“Today is International Workers' Day. The government keeps stopping workers from striking to help big bosses. I want the government to pass this bill to stop the labour minister from ending strikes.”
“Madam Speaker, today is International Workers’ Day. It is a day when we honour workers’ struggles for economic justice and human rights. Yet, the Liberals repeatedly use section 107 of the Canada Labour Code to trample over the right to strike. They cave to CEOs and their corporate buddies and undermine fair and collective bargaining. Will the government finally respect workers, defend their rights and pass Bill C-247 to repeal section 107 of the Canada Labour Code?”
