A refreshing reminder that strong unions don't just improve wages and working conditions, they build a stronger economy for everyone. It's time for the government to put workers at the centre of its economic agenda.   Great op-ed in the @theglobeandmail.com: www.theglobeandmail.com/business/com...

Opinion: Canada needs stronger unions, not more labour bashing from governments

Anti-union discourse and policies have increased when workers need strong unions most

You can't "tough it out" through extreme heat or wildfire smoke. As climate risks grow, workplace protections must grow with them. Keeping workers safe means treating climate change as a health and safety issue. Read @clcpresident.bsky.social's latest op-ed: www.ohscanada.com/opinions/our...
