OTTAWA , ON, Aug. 28,
2024 /CNW/ - As families continue to struggle under
the weight of the ongoing affordability crisis, workers across the
country are coming together to challenge corporate greed and demand
that politicians prioritize people over profits. This Labour Day,
Canada's unions are launching
"Workers Together: For a Better Deal", to empower workers and
elevate their voices.
"Workers are the backbone of our economy, yet many are
struggling in an increasingly unaffordable Canada. The federal Conservative agenda
threatens to exacerbate these challenges," said Bea Bruske, CLC President. "Our Workers Together
campaign is a call to tackle corporate greed and prioritize
programs that make life more affordable and build strong
communities. We need politicians who will take concrete actions to
support working families. Workers contribute significantly to our
economy, and they deserve their fair share."
CLC Officers will be travelling nationwide to engage with
workers and community leaders at Labour Day events, and to help
provide a platform for workers to share their stories and advocate
for change.
