gig work from labour protections. We can’t let them lower the standard because it hurts us all. Listen to gig workers and vote ford out June 2nd https://t.co/BENuXPSltZ

BIG NEWS: Tomorrow, the Ontario Court of Appeal will release the long awaited decision, Taylor v. Hanley Hospitality Inc., which will answer whether an employee was constructively dismissed if the basis for that claim was that the employee had been placed on the IDEL.
