Aux milliers d’agents de bord de WestJet qui sont en grève contre le travail non rémunéré : le NPD est à vos côtés.

Votre lutte est celui de tous les travailleurs et travailleuses qui en ont assez d’être maltraités par les grandes entreprises — des gens qui travaillent plus dur que jamais et qui peinent encore à s’en sortir, tandis qu’une poignée de PDG ne cessent de s’enrichir. Des millions de Canadiens et Canadiennes vous soutiendront aujourd’hui.

Le droit de grève n’est pas un obstacle, c’est l’un des piliers de notre démocratie. C’est pourquoi le gouvernement Libéral ne doit pas faire usage de l’article 107 pour forcer les agents de bord à reprendre le travail, comme il l’a fait l’année dernière avec les travailleur·euses d’Air Canada. Les Canadiens n’oublieront pas de sitôt si le Premier ministre intervient cette fois-ci en faveur de WestJet.

Cette grève porte sur l’équité fondamentale, la dignité et le respect. Personne ne devrait être obligé de travailler gratuitement.

Today’s decision is the result of a massive effort from the Ontario NDP, organizers on the ground, and the people of Toronto who said: No Jets TO.

It was collective power that made this issue impossible for the Carney government to ignore.

When we organize, we win!

NEW: The Ontario Progressive Conservative caucus was given the green light to book hotel rooms in downtown Toronto at the taxpayer’s expense whenever night sittings were scheduled, Global News has learned, despite Premier Doug Ford’s repeated public assertion that the expenses were “unacceptable.”

"I know the premier was here in Thunder Bay, did not meet with a single First Nation chief. So really was a photo op. It was quite embarrassing, honestly." MPP @LiseVaugeois returns to her riding to give @NEWSTALK1010 a lay of the land as wildfires burn in Ontario's north.

[MPP Jamie West @jamiewestndp]

Every MPP is required to have a yearly 1-to-1, in-person meeting with the Integrity Commissioner where we are reminded about the rules and encouraged to contact them at anytime.

There’s nothing subtle about, “Can we use taxpayer dollars to pay my dad’s company?”

[Kate Dupuis @DrKateTO]

Staff in the Premier's Office expensed $197,145.80 to Ontario taxpayers last year.

Strangely, it looks like Doug Ford himself is associated with, or submitted, $7,103.93 in expenses?

This party with our taxpayer money has to stop.

[Kate Dupuis @DrKateTO]

Since @fordnation became Premier, MPP expenses have increased by 31%.

Have our school budgets increased by 31%?
Have hospital budgets increased by 31%?
Have ODSP and OW rates increased by 31%?
Has minimum wage increased by 31%?

[Marit Stiles @MaritStiles]

MPP Hardeep Grewal billed taxpayers $27,000 for downtown Toronto hotels. Now we've learned he was also spending your tax dollars on ads in a newspaper owned by his own father.

Your money. His family's business.

Today I asked the Integrity Commissioner to investigate. If Grewal's family is profiting from public dollars, the people deserve to know.

Doug Ford sets the tone for his caucus. His MPPs fund their lifestyles with your money and keep his confidence. What else can you expect from a Premier who tried to buy himself a private jet on your dime?

News that AM 570 will fall silent after carrying 30 seasons of @OHLRangers gives me pause to reflect on what radio voices have meant to the #OHL — none more legendary than the late Don Cameron.

My thoughts are with Mike Farwell and others affected this week.

Die FIFA ist einfach nur noch korrupt. Was zum Teufel?

Folarin Balogun kassiert ne Rote Karte, die Folge: 1 Spiel Sperre. Er verpasst also (eigentlich) das Achtelfinale der USA. Jetzt hat die FIFA aber anscheinend die Sperre auf Bewährung ausgesetzt, damit er doch spielen kann.

Also dieses ganze Turnier kann ich langsam nicht mehr ernst nehmen. Ist das deren Ernst?
