CATCA joined fellow transportation union leaders from @UniforTheUnion for a meeting with Minister of Transport @stevenmackinnon during Protect Canadian Jobs lobby week to discuss the priorities necessary to support a strong and safe transportation system in Canada. Ensuring the long-term safety and stability of the system requires continued focus on the people who operate it. Thank you, Minister MacKinnon. #cdnpoli #aviation #Transportation #Safety __________________________ L'ACCTA s'est jointe à d'autres dirigeants syndicaux du secteur des transports d'@UniforTheUnion pour une rencontre avec le ministre des Transports @stevenmackinnon dans le cadre de la semaine de lobbying « Protect Canadian Jobs », afin de discuter des priorités indispensables au maintien d'un système de transport solide et sûr au Canada.

Unifor leaders from aviation, rail and road transport brought their top concerns and recommendations to Minister of Transportation Steven MacKinnon during the Protect Canadian Jobs lobby week. Union leaders outlined the moves this government should make to support a strong and safe transportation industry, from procurement all the way to passengers. It starts with workers and their working conditions. Thank you Minister for the dialogue.

Thank you John! We had a great week in Ottawa with local leaders from across this country and from every part of the economy.

Many thanks to Minister of Finance @FP_Champagne for meeting with Unifor leaders. Workers need the federal government to act with urgency to develop worker-centered industrial policies to protect Canadian jobs and to support those who have already lost their livelihoods as a result of U.S. imposed tariffs. protectjobs.ca

Unifor leaders are in Ottawa telling federal leaders to Protect Canadian Jobs. Stand with workers and tell your MP to step up. Sign the pledge now: protectjobs.ca/take_the_pledge

50 minutes sitting on runway in Ottawa after we landed. No news on how much longer. No real news about why the delay except “no available ground crew” Here’s an idea Ottawa airport. Stop contract flipping. Give people a real job with good wages. And fix this. #yow

A data centre in Etobicoke was approved to consume 1.2B litres/year. This World Water Day, governments must address the imbalance between AI data centres and the water security of our communities, including 37 First Nations communities under long-term boil water advisories. unifor.org/news/all-news/…

The Government of Spain demands the opening of Hormuz and the preservation of all the energy sites of the Middle East. We stand at a global tipping point. Further escalation could trigger a long-term energy crisis for all humanity. The world should not pay the consequences of this war.

At minimum we need an excess profits tax. Now.

Today, for the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, Unifor honours and remember the victims of the Sharpeville Massacre. It is the responsibility of trade unionists to confront and eliminate racism and all forms of oppression that seek to divide workers. unifor.org/news/all-news/…
