Unifor Power. Boycott the Tower. Worst business decision of all time: locking out hospitality workers on the busiest weekend of the year and busiest tourist time for the CN Tower. πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈπŸ€¦β€β™€οΈπŸ€¦β€β™€οΈ

There is only one word for this: extortion. And there’s only one answer: push backβ€”hard. Canada must use every bit of leverage we have. Workers are counting on our govt to defend their jobs. Concessions won’t stop a bully, but collective strength will. ctvnews.ca/politics/artic…

It's a #PrimeDay indeed! Big win as the B.C. Labour Board certifies Unifor at Amazon’s Delta facility after ruling the company interfered in the union drive. β€œWorkers slayed the giant,” said Lana Payne πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦. Time to bargain a first contract. #canlab unifor.org/news/all-news/…

Trump’s latest 35% tariff threat is a bully tacticβ€”jack up tariffs to make a lower one seem β€œreasonable.” We can’t fall for it. This is economic extortion, not negotiation. Canada must push back hard & defend good jobs. #cdnpoli #canlab unifor.org/news/all-news/…

Diane has worked 40 years in the laundry at Best Western Windsorβ€”doing finger-numbing work for just $18/hr. Now she’s on strike with her work family, demanding a living wage from billionaire developer Shmuel Farhi. Watch her powerful message. #canlab

We have to call this what it isβ€”extortion. Trump responds only to pressure, and it’s time Canada uses every tool we’ve got. If we can’t get a deal with no tariffs, we need to hit back hard with retaliation, export controls, and real leverage says Lana Payne πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦. #tariffs #cdnpoli

β€œGive us the respect we give you. We work hard at our jobs for you to keep your hotel going & it wouldn’t kill you to pay us enough to survive. We’re not asking for much,” says Joy, a 15-year employee earning $18/hr, to billionaire Best Western Hotels & Resorts Plus Waterfront owner Shmuel Farhi.

From the start, I have said we can’t give in to extortion and threats. That we must fight back. We have leverage and cards to play. Workers are depending on our govts to stand up for them. To protect their jobs and industries. Defending them is how we defend our country.

#Unifor’s Lana Payne πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ warns of the danger of normalizing a base tariff with the U.S. - accepting Trump’s unjust and illegal tariffs on any level will cost Canadian jobs and damage our economy. #cdnpoli #canlab

We cannot accept US tariffs as a β€œnew normal”. These times are anything but normal. Today’s workers, and workers for generations to come, are counting on this federal government to fight back and defend the working people whose labour drives Canada’s economy. No backing down.
