“National interest” cannot become a catch-all excuse to override workers’ bargaining power whenever a lawful strike has economic consequences. That pressure is precisely what strikes are meant to create.
Disappointed how @maxfawcett.bsky.social framed federal labour law changes in this video. 1. Charter rulings are clear about limiting the strikes. 2. Max talks like strikes can just spontaneously be called - that is not how the system works. Plenty of advance notice is given (1/n) #canlab #cdnpoli

USW National Director Marty Warren: “Workers built this country, and workers will build what comes next. But Canada cannot build a stronger economy by weakening the fundamental rights of the people who make our economy work.”
Statement: usw.ca/steelworkers...
Canada's economic security begins at the kitchen table, when workers can make a better living and families can get ahead. And the way we get that is by bargaining for it — which only works when both sides have real power.
“The frontline workers want to provide a much higher quality of service to workers losing their jobs, but they can’t if there are too few of them,” said @davidmaccdn.bsky.social.

Labour code changes will threaten workers’ right to strike.
Make no mistake about it, the Carney government's labour reforms neuter the right to strike. A right that’s suspended when it becomes effective isn’t much of a right at all.
There are historical and political contexts to Carney's proposed labour law reforms that I cover here. In short, restricting the right to strike, especially in federally regulated sectors is a bad idea: theconversation.com/canada-says-... #canlab #cdnpoli
