Thank you so much @canadianlabour.bsky.social for meeting this week to discuss priorities for upholding workers’ rights in Canada, such as repealing Section 107 of the Canada Labour Code and ending attacks on the right to strike. (1/2)

Too many workers, especially women and gender-diverse people, face violence and harassment on the job.

If you’ve ever felt unsafe or witnessed it, we want to hear from you. #16Days #RiseUp

In today’s meeting with Minister Lena Metlege Diab, workers made one message clear: migrant workers are workers. They contribute to our economy & our communities. They deserve stronger protections, permanent pathways, & a fair deal, just like every worker in Canada. #WorkersTogether #LobbyDay2025

🚨 Today’s the day!

300+ workers are hitting Parliament Hill, uniting their voices for working people. With over 100 meetings with decision-makers, we’re bringing real issues to the table.

What issues do you think should be raised?

From Nov 25–Dec 10, Canada’s unions join the global call to end gender-based violence. Every worker deserves safety, dignity & respect.

This #IDEVAW & #16Days, we’re pushing for action:

✅ Implement ILO C-190 & address third-party violence
✅ Fund & support GBV workers

We’re getting started!

Workers from across Canada are in Ottawa today, training, planning, and powering up for tomorrow’s #CLCLobby Day on Parliament Hill.

Big energy. Big demands. Big day ahead.

A quick message from Bea ahead of tomorrow's Lobby Day👋

This year we’re zeroing in on affordability, trade, strong infrastructure and public services.

Can’t wait to have 300+ workers here in Ottawa. #CLCLobby

Violence and harassment should never be part of the job — and our thoughts are with the family and loved ones of Amber Czech, a 20 year-old Minnesota welder who was brutally attacked and killed in her workplace. #canlab

Nick Chenier’s family deserves justice for his death at work. While we’re disappointed by the outcome, we know laying charges sends a message about the seriousness of worker safety. We want more investigations and more charges. #EnforceWestray #CanLab

CLC Secretary-Treasurer Lily Chang is joining global worker voices at the @ilo.org Governing Body, the UN agency that defends social justice and decent work. Together, they’re making sure labour standards are upheld and workers’ rights stay front and centre all year long.

Yesterday, CLC Exec VP Siobhan Vipond joined @opseusefpo.bsky.social Local 249 on the picket lines.

These essential workers have endured 40+ days of lockout threats & intimidation & they've had enough.

What they're asking for?
Fair wages. Safe staffing. Respect.
And they deserve nothing less.

On Trans Day of Remembrance, we remember the trans people whose lives were cut short by violence. We hold space for grief & we transform that grief into action.

Everyone has a role in creating safer workplaces and communities for trans people.

While Albertans face real crises, Premier Danielle Smith is scapegoating trans and gender-diverse people with Bill 9, overriding Charter rights to push hate-filled politics.
