Work Overload: Time for a Union Strategy

Michael Hurley and Sam Gindin

Talk to workers in any sector, in any workplace and sooner or later they'll get to their frustrations with their ever-increasing workloads: 'I'm struggling', they'll lament to fellow workers or anyone ready to listen, 'to just do the job, never mind do it well'.

Big Media has the spin but weve got the fact





Friends,

We are at E-minus 46 in the longest election campaign in Canada's history. The conservatives have their war chest full and their friends in corporate media who unabashedly repeat lies about Harper's "positive economic record," or that the economic news is "good." And that is just the tip of the deceptions.

Over the last few weeks, dozens of people like you have taken action to bring climate change onto the campaign trail by demanding that federal leaders make a strong commitment to tackling climate change and freezing tar sands expansion.

Climate organizers have staged bold and creative demonstrations at campaign events across Canada. Thanks to these confrontations, both Justin Trudeau and Thomas Mulcair have promised an overhaul of Canada’s review process for pipelines. They’ve both committed to introducing a new process that includes climate change in the reviews of tar sands pipelines in Canada -- such as the Energy East Project.
