Big news: A U.S. court has struck down a large swath of Trump's tariffs on countries, including Canada. But sectoral tariffs — automotive, steel, etc. — remain in place. by Alexander Panetta cbc.ca/news/world/tru…

🧵1/ Donald Trump’s plan to double tariffs is a direct attack on Canadian workers—and a reckless move that will send shockwaves through our economy. These tariffs could shut Canadian steel & aluminum out of the U.S. market entirely, and put thousands of good, union jobs at risk.

Unions don’t just fight for wages – we fight for justice. When ICE arrested David Huerta, they didn’t just attack one leader. They attacked the movement. This is solidarity. This is our moment. #FreeDavidHuerta #FreeThemAll latimes.com/california/sto…

We’re disappointed the Minister is forcing a vote on Canada Post’s final offer. The best deals happen at the bargaining table — not with government interference.

“Running the government like a business” is just another way of saying that we should privatize government services afforded to everyone. You know who would love that? Wall Street and big corporations. Don’t buy into the myth.

#Unifor’s Lana Payne 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦 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 “new 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.

"Government officials only allowed media to observe Carney’s opening speech, hustling reporters out of the Gatineau venue despite a desire from First Nations leadership to allow the public to hear from chiefs as well."
