Unifor Votes – Provincial Election - Unifor Local 88
Members, Ontario voters have been pushed into a provincial election while facing an unknown future because of President Trump’s crushing tariff threats. The ongoing threat of sweeping tariffs of 25% on Canadian goods and 10% on energy imported to the United States has thrown our country into instability. Just the potential of tariffs is causing economic harm

Even if you don't have it, you're paying for others to: private health insurance. Up to $4 billion/year! What if instead, we spent these billions in public subsidies for private care, on healthcare for everyone? My latest, for the @torontostar.bsky.social - www.thestar.com/opinion/cont...

~We need more Tommies for leaders.
Once more, let me remind you what fascism is. It need not wear a brown shirt, or a green shirt — it may even wear a dress shirt. Fascism begins the moment a ruling class, fearing the people may use their political democracy to gain economic democracy, begins to destroy political democracy in order to retain its power of exploitation and special privilege.
