Oakville News received the following letter addressing the need for a pro-worker agenda at the federal level

Working people power Canada’s economy. But despite our hard work, workers and our families are struggling to get ahead.

Our pay cheques are stretched thin. Grocery prices are sky-high, interest rates are crushing us, and the cost of a home is through the roof – all while the wealthiest corporations keep taking bigger profits.

Corporations won’t keep themselves in check – so we need our governments to step up.

Recent provincial election results show that voters are rejecting anti-worker agendas and demanding policies that support working families. With a federal election on the horizon, any politician that wants workers votes must ensure that big corporations and the wealthiest are held accountable and made to pay their fair share.

Workers deserve a better future. We’re ready to make it happen.
