Join Hansel Igbavboa (@foodshareto), Charlotte Big Canoe (@FullPlate6) & Chris Locke (@MarbenResto) as they explore precarious work, anti-racism, sustainability, land back & what a just recovery would look like in the restaurant industry. Tuesday at 12pm: instagram.com/foodshareto/
The Omicron wave has resulted in 200,000 Canadians losing their job over the last month. The inadequacy of the Liberals’ new pandemic scheme is clear. Too many people do not qualify for the Canada Worker Lockdown Benefit. Those who qualify are having to wait too long for help.

Just a reminder: Social media is not enough. Pick up a phone. Write a letter. Pop by for a visit. It really does make a difference.

RT if you agree that a single day sponsored by a corporation is not a substitute for the free & equitable #mentalhealth care services that our governments should actually be providing for us all year.

Remember saying this @viraniarif "But our position is clear. We will remain constant in having Canadians' backs for as long as it takes to weather this pandemic, including running deficits to do so." 🤔?

Since most restaurant workers in Ontario just got temporarily laid off, please consider 👇👇
As many Restaurants voluntarily close or reduce hours, many workers are once again out of work or have had shifts cut. Ordering takeout and buying gift cards to your favourite spots can help keep the doors open, but we are asking you to focus on supporting the workers directly.

Grocery gift cards are in high demand for laid off restaurant workers. If you have the means, please donate. The @FullPlate6 is a great non-profit that works hard to ensure your donations go directly to assisting hospitality workers
Little update from us 💜

#BREAKING: @JustinTrudeau @cafreeland @CQualtro expand definition of "lockdown" so more workers can get Canada Worker Lockdown Benefit. But $300/week ($1,200/month) doesn't pay the rent or pay the bills. "Having our backs" means at least $500 per week! #Justice4Workers #CdnPoli

How customers can help restaurant workers: ▪️Be understanding that restaurant workers are afraid ▪️Order takeout so cooks don't get cut from shifts ▪️Donate to worker relief programs such as the @FullPlate6, MTLRWRF, TRWRF ▪️Put pressure on governments for paid sick days / CERB

Today @fordnation and @MonteMcNaughton can live up to their promise of #WorkingForWorkers by voting YES for #PaidSickDays. Bill 8 is up for a vote TODAY! This would ensure 10 permanent paid sick days for all #ontario workers. #DoTheRightThing #justice4Workers #onpoli #Covid

Retweet if you think the Ontario government should vote YES to 10 permanent paid sick days tomorrow because workers shouldn't have to choose between their health & paying the bills.

📢 Take action for #paidsickdays! Next week, MPPs will vote on @PeggySattlerNDP's Stay Home If You Are Sick Act. If passed, it would legislate 10 permanent paid sick days. Tell your MPP we need permanent #paidsickleave now ⬇️ justice4workers.org/bill8 #onlab #Justice4Workers

Ahem restaurant industry associations and CFIB 👇
it’s a bit rich seeing the same business associations raising alarm about a “labour shortage” turning around and trying to deny workers a minimum wage increase which still falls short of a living wage.
