This is what having progressive NDP representatives in #Ottawa can do - first a dental plan, then the foundations of pharmacare - and today Federal Anti-Scab Legislation to restore balance and fairness. CUPE National CUPE Ontario OFL
Learning this AM from Roxanne D. Brown about how Black child poverty was cut in half in 2021 via the Child Tax Credit - expanded under the American Rescue Plan. It has expired and right now the Republicans are holding it hostage again.
Pierre Poliviere’s brand of conservatism is farther right than we have seen in Canada in generations. It is more like we see in other countries: Nat Wilson at the OSSTF Communications Union Leadership Academy today. (😍)
You can’t get the resources you need, so you have to go above and beyond every single day: @mirandaknightH to the OSSTF Communications Union Leadership Academy. #onpoli
Exactly this. Many of us understood that and the necessity of caucus being most in the loop on this to confirm this info, after their incredible work. I am sorry to hear that Leah ProudLakota (she/her) found out via the news/ a pundit tweet.
Tom Parkin It appears you released this confidential information while Federal Council was still meeting, despite them outlining comms protocol. I understand we're all eager to know but this seriously undermines trust in the party and is disrespectful to caucus members like Leah ProudLakota (she/her)
Incredible that the Liberal government so quickly folded to Air Canada's request to intervene - HOURS into the CUPE National strike. Not even an attempt to look balanced at all. Zero effort to support workers' demand to be paid for hours worked. #aircanada #cdnpoli
