I make memes that some people have called “shitty”. I used to post on TikTok, too. And I’m on reddit, for now. (all under the same username)

None of the unionized Starbucks locations in Canada shut down after their union drive, although I get your concern, corporate can be sneaky!

They actually managed to pull it off! They got roughly 20% over the life of the agreement, a $4.50 increase for their highest earning employees (full time and senior part time workers, who make $20 per hour currently) and 3.20 for their lowest earning employees (who make about minimum wage).

Fred Hahn, president of CUPE Ontario, appears to endorse a no vote on the OSSTF (high school teachers) tentative agreement that would trade the right to strike for arbitration (lemmy.ca)

It is extremely rare that a major labour leader like Fred would weigh in on a tentative agreement made by another union. It is even more rare that he appears to be advocating for rejection. Tentative agreements are rarely rejected by union members in Canada, although there has been a slight uptick recently....

More than a million people do that every election, we just need a million more :)

I take credit for a few of those votes - I knock on doors to talk to folks about healthcare and the NDP every campaign!
