At the ILC, CLC's Vicky Smallman spoke on behalf of workers as delegates adopted conclusions on the Transformative Agenda for Gender Equality.
Real change means tackling structural barriers, strengthening collective bargaining, and ensuring no worker is left behind.

The right to strike is a constitutional right, not a loophole. It's one of the most important tools workers have to win fair wages, safe workplaces, and better working conditions.

Today, we remember William Davis and honour the miners who lost their lives working in Nova Scotia’s coal mines.
William Davis Miners’ Memorial Day is an important reminder of the sacrifices workers made to improve workplace safety and workers’ rights in our province.

A Calgary worker was horrifically killed on the job in 2023, following many safety violations. A financial penalty alone isn't justice - its time to #EnforceWestray. Â #CanLab

Workers’ rights are under attack around the world. The @ituc 2026 Global Rights Index makes that clear. Particularly in Canada, where regular violations of workers’ rights were reported.
The Canada Labour Code review must strengthen workers’ rights, not weaken them.

Les droits des travailleurs sont menacés partout.
L’indice @ituc des droits dans le monde 2026 l’indique clairement. Particulièrement au Canada, des violations régulières des droits ont été rapportées.
La révision du Code canadien du travail doit renforcer les droits.

AI is transforming work for millions of Canadians.
Workers need strong protections, independent oversight, safeguards against surveillance and discrimination, and a meaningful voice in how these technologies are used.

Weekends. Benefits. Pensions. Safer workplaces.
That's what worker power delivers.
Strong unions are how workers build power and hold those in power accountable.
That's why @HMcPhersonNDP's Bill C-259 matters.
Parliament debates it today. Workers are watching.
