From ERs to factory floors, workers power Canada's economy. But too many of us are struggling. It's time our politicians take real action on housing, jobs, & public services. share.canadianlabour.ca/s/HeADaH2s

Heavy-handed use of labour code has painted federal government into a corner, unions say | CBC News The federal government’s repeated use of the Canada Labour Code to force picketing employees back to work has undermined its ability to end strikes while setting it up for a fight with Canada’s labour...

The lightning-fast deal reached after CUPE flight attendants courageously defied the back-to-work order proves the point: Air Canada had zero incentive to negotiate seriously while counting on federal intervention to steamroll workers' rights.

Last day of school! BC teachers showed up every day despite underfunding & rising pressures. Now it’s time to rest. In September, we organize, mobilize & fight for the schools our students deserve. ✊ #bced #bctf #UnionStrong #ProtectPublicEducation

'Our future depends on it': Teachers, parents and students call for more education funding Teachers, parents and students from across the province gathered outside the B.C. Legislature Monday calling for increased funding to the education budget.

Thank you #bced parents for this important advocacy at the Legislature. Our students, your children, deserve better than the funding levels coming out of #bcpoli that are forcing districts to make cuts. cheknews.ca/our-future-d...

"Even though that funding is going up, it’s not filling all of the needs ... to make sure students get the services they require"

YouTube video by British Columbia Teachers' Federation It's time for BC to hire more school counsellors so we can help more kids.

Everyone has a right to come home at the end of the day.

We will continue to work toward that goal in partnership with workers, the labour movement and employers.
