This boils my blood. I don't know the US labour history, but I do know how hard public sector workers in Canada and Alberta had to fight to gain collective bargaining rights, which they were not allowed because they were "civil servants".

All public worker strikes were wildcat strikes and illegal until 1967 when Federal workers gained the right to collective bargaining through the Public Service Staff Relations Act which took 2 years to pass through Parliament after the wildcat Postal Workers Strike of 1965.

Federal government employees responded by joining unions in record numbers.

Public sector workers in Alberta did not gain these rights until 2016, when the Supreme Court of Canada ruled that ALL Canadian workers have the fundamental right to strike, essential to even the playing field between workers and employers.

That hasn't even been 10 years ago, that our Provincial healthcare workers, education workers, social workers, wildlife workers, custodial workers, and many more have had access to such basic fundamental rights to legal collective job action! You may not have realized that all these strikes you are seeing now are history in the making!

We are living out a struggle for the right of the working-class to SURVIVE.

It breaks my heart to see our fallen comrades losing this fight with such desperation to the south, and makes me fearful of the coming storm we will have to face in Canada as our populist shadow government pushes to put us down in Canada.

Everyone watching the CPC campaign this first week would agree with this...

“They did not prepare. The ground game is a complete and utter mess,”

Conservative insiders going public the Federal campaign is a total train wreck

Global News · ‘The wheels are off’: Senior Conservatives think the Poilievre campaign needs a resetBy Alex Boutilier

Alberta premier, Danielle Smith, is in Florida on the 'Quisling 2025' tour with Ben Shapiro. He calls us a "silly little country that can be annexed like Puerto Rico and that Canadians will welcome Trump like a "liberator."

On the upside, she is doing a fantastic job of sinking her buddy Pierre's campaign. 👏👏

-MP Charlie Angus

6' 8" man allegedly threatened by a 5' 7" woman claims he was inhibited in his duties because he felt threatened by her.

Don't forget this pylon of a man illegally killed horses and threatened to murder property owners when they told him to get off their property because they were trespassing and hunting illegally.

Big man scared shitless by a person over a foot less their size is laughable at best.

Grow a pair, Nixon.

edmontonjournalAlberta NDP's Rakhi Pancholi apologizes for profane confrontation with ministerSpeaker Nathan Cooper said the incident was one of several in recent weeks and called a meeting to consider a MLA code of conduct.

It's really scary how far Poilievre's disinformation about journalism in Canada has spread with the help of Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg, and the Trump administration's political interference. We need to fight back and speak out. We can't let our echo chambers make us complacent that the rest of the country is informed.

(Primarily British group, btw.)

I don't really care how they word it. Donald Trump cut trillions from the average Americans, to give trillions the ultra-wealthy. I pay taxes for the services I rely on, which costs me more the more we privatize. What I want to know is what he's doing about the ultra-wealthy not paying a share, while continuing to exploit our labour.

Before you talk about cutting taxes, I want to hear about restoring public spending to the "average Canadian".

Poilievre thinks he can reduce human beings to dollar signs. Carney says we need to change that value system.

It's time we stop talking about public resources and funding as an expense to be sold off to the highest bidder, but as an investment into all of us who live in this community - the real driving force behind our economy.

I do not trust hack-and-slash Pierre to handle public finances, no matter what the amount.

Danielle Smith is drowning in scandals but somehow still floats.
We thought Elon was too rich to fail, too. Now he's scared.
It's time we make Dani scared—of the people she's supposed to represent.

🧠 The AHS firing scandal
💰 Wasteful Turkish medicine imports
🌍 And now? Openly asking for foreign interference in our elections.

Enough is enough. When will Albertans hold her accountable for the quisling she is? #abpoli

CBC'Offensive and false': Alberta premier's office denies Smith urged U.S. to interfere in federal election | CBC NewsThe office of Alberta Premier Danielle Smith is vehemently denying accusations that she asked the U.S. to interfere with Canadian federal politics, as comments Smith made during an interview with an American news outlet earlier this month made waves this weekend.

Alberta Premier Danielle Smith (and her side-kick Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe) are Vichyists in the pockets of fossil fuel interests. (Or as we labour folks call them....scabs)
