Amazon is 'union busting': Canadian Labour Congress president Canadian Labour Congress president Bea Bruske says Amazon's decision to leave Quebec is 'union busting' and 'corporate greed.'

Amazon shutting down operations in QC is a gross act of corporate union-busting and an attack on workers fighting for fair pay and safety.

It is clear: We need stronger labour laws to stop corporate bullying.

Spoke with the Prime Minister today about the importance of standing united against Trumpโ€™s tariff threats. Workers want Canada to show strength and defend jobs.

Itโ€™s unbelievable how many ways people have twisted themselves to not call this Nazi salute what it is.

I had a chance to tag along with Bea Bruske to meetings with all parties yesterday as she advocated on lowering cost of living, strengthening healthcare and protecting jobs.

But Trumpโ€™s tariffs were top of mind.

300 workers from 50 unions from every sector of our economy will meet with 150 members of parliament from every party.

You want workersโ€™ votes, you better listen to workers on what they want.

Last year we pushed for a sustainable jobs act, pharmacare and antiscab legislation. And guess what? We won on all those issues.

This year weโ€™ll be calling for investments to support workers, to make life more affordable and to strengthen healthcare. โœŠ๐Ÿผ
