Imagine if your supermarket used all the personal data it can get on you to figure out the most they could charge you for every item on your grocery list.

Think of the price for that carton of eggs jumping up because the store's technology realizes it's you shopping, and not your neighbour. #BCLab

When private investors tell you they'll run airports "better," they mean better for themselves, not you. It's a huge payday for corporations, but a raw deal for workers and passengers.

Those airports Carney wants to privatize are making Canada more than half a billion dollars a year. But instead, billionaires and big foreign corporations are about to get a bonanza. And everyday travellers and airport workers will pay for it.

$1.5 billion a year in lost GDP.
$400 million a year in lost government revenue.
10,000 person-years of jobs.

That's what we lose by having China build our ferries instead of doing it here.

Affordable, quality child care makes all the difference for many working parents... but it can be hard to land a space. And if your job doesn't fit into the Monday-to-Friday-nine-to-five box, there may be no options at all.

But some people are working to change that.

“The union isn’t some office somewhere. It’s every member and every worker.” President Eric McNeely has always believed that if you want things to change, you get involved. Read his story here: buff.ly/phNn6CR #bclab

One last 🖖 post: A very happy #StarTrekDay to @cag938.bsky.social, the union that began with the organization of Titmouse Vancouver... the animation studio that brought us Star Trek: Lower Decks!

It's not like there's a "Best Booth of Labour Day" competition... but if there was, the BCFED's Unions Are For You campaign booth would be a solid contender purely based on the energy and enthusiasm of our booth volunteers alone. 🧵

#BCLab #LabourDay

Workers are uniting from one end of BC to another. We see how much more we can do when we're together to make our lives better and our communities stronger — and we know just how central our labour is to the life of our province.

#BCLab #LabourDay

Labour Day belongs to workers. ✊ Today we honour everyone who fought for fair pay, safer workplaces and a voice on the job, and everyone carrying that work forward. To every BCFMWU member working today: We see you. Thank you. ⛴️ #bclab

"If we want a robust economy that works for everyone, there can be no doubt over our best long-term strategy.

"And that’s to invest in workers and their jobs."
