How workers are saying ‘enough is enough’

Enough Is Enough Weekly Update #1

When we launched the Enough Is Enough campaign, we committed to showing up to support people wherever they’re fighting for a better life – and that’s exactly what we’re doing.

Now, we’re launching a weekly newsletter to keep you updated about ongoing labour actions and how you can support workers who are saying ‘enough is enough!’

Get it in your inbox by signing the pledge at WeSayEnough.ca!
