The Labour Front in Canada Today
The cost of living is rising, unemployment is low, and a recession triggered by the Bank of Canada pushing up interest rates is coming. The number of strikes is also up, with the number of private sector workers who struck in the first half of 2022 being especially noteworthy. What's happening? How can workers take advantage of the moment to win as much as possible? Doug Nesbitt and Tara Olivetree (Ehrcke) discuss these and other questions.
Doug is a cofounder of RankAndFile.ca, where you can find many articles he's written.
