.@opl_bpo asked @ottawacity to ↑ the security budget to $3m to address the rise in the rate/severity of violent incidents. Employers have a duty to provide workers with a safe workplace, but security guards are only a part of the solution to this problem. tinyurl.com/ys6rz6k2

Join us in calling on councillors and the Mayor to tell the @TownofWhitby to get back to the table, drop the concessions, and reach a fair deal to end this strike. cupe.ca/SupportWhitbyM… @CUPEOntario

"We're seeing at as very unpredictable. We're seeing it in a manner that's not going to support a work-life balance." @CUPELocal53 What the employer calls "flexibility" leads to little more than chaos for workers! #onpoli #Whitby #Durham @TownofWhitby globalnews.ca/video/10030325…

Join us for a solidarity rally outside Bradford West Gwillimbury Council’s next meeting on Tuesday, September 5th at 6 PM. 125 Simcoe Road in Bradford West Gwillimbury. Let’s show the Mayor and Council that we are united and we won’t back down! #BWGPLstrike #Solidarity

Mayor @James_Leduc & @TownofBWG Council will do anything to avoid giving workers a fair raise. Instead of providing fair wages, they’re spending yet more time and money on a lengthy legal fight. Library workers deserve $1.35, and so much more! bradfordtoday.ca/local-news/arb…

Congrats to @UniforTheUnion members at Metro on a deal that includes a ta retroactive hike of $1.50 an hour, and another 50 cents an hour. Makes @TownofBWG look really petty by forcing a six-week #library #strike over $1.35. #canlab @OFLabour @torontolabour

That's it friends - no crossing picket lines - remember that as working people, all we have to fight for ourselves is our #solidarity - this billion dollar operation can get no more of our money until they treat workers fairly! @WeSayEnoughON @OFLabour @CUPEOntario twitter.com/stephross_mac/…

UPDATE: @TownofBWG Council has agreed to move their meeting on Tuesday, August 1st so they will NOT cross the picket line. This a huge win! 🎉 Meeting has been moved to Bradford & District Community Centre at 125 Simcoe Road. See you there at 6 PM! #BWGPLstrike #solidarity
