It's not only unfair, it should straight up be illegal

[Joel Harden @JoelDHardenNDP]

I struggle to understand the long-term strategy of major Canadian firms who reap billions in sales, get massive public COVID-19 grants, lavish executives with bonuses, and pay so little that workers use food banks and sleep in cars.

Airline that took BILLIONS of tax dollars for bailouts, somehow cannot pay employees for hours worked.

[#1 haterade drinker 🌾🇵🇸 @tyelland]

if i was air canada i would simply agree to pay my workers for all the hours they work. then i wouldn’t have to strand my passengers :)

The federal government’s message today to big federal employers: don’t worry about having to bargain. We got you.

My message to those employers and the federal government: we will always and I mean always defend the right to strike and to fair and free collective bargaining. 1/

[Syntheticus Humanitus @TheChaosWeeber]

I really don’t get it. Polls showed Canadians overwhelmingly sided with the flight attendants. What gain did carney get from going this? What the fuck

[Polling Canada @CanadianPolling]

The problem with Air Canada trying to screw its workers over is that the airline doesn't exactly have good will with the Canadian public to begin with

[Breanna Needham @Breanna_Needham]

What @AirCanada needs to realize is that almost no one who is facing a cancelled vacation or return flight this month (myself included) is going to blame the flight attendants for wanting to be paid fairly.

[Sam Hersh @SamHersh01]

This is from @MarkJCarney's platform.

The Liberal Party loves to constantly tout the Charter as their crowing achievement but consistently breaches one of the most fundamental rights workers have.

They respect the Charter when it's convenient for their corporate buddies.

[Marit Stiles @MaritStiles]

Tomorrow, flight attendants are uniting across Canada.

They’re fighting to end unpaid work — while the Liberal government rewards Air Canada’s refusal to negotiate fairly by taking away workers’ Charter rights.

Stand with them at an action near you👇

[Kavita Algu @KavitaAlguMD]

Our family has 3 @AirCanada flights in the next few days.

The workers have our full solidarity.

Pay your workers full and fair wages.

[Kim Siever @kim_siever]

This government interfered with postal workers striking.

Twice.

This government interfered with dockworkers striking.

Twice.

This government interfered with striking with railworkers.

No wonder companies keep asking the Liberals to interfere in strikes.

[Rachel Gilmore @atRachelGilmore]

Conservative Carney wasting no time busting a union.

Never let anyone tell you they give a shit about the little guy or wealth equality if they systematically attack and dismantle one of the only means of supporting both!

[Back On This App and It’s Still Hell @wickdchiq]

Why don’t @MarkJCarney and @PattyHajdu just tell us to go back in the kitchen where we don’t have to commute to do the unpaid labour they expect from women. What misogynistic action from the @liberal_party whose base is disproportionately female

[Andrea Dekeseredy @AndieWinnipeg]

Say what you want about the federal NDP, but without question they would have supported the Air Canada workers.

Which appears to also be the viewpoint of most Canadians.

🚨 URGENT CALL TO ALL WORKERS: DEFEND AIR CANADA CUPE COMPONENT WORKERS’ RIGHT TO STRIKE 🚨

Where: Toronto Pearson International Airport, Terminal 1
When: 9:00 AM, Tomorrow - August 17

The federal government is moving to trample the Charter-protected right to strike forcing binding arbitration and back-to-work orders that strip workers of free and fair collective bargaining.
This is unconstitutional government overreach. If they get away with it here, this sets a dangerous precedent.

✊🏾Join the labour movement at Toronto Pearson. Solidarity with Air Canada flight attendants. Defend the right to strike.

#cdnpoli #onpoli @waltonmom

[MichaelHurleyCUPE @HurleyOCHUCUPE]

Minister Hajdu rejects the notion that siding with Air Canada and stripping these women of their right to strike makes her government anti-union. She acts in the proud tradition of Mackenzie King, servant of the railroad barons. These workers will fight and they will win.

[David Coletto 🇨🇦 @DavidColetto]

The Carney government may have single handedly started a period of intense labour strife with today’s decision.

My research clearly shows that workers are incredibly insecure.

The cost of living, housing costs, precarious work, macroeconomic instability and AI have created a toxic cocktail.

And unions will want to demonstrate their value in protecting their members.

He was elected to protect people. Secure them and provide more certainty. Today, could send the opposite signal.

[CUPE National @cupenat]

In an almost unthinkable display of conflict-of-interest, a former Air Canada legal counsel, Maryse Tremblay, will rule on whether to end job action by striking Air Canada flight attendants at the Canada Industrial Relations Board.

[Sam Hersh @SamHersh01]

Remember that it was @AirCanada that walked away from the bargaining table NOT flight attendants.

Air Canada locked out their workers - they left them with no choice other than to strike.

If your flight is cancelled, blame Air Canada.
