Public service workers have shown tremendous goodwill and respect by including cleaning up after themselves, donating to local food banks, and upholding their communities. They don't deserve to be fined for a honk and a hot dog.

Just heard @MonaFortier latest news bite again with the tired line “we can’t write a blank cheque.” No one is asking for a blank cheque. We are asking for cost of living increases. We have been without a contract for 2.5 years. #Solidarity@psac_afpc@utesei
With workers from @CanRevAgency on
@psac_afpc@utesei Bargaining Team. Proud to be part of this fight with this team. Giant crowd on Hill today for noontime rally. Time the employer dealt with our telework & wage demands. Otherwise: One day longer, one day stronger. #psacstrike
Talks have stalled. This gov't says it cares about restoring services for Canadians, but they seem content to shrug it off and prolong this strike.
2 years & 1 historic strike later & TB is sending emails instead of putting forward an fair offer.

Over 100,000 workers are on strike. What will it take for the Prime Minister to take this situation seriously? // Plus de 100 000 fonctionnaires sont en grève. Qu’est-ce que ça va prendre pour que le premier ministre prenne la situation au sérieux?
"If the prime minister can turn his back on these striking members, he will turn his back on every single worker in this country," says PSAC national president Chris Aylward as he reiterates call for PM Trudeau to get involved in public sector union talks to end strike.

155,000 federal workers are on strike.
The largest in history.
They're fighting for fair wages and a decent living.
Justin Trudeau — he's on a flight to New York.
The 85 richest people on Earth now have as much wealth as the poorest 3.4 billion, so please just give them another massive tax cut so they can create more jobs already.
This viral stuff is fiction.
Ottawa police say there have been 0 resignations.
The Canadian military hasn't made any dramatic statements.
The 50%-of-Ottawa-cops-quit claim came from a Facebook stream last night by convoy man Pat King, who has a history of ridiculous claims.
