Sad to hear the passing of former International USW President Leo Gerard. Leo was a relentless fighter for workers rights and an inspirational leader. @USW1005 Executive with Brother Leo at his retirement celebration. Rest in Power. @uswdistrict6 @steelworkers – at Hamilton, Ontario

Front-line workers, hailed as heroes during the pandemic, are leading a resurgence in union militancy, demanding what they’ve long been denied: fair wages, decent work, and a greater share of the profits they help to generate. thestar.com/opinion/contribu… #canlab

On this #LabourDay2024 lets dedicate our resources to make sure @PierrePoilievre does not get elected in the next federal election. We can't forget his vision for what he calls “workers freedom”, legislation that he first talked about in 2012. #LeopardsDontChangeTheirSpots

If @PierrePoilievre quit politics tomorrow, he would be eligible for a reduced pension at age 55 of approximately $75,000 per year for life paid for by us, the taxpayers. Let that #SinkIn when he calls out other politicians' pensions, he is a #WierdHypocrite

Shame on Trudeau and @liberal_party on ordering binding arbitration for railway workers. @TeamstersCanada one day longer one day stronger

"For us in the labor movement, it’s real simple. Kamala Harris is one of us. She’s a fighter for the working class. And Donald Trump is a SCAB. That’s not my opinion. That’s a fact." Get the t-shirt: UAWDefeatsTrump.com #StandUpUAW

Replying to @PierrePoilievre
@PierrePoilievre can't be trusted with workers' rights. Don't buy into his bullshit; he does not like Unions and workers to have rights. His track record proves it. #NeverVoteConservative

On June 5 2019, Ford introduced one of most anti-worker bills in history. 4.5 years later he has to eat crow. When will people realize he is not for workers and has never been? This is your #LastTermDoug

If the confidence-and-supply agreement between the federal @liberal_party and @NDP delivers #electoralreform then it may have been worth it. #Timeforchange with our electoral system is the only thing that will bring back democracy in Canada.

Yesterday’s #EnoughIsEnough campaign in Niagara Falls was well-represented by unions across Ontario. “Hey, Hey, Ho Ho Doug Ford Has Got To Go” @uswdistrict6 @USW1005

This is what the privatization of our healthcare system looks like. This is the same rich corporation that makes excess profits on skyrocketing food prices. Workers need immediate relief from growing grocery bills and universal #pharmacare. buff.ly/3uehGjA

More #LipService from the cons. How do you know when a conservative is being less than truthful? Answer, they are talking.
Some advice, if you find yourself in a hole, stop digging. Ontarians deserve answers on these sole-sourced ServiceOntario contracts with American-owned big-box stores. The Conservatives need to come clean about why they’re using taxpayer dollars to help Staples & Walmart. 1/2
