Last week the federal government introduced a new piece of legislation, C-58, which is aimed at banning the practice of employers bringing in replacement workers during a contract dispute.

Experts say the legislation is the culmination of decades of work by the labour movement in Canada, while it also represents the fulfilment of a key demand in the Liberal-NDP confidence and supply agreement.

    One thing I try to remind myself is a lot of Gen Z don’t remember how shit having the Cons in charge is. This will basically ensure a generation of people don’t vote Con for at least 20 years. It’s not just the anti-union/pro-wealthy stuff directly, it’s the fact they voted to not admit climate change even exists. They’ve taken every single thing that Millenials/Gen Z care about and done the opposite.

    So, things are gonna get a lot worse for at least 4 years, and then, well, I have a feeling the NDP/Greens will suddenly leap forward in voting numbers.
