Tell your MP to support a workers-first agenda
On Wednesday, March 12 at 7:00 pm ET, Justice for Workers and the Workers’ Action Centre are hosting an emergency town hall. Join us online for Tariffs, trade and why we’re fighting for a No One Left Behind Agenda – register today and share this event with other workers. Interpretation will be available in Bengali, Cantonese, French, Punjabi, Somali and Spanish.
We will learn more about the tariffs, how they impact us, and what we can do to make sure workers are protected no matter what our job or immigration status may be.
We will talk about what we need from all levels of government, including:
- adequate and accessible Employment Insurance
- a freeze on food prices, rent hikes and evictions
- an end to corporations increasing profits without paying their fair share
Take action to demand urgent protections for workers
