If the government invests in industry, keeping jobs in Canada should be the first priority. It shouldn’t have to be said.
Liberals and Ontario PCs gave a total of $500 million to Algoma Steel.
The company stuffed their coffers and ran. 1,000 are being laid off.

Liberals gave $15 billion to Stellantis and LG Energy Solution. They took their money and ran. Subsidies are meant to support workers, not just fill the pockets of corporate boards. Keeping shifts in Canada should be the first priority. Stop the war on workers.

Vancouver Kingsway MP Don Davies @dondavies.bsky.social points out that Carney cut the tax on private jets. The Liberals swept this under the rug. Seems like the Carney Liberals are just helping out their billionaire buddies.

Increase in productivity since 1979: 87%
Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 32%
Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%.
As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.

Reminder that Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024.
This was the widest CEO-to-Worker pay gap in the entire S&P 500.
And we're supposed to believe Starbucks can't afford to bargain a fair contract with its unionized workers?

As of this morning, Starbucks workers across the country are officially ON STRIKE. And we're prepared for this to become the biggest and longest ULP strike in Starbucks history.
Say #NoContractNoCoffee with us: DON'T BUY STARBUCKS for the duration of our open-ended ULP strike! $SBUX

Public services are getting your passport, signing up for EI and calling for help with your taxes. These workers want to help you, but Carney is cutting them even deeper.

Walmart and McDonald’s are among the top employers of workers who rely on food stamps.
McDonald's CEO raked in $18.2M last year — over 1,000x the company's median employee pay.
Walmart's CEO pocketed $27.4M — 930x the company's median employee pay.

@gordjohns.bsky.social recently spoke about how the Canadian Food Inspection Agency is restricting farmers’ ability to save and reuse seeds. NDP fights for farmers. We want lower costs for farmers and for food. The Government of Canada is on the side of corporate greed here.
