A reminder that Canada Post workers wanted to do rotating strikes, so mail could still be delivered.
The corporation then locked them out.
Our government needs to stay out of labour disputes.
If you support the gov't ordering postal workers back to work, you do not support workers rights, full stop.

Please don't call what RFK Jr. and Jay Bhattacharya are going to do medieval. It's not medieval. It's nothing like the Middle Ages. People in the Middle Ages were happy to try all kinds of things to not die of the plague and if you'd given them antibiotics and vaccines they would have loved it.

Don’t think it won’t happen again when they come for the “undocumented.”
