MLA Giddons 🚫 me on X. Wonder if it's because he and Harman Bhangu spent the last few days meeting with my local 2009 and District 3 @steelworkers while fully preparing to attack worker rights. Stay tuned for the perspective of Labour on your procurement bill Kiel. #bclab

Dropped by @LangleyCity_'s 1st unionized Starbucks with @Dave_Eby. The workers organized a union under Single Step Certification. A great example of what we can achieve when Government supports workers. @USWDistrict3 @steelbucks2009 @USW2009 #bclab #bcpoli #LangleyBC @bcfed

It all started in the labour movement for me. Great to drop into @CLCPacific Winter School and speak with union leaders from across the province about the work we need to do! @HarryBainsSN @JM_Whiteside @routledge_janet #bclab #canlab #bcpoli @bcfed @WeBuildBC

UBC is trying to stop a union bid from more than 3,000 student research assistants. The school is arguing those researchers are students receiving scholarships, not employees receiving wages. #canlab #bclab #bcpoli

Not only were B.C. public servants discouraged from questioning Dr. Henry's (and her political masters') decisions - she does, after all, report to @adriandix - they were punished in the severest way possible for not complying with their authoritarian dictates. @VaughnPalmer

Vaughn Palmer: COVID review finds ways to bypass NDP attempts to limit scope

Of course, it wasn't just Henry and Wanamaker. The @bcndp was already planning to fire thousands of healthcare workers for not taking the vaccine, and they did. Thousands more experienced B.C. public servants retired early to avoid the mandate. Hundreds have since been fired.

The firings were done in the most punitive way possible. With just cause. For 'misconduct'. No severance pay, often after decades of loyal service. No EI. Black marks on employment records. Shunning and ostracization from workplaces. All in the name of health and safety. #bclab

BREAKING NEWS: MoveUP has reached a tentative agreement with Capilano University. #bclab
