This is life in Attawapiskat First Nation in Ontario right now. This shameful, colonial practice needs to end now. The peoples of Attawapiskat have suffered more than any of us can imagine. Don’t turn a blind eye- demand that @SeamusORegan end this immediately.

When will pension theft end in Canada? Pensions are deferred wages & Sears retirees are getting a 30% cut overnight while Min of Finance’s family biz Morneau-Shepell gets rich on the backs of hardworking Canadians Workers should be first on the list.

This is the President of the United States telling an elected congressional member “to go back” to their country. Xenophobia from the highest office and people in cages. How can anyone think the US is a safe country? Canada must suspend Safe Third Country agreement immediately.

As a 20 year shift worker I can tell you it has real health impacts. Working 2 weeks days, 2 weeks afternoons, 2 weeks midnights is called the MAD shift for legit reasons. Not to mention being on opposite shifts of your partner & kids. Shout out to all the shift workers 🇨🇦

Make Revera public now. Send in immediate help and take it over. During first wave- many complaints by workers of understaffing, lack of PPE, overtime & pandemic bonus not paid & now this. This corrupt greedy company continues to deny its mismanagement while people are dying.

Absolutely heartbreaking-30 yo migrant worker has died in Essex. No one should come to Canada as an essential worker & not return home safely. Who is this employer? Who is inspecting the farms? Who is standing up for these workers who have risked everything to come here?
