As a shocking move (not) the liberal government side with AirCanada patrons and forced the flight attendants union to go in legal arbitration (right word ?)
If you liked spammed your social with photo of Patricia Hadjy and PM Carney with the #UnpaidWorkWontfly
Love & Rage
At this point, the Liberals have bowed to Trump (and got nothing for it), made largely symbolic genstures to limit immigrantion blocking primary those who are paying to be here while ignoring the workers we effectively enslave with the TFW program, done nothing about housing, and has blocked unions. At this point, might have well voted for Polieve (or, you know, someone sane).
Yeah! It's all the liberals fault!
We get liberals in office and... Why are you not doing enough?
And when they're not in office, why aren't you doing anything?!
The two party system is just sandwiching we, the people, between two rotting pieces of shit soaked bread. No matter who "wins" the election, we, the people, always fucking lose. That's the way of things. The government doesn't represent you and I, they're there to make the lives of businesses easier. So we're going to get roflstomped either way.
I will say that one party seems to stink a whole lot less than the other.
I feel the need to point out that multiparty systems are all over and not all that different, in terms of labour rights.
Nothing will change until WE the workers change it.
Remind me who ordered the Westjet mechanics back to work a few years ago?
You forgot the nightmare surveillance bill they're ramming through.
We still have the CBC, for one thing. Poilievre would be worse.
CBC just got a big reduction in funding. Similar to PP promises
No, he was going to stop funding it entirely. Shutting it down has been his life's quest. He also has an actual affinity for Trump rather than just a strategic interest in not making him angry.
