Unifor members from coast to coast enthusiastically welcome today’s Supreme Court decision to reject legislation that sought to limit collective bargaining and legal job action. The Court has ruled that Saskatchewan Premier Brad Wall’s attempt to strip public sector workers of fundamental rights under “essential services” legislation is unconstitutional.
“BC’s workers have a strong ally in Irene Lanzinger. She will be a terrific leader for our movement to create and protect good jobs and make work safer,” said Joie Warnock, Unifor’s Western Director.
Violence against women isn’t a series of isolated incidents, it’s a systemic issue that is rooted in sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia and other forms of discrimination and oppression. It’s all connected, and we can’t end violence against women without turning our attention to these issues.
Written byUnifor Western Director Joie Warnock in response to a news release issued on July 28th
In a news release issued on July 28, trade minister Ed Fast and BC Finance Minister Mike DeJong struggled to put a positive spin on an increasingly ugly situation at Cascade Aerospace.
Unifor Western Director Joie Warnock wrote a column for the July 15 edition of the Province newspaper explaining what is behind the strike by Unifor Local 114 workers at Cascade Aerospace in Abbotsford, BC.
If you don’t go to Abbotsford often, you may not have noticed 24-hour-a-day picket lines at Cascade Aerospace.
