BREAKING: Bill 124, the #onpoli wage cap bill, has been declared unconstitutional.
From ruling: "As a result of the foregoing, I have found the Act to be contrary to section 2(d) of the
Charter, and not justified under s. 1 of the Charter."
The lowest paid education workers took on the Ford Conservatives and won.
Bill 28 will be repealed.
Now it's time for a good deal.

#Ontario Parents, can we make the hashtag #ParentsStandWithCUPE trend so @fordnation can get a sense of how many of us know that the blame rests on the government?
Please R/T.

Shocking. The Premier of Ontario has pre-emptively suspended the right to strike for public sector workers for up to five years. Solidarity with @CUPEOntario in their struggle for better pay and conditions in the face of such draconian legislation https://t.co/KsBsdKX2dv
I spoke with national union leaders this morning about the Ontario government’s inappropriate preemptive use of the notwithstanding clause, which undermines the fundamental rights and freedoms of workers. Our government stands firmly with our country’s workers.
Its packed here outside Dave’s MPP office! Hundreds of CUPE workers and supporters stretching from here all the way up to the zoo, about 1.5 km. It feels like a family reunion seeing so many colleagues I’ve worked with over the years! #onpoli#CUPE#ETFO#OECTA#OSSTF
