  1. See that’s why we shouldn’t bring temporary foreign workers into Canada. They travel back a forth from are country to there’s. I’ve worked in cargill you Wear full PPE. Don’t be fooled

  2. Linked? Let’s have some facts, not opinions. The union is making a pretty strong statement that they better back with facts.

  3. So why not demand justice from the union? All those dues that get paid, those were supposed to be helping workers before death number one.

    1. Because most unions only care about the dues paid and the votes they can coerce from their members to the political parties they’re part of.
