Warehouse Workers YVR

A space for workers in warehouse / logistics to connect, educate, and organize. This is a virtual space - to support workers during Covid-19.

No one should be left behind in #COVID19 response. We all need to support migrant and workers priorities right now who are being excluded. Read / Sign: https://t.co/1Iy7paEDg6.?source=twitter&

The John A. Macdonald statue in Montreal has fallen! It was taken down minutes ago by anonymous protesters at the end of the #DefundThePolice demo. https://t.co/GbKuLjiKt3

[Migrant Workers Centre @MWC_BC]

During COVID, Canada has failed migrant workers. Systemic change is urgently needed to protect workers' rights! https://t.co/MrUjgXWUV8 #StatusNow @UFCW_1518 @vancouverdlc @UniteHere40 @J4JL2 @bcgeu @HospEmpUnion @CQualtro @HarryBainsSN @KahlonRav @WorkersYvr @EndingViolence

@RichmondRCMP This is an oxymoron.

The only silver lining of the pandemic is that Diner en Blanc won’t happen in Vancouver this year.

On August 1, 1834 the Slavery Abolition Act came into effect.

This act officially freed slaves in Canada.

Let us celebrate Emancipation Day by committing to end systemic racism in all its forms.

None of us have justice until all of us have justice.

#EmancipationDay

Thank you for everything Chin Banerjee.

[prabhjot @prabhablyy]

Really don’t know how to react to Chin’s passing away. I feel a deep sense of loss and emptiness for the south Asian and larger community in Vancouver. RIP Chin. Thank you for everything.

If or when this happens, which logistics giants have the capital, tech, political sway to make it happen?

[Deuce Drone @DeuceDrones]

"Unmanned delivery may be more appealing these days... as online grocery adoption soars and customers demand the least amount of human contact possible." Thank you, @GroceryDive, for featuring our partnerships with @BWWings and @RousesMarkets!

We are facing difficult times

The Liberals announced supports for banks & businesses but no direct help for people who are worried about paying their bills

People can't wait, they need help now

We are ready to support measures that get money to people as quickly as possible

[Robyn Maynard @policingblack]

Shame on @JohnTory -the absolute moral cowardice here. Refusal to #DefundThePolice just weeks ago, now looking at #defunding services for homeless ppl, transit, childcare? prioritizing repression over communities has always been shameful, even moreso during a pandemic.

[Justice for Janitors Canada @J4JL2]

We are so pleased and grateful to welcome our newest members, janitors working at Uptown Mall. Our entire union of 20,000 members is behind our new sisters and brothers as they fight for their first union contract.

The GTA has become an even more concentrated hub for logistics. Logistics workers have so much collective power.

[Purolator 🇨🇦 @PurolatorInc]

We’re excited to announce we have broken ground on the construction of our new national Super Hub located in the GTA. It will be the most advanced sortation hub of its kind in Canada and transform our network, increasing our capacity, speed and flexibility. #DeliveringTheFuture

[Warehouse Workers YVR @WorkersYvr]

More undoing of the @bcliberals system of workers compensation which was built to protect the boss and their wallets.

Provinces across Canada are opening up again -- but most janitors have been working throughout. #InvisibleToEssential

Schools never closed.
In-person school closed.
Teachers never — never — stopped working.
