👉The premier of Canada’s most populous province is under fire for a “draconian” bill that would fine school support staff C$4,000 a day for striking, prompting concerns that Ontario is eroding fundamental workers’ rights and setting a troubling precedent. The Canadian Union of Public Employees, which represents 55,000 education workers, has called for an 11.3% raise for its workers often the lowest paid in schools arguing that stagnant wage growth and high inflation have hit the lowest earners hardest. The government has countered with a 2.5% annual raise for the lowest income workers and 1.5% raises for others. With little progress on negotiations and a strike planned on Friday, the government fast-tracked Bill 28. If passed, the controversial legislation which fines workers C$4,000 a day and the union C$500,000 for striking.✅ . . #Canadianworkersstrike #strike #canadastrike #canadianstrikes #strikesincanada #draconian #Canadianunionofpublicemployees #OntarioNews #Canadanews #dailynewscanada #candadianmallu #mnm #malayalisnearmeapp #canadaupdate #canadanews
