Unions have strike funds to pay those participating in the strike. It’s not the full amount though, and it’s not like they’re paid enough these days.

If you’re near a picket line it’s worth bringing some treats to the strikers. The sweet taste of solidarity helps.

Yeah… Per the article, the office of the Labour Minister is investigating so maybe they will intervene to improve funding. I know a postie and they really deserve better conditions.

TLDR: The collective agreement was extended until May 22 after the return to work order. Negotiations for a new collective agreement are ongoing, but could just end in a strike again.

Merci!

Votre spécéficité culturelle constituera la nôtre. (Pardon, je ne parle pas français. Les commentaires sont appréciés.)

Fwiw PR would be better for moderate conservatives, because a separate centre-right party would be better able to work with the Liberals for stuff they want, whereas as it stands being coopted by the far right they’re going to struggle to do anything without a majority. Depending on your MP’s leanings you might be able to advocate for support.

Your cultural distinctiveness will constitute our own

Absolutely. Where can I watch this
