Budget 2026 takes some welcome steps on affordability, but falls short on protecting workers. Nearly $100 billion in business incentives, yet major gaps remain in worker protections and public services. Economic growth should benefit working people, too.

Domestic violence doesn't always stay at home. Our 2014 survey showed how abuse can follow workers into the workplace. Now, we're asking workers across Canada what's changed. Help build safer workplaces. Take the 2026 survey: uwo.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/for…

La violence conjugale ne reste pas toujours à la maison. Notre enquête de 2014 a montré ses répercussions au travail. Aujourd'hui, nous voulons savoir ce qui a changé. Aidez-nous à rendre les milieux de travail plus sûrs : uwo.eu.qualtrics.com/jfe/for…

👏 Cape Breton is standing up for workers! Council unanimously passed a motion calling on Ottawa to fix Bill C-39 and repeal Section 107. Thank you to Councillor Gordon MacDonald and the entire Council for defending the right to strike! #NSpoli

Behind this victory are workers who talked to their neighbours, knocked on doors and refused to sit on the sidelines. To @AFLCIO and everyone who helped make it happen: you’ve given workers on both sides of the border something to celebrate.
This is what worker power looks like! ✊ Congratulations to my friend @LizShuler and all the workers who helped deliver this massive electoral victory. Your union family in Canada is celebrating with you! When we stand together, we win!

Canadian Labour retweeted
The Ontario Federation of Labour extends our deepest condolences to the family, friends and coworkers of the City of Toronto traffic agent and @cupelocal79 member who was killed at work today. This loss is felt by all of us in the labour movement. No worker should lose their life on the job. Everyone should come home safe and sound at the end of the workday. We stand in solidarity with CUPE Local 79 and everyone affected by this devastating loss. A full criminal investigation into the circumstances of this death is needed, and immediate action must be taken to address any hazards identified. Worker safety cannot wait until after a tragedy. Employers must take every necessary step to protect frontline workers and ensure they can do their jobs without losing their lives.

Canada's unions won't back down. Today, labour leaders announced plans for a national war room to fight Carney's attacks on the right to strike. The govt wants a stronger economy, but it's picking an unfair fight with the workers who keep it running. canadianlabour.ca/canadas-la…

Les syndicats ne reculeront pas. Les leaders syndicaux ont annoncé la création d’une cellule de crise nationale pour contrer les attaques de Carney contre le droit de grève. Le gouvt veut une économie forte, mais s’attaque à ceux qui la font tourner. congresdutravail.ca/les-lead…

Canada's unions passed a resolution calling on workers to refuse to handle weapons and military equipment destined for Israel. We stand with Palestinian workers in their fight for peace, justice, and respect for international law. canadianlabour.ca/clc-calls-…
