Canada's anti-scab law exists for a reason and must be enforced. Today, I wrote to @PattyHajdu regarding reports that CPKC may be using replacement workers during the @IBEWCanada strike. If true, these allegations must be investigated and addressed. progressiverailroading.com/l…

Artificial intelligence is transforming work for millions of Canadians. Canada’s unions are united in calling for stronger AI laws, independent oversight, protections against surveillance and discrimination, and a greater role for unions in shaping how AI is used.
We just launched Canada’s new AI Strategy: AI For All.    We’re taking control of our future — with AI that’s governed by Canadian values, AI that’s accountable to Canadians, and AI that serves all Canadians.

It is critical that AI is developed and deployed in ways that protect workers’ rights, address growing concerns about job security, and do not deepen existing inequalities, especially for women and marginalized workers.

We welcome the federal government’s proactive approach to this issue and look forward to working together to ensure AI protects rights, strengthens equity, and benefits all workers.

Canada’s Unions fully support the statement by leaders representing teachers across Canada against the use of notwithstanding clause during labour negotiations. I urge everyone to add their name to this petition.
Presidents representing teachers and education workers from across 🇨🇦 collectively declare the use of the Notwithstanding Clause during labour negotiations as an abuse of legislative power. ❗ Take action by adding your name to our petition: ctf-fce.ca/take-action/notwi…

The ICJ has made it clear: the right to strike is a fundamental right. Any government that undermines that right is undermining workers’ freedom and democracy itself. This is a historic victory for workers around the world.’   ✊
Canada’s unions join the trade unions across the globe in welcoming today’s affirmative ruling from the International Court of Justice, which affirms that the right to strike is protected under Convention No. 87. Solidarity ✊

Last week in my hometown of Winnipeg, 2,000 union activists at #CLC2026 sent a clear message to Danielle Smith: Our health care is NOT for sale. Public health care is one of the things that defines us as Canadians and we are ready to fight to protect it.
🚫 NO two-tier health care. Activists at #CLC2026 stood united against Alberta’s push toward privatized, American-style health care and called on the federal government to uphold and enforce the Canada Health Act. Health care is a human right. canadianlabour.ca/canadas-un…

There’s no place like Winnipeg, my hometown, and a city built on worker power. I’m proud to welcome thousands of workers, leaders, and delegates here for our 31st Constitutional Convention as we continue building what comes next.

Billions of dollars to recruit, train & hire 100k skilled trades workers is a smart investment in Canada. Now we need to build on these positive steps to meet the urgent needs of Canada’s workers for job security and affordability. See my statement below. canadianlabour.ca/workers-ne…

Let’s stop and pause today for all of the workers who have been impacted by physical or psychological harm while at work. Every single worker deserves to come home safe at the end of their work day. An injury to one is an injury to all! ✊🏻✊🏻✊🏻
Work should never cost you your life or your mental health. Psychological injuries are real, preventable, and rising across workplaces. Today we remember those we’ve lost and recommit to fighting for safer, healthier work for everyone. Our statement: canadianlabour.ca/day-of-mou…

Workers produce Canada's wealth but they're not getting their fair share of if. Our bargaining power is our best tool to build a stronger and better economy.

We will work with the government to remove barriers to unionizing and empower workers to bargain for better deals. And we would fight back against any attempt to undermine workers' right to strike, as we've done whenever governments have taken away workers' rights.
