Time For Choice Alberta

Advocating voluntary union membership and dues in Alberta — fairness, accountability, and genuine workplace choice.

[Time For Choice Alberta @TimeForChoiceAB]

Workers deserve a choice.

Time for Choice is advocating for voluntary union membership because no one should be forced into union representation as a condition of doing their job. If you support worker freedom, add your name at https://t.co/TO9lzAZYOo.⁩

A case before the Alberta Labour Relations Board could set an important precedent: when unions send members' dues to another organization, should they simply say the money wasn't used for non-labour activities, or should they have to prove it?

They say they want the best teachers for students until a qualified teacher wants worker choice. Then suddenly the issue isn’t qualifications. It’s union compliance. If worker choice disqualifies qualified teachers, the system isn’t serving students. It’s serving the union.⁩

[Time For Choice Alberta @TimeForChoiceAB]

If we’re serious about students, we should be serious about where the money goes.⁩

The “free rider” argument treats the union like the main stakeholder. It isn’t. In public services, the real stakeholders are students, patients, and citizens.

If someone is qualified for the job, forced union membership shouldn’t be the price of entry.

You can't blame the government for resources you're not using as intended.

When unions talk about “free riders,” they’re asking the wrong question. The priority in public sector jobs should be serving students, patients, and citizens with the best qualified people, not protecting unions. Public service comes first. Union membership should be a choice.

[Time For Choice Alberta @TimeForChoiceAB]

Wanting voluntary union membership doesn't make someone a "free rider." It's a request for choice.

If we're going to talk about free riders, let's also talk about those who abuse workplace protections while others do the work and taxpayers pay the bill.

They call me a free rider. But let's talk about who's actually riding for free.

She paid mandatory union dues. When she needed help, her union refused to represent her.

Should workers have a choice?

ALRB says “no” more often than you think. Should workers have a choice?

If public sector unions were truly focused on solving problems, they wouldn’t oppose so many solutions. More parental choice, structural reform, accountability, and voluntary union membership all get attacked. So is the goal to solve the problem or protect the power?

[Time For Choice Alberta @TimeForChoiceAB]

ALRB is reviewing whether unions should have to prove where transferred member dues actually go. Have questions about union spending?

If public sector unions want solutions, why do they oppose so many of them? More choice, structural reform, accountability, and changes that reduce union control are often attacked. At some point, Albertans have to ask: is this about solving problems or protecting power?

[Time For Choice Alberta @TimeForChoiceAB]

92% of school authorities reviewed had compliance issues. If accountability reports aren’t reliable, what assurance do taxpayers have?

Why do public sector unions frame everything as a crisis? Because crisis creates leverage. Fear drives attention, outrage drives headlines, and public pressure fuels bargaining power, political influence, and support for the union agenda.

[Time For Choice Alberta @TimeForChoiceAB]

If a worker is qualified for a job, they should be free to do that job without being forced into union representation.

Forced compliance isn’t compliance. It’s coercion.

If you’re worried about elites benefiting from public money, start with the education bureaucracy.
Take a look at your school division’s Superintendent’s salary at the end of this video.

Public sector unions know that if they repeat “crisis” often enough, people stop asking questions. Real problems exist, but turning every pressure point into proof the system is collapsing isn’t neutral advocacy. It’s a political strategy.
