The labour movement has called for anti-scab legislation for decades, and now we have a chance to become reality. We need to pass this legislation swiftly so we can deliver this long-needed protection to workers.

The PCs want to force liquor workers into an unfair deal that wouldn't keep up with the cost of living. In fact, Stefanson's offer is even below the raise she's giving to herself.

WLC is proud to stand with @MGEUnion workers on the picket line. One day longer one day stronger ✊

[Winnipeg and District Labour Council @WLC1894]
