Nova Scotia Federation of Labour

I just got off the phone with the Prime Minister. Canada’s unions welcome billions invested in home building and infrastructure funding, the doubling of the Union Training and Innovation Program, and the new $1,100 tax credit for PSWs.

Care is the backbone of our economy, yet care workers remain underpaid, undervalued, and overworked. On this International Day of Care and Support, we’re calling for real public investment in the care systems we all rely on. #CareEconomy

No one should have to choose between their health and their paycheque. Nova Scotia workers deserve 10 paid sick days now. It’s good for workers, families, and public health. Workers before profits. #NovaScotia #workers #PaidSickDays #NSPoli #WorkersRights #Unions #PeopleBeforeProfit

Horrific news from the Yukon: two workers died on the job at a remote mine, and five others were injured. No one should have to risk death to make a living. It’s time to enforce the law. #EnforceWestray #CanLab thesafetymag.com/ca/news/genera…

Today, CLC officers stood with NDP @leahgazan, @dondavies, @cupemark, and workers and allies as the NDP introduced Bill C-247—a bill to repeal Section 107 of the Canada Labour Code. This law has been used 8 times since June 2024 to silence striking workers. Enough is enough.
