If politicians want working people’s votes, they need to respect and enhance our rights. Not with pretty words, but concrete actions. Mr. Poilievre has spent the last twenty years attacking workers - he’s going to be judged on that. #canlab #cdnpoli thestar.com/politics/feder…
The public is on the side of unions. Politicians must take heed – or lose votes.
Poilievre: - Made it harder for workers to organize - Attacked workers’ right to strike - Forced low-wages on workers When someone shows you who they are, believe them.
Mr. Poilievre’s radical anti-worker agenda has no place in Canada.
Solidarity comrades!
The workers at Amica Dundas, a Hamilton-area care home need your solidarity! 🪧 They're fighting for an agreement that reflects the important work they provide to residents and are holding a rally that shows their employer they have the weight of the labour movement behind them…
Committed to public transit, Ritch Whyman delegates to city council while in recovery. Ritch explains to council what really happens when work is contracted out. If city council wants to talk about equity diversity and inclusion and the cost of living then choose model 4.

In 2022, @AndreaHorwath, @CraigCassar and Esther Pauls committed to keeping LRT Operations with HSR on @ATU107's Election Survey. Today they all broke that commitment and trust with ATU and organized labour. Their votes made the difference in contracting out ATU jobs.
It appears that the HDLC adopted boycott of a private operator for Hamilton LRT will be in effect for a decade. Councillors and the Mayor contracted out @ATU107 jobs to an unknown operator. Shameful display of wayward trusteeship over tax dollars! #HSRnotLRT @keeptransitpub
A recent survey found that the majority of Hamiltonians would prefer to see the Hamilton Street Railway (HSR) operate the city’s future light-rail transit system rather than a private contractor. Click on the photo below to read more. chch.com/majority-of-ha…
"Poor service, high fares and a union legal challenge are negatives the Keep Transit Public Coalition theorize will happen should councillors opt to go with a staff analysis recommending the service be put in the hands of a third party." globalnews.ca/news/10424023/…
Our message to politicians: If you claim to support workers, say it with your chest. Show your commitment to workers' rights with policies that prioritize workers & their families. #CdnPoli
Equal Pay Day this year is April 16, 2024. It symbolizes how far into 2024 the average woman must work to earn what the average man earned in 2023. Learn more about the coalition work taking place, find resources, and ways to take action here: equalpaycoalition.org

We cannot gloss over how P3's have failed across the province. It is very important for the public to have this information. The O&M of the Hamilton LRT must must must be kept in the public realm. #KeepTransitPublic #HamOnt
City Council needs to follow through on their promises to support public transit in ALL transit expansion in this city, including the LRT.
This is a major lesson that needs to be applied to the Hamilton LRT. City staff and Metrolinx are in the process of deciding who will operate and maintain the LRT. We have an opportunity to learn from other city's right now.
We're at the Hamilton LRT information session tonight. Someone asked the question: "What have you learned from Kitchener Waterloo, Ottawa and Toronto's LRTs that we can use to improve the Hamilton LRT?" The failure of public-private-partnerships (P3s) was not addressed.🧵
Hamilton LRT Staff mentioned that they will make sure that the system is operational before starting service however failed to identify that in Ottawa the reason the system was not operating properly before service began was BECAUSE of the P3 model & its financial restraints.
P3s - where government agencies and private-sector companies collaborate on a major infrastructure project - are known to prioritize profit-making over public interest, make public decision-making difficult, and rush projects due to financial constraints (as seen in Ottawa).
