This isn’t about protecting corporate profits—it’s about defending wages, jobs, and the basic needs of our communities. We don’t need to “sacrifice for the economy”—we need to take control of it.

✅ Nationalizing key industries like energy, transportation, and pharmaceuticals to keep them out of corporate hands ✅ Supporting worker takeovers of failing businesses—because if a company can’t keep people employed, workers should have the power to run it themselves

We need to push back. This is an opportunity for real solutions that put people before profits: ✅ Expanding EI and income support so no one is left behind ✅ Building more co-op and public housing to keep homes affordable ✅ Creating public sector jobs in caregiving, green energy

Governments will try to convince us that “we’re all in this together” and that we need to tighten our belts for the sake of the country. But in reality, their priority will be bailing out corporations—just like they did with the pandemic wage subsidy.

The longer this drags on, the more we can expect: ⚠️ Layoffs and wage cuts ⚠️ Bosses demanding concessions from workers ⚠️ Cuts to public services (austerity) ⚠️ Higher prices on essentials

The Canada-U.S. trade fight isn’t about protecting ordinary people—it’s about protecting corporate profits. When business interests take a hit, it’s workers who end up paying the price.

Women effectively working for free the rest of the year due to the gender pay gap? Absolutely unacceptable. For women in Alberta, this reality started back on August 7, thanks to a 40% pay gap. It’s time to end the undervaluation of women’s work. #GenderPayGap #EqualPay #PayEquity

How do trade unions work?🤔 A worker says to another worker: This isn't right. Then they talk to more colleagues. Then they all realise something has to change. Then they realise they hold all the power, they just need to use it. They use it. They keep going. They win.

Strikes aren’t supposed to be convenient—they’re meant to disrupt and demand attention. Change doesn’t happen quietly. ✊ #StrikeAction #Solidarity #PowerToThePeople

Public Libraries can be wonderful places where children and adults can find books that they can see themselves reflected in, no matter who they are, and books that can introduce them to entire other lived experiences. Both are so valuable!

Joined Bluesky, but let’s be real—the gender wage gap means some of us are still stuck under a cloudy ceiling. According to the Government of Alberta website, the gap between men and women’s pay is 40% #PayEquity #CloseTheGap

Just landed —do I start with an intro or jump straight into chaos? Either way, I’m here, ready to connect, explore, and probably overshare about my love for unions and fighting for pay equity in Alberta. #Solidarity #AlbertaIsTheOnlyProvinceWithoutPayEquity
