  1. Get back to the table BC. The #BCGEU said they're prepared to negotiate, so let's go. Cheque issue week is coming for income assistance and disability people in the province, and that ministry is part of this strike with numbers greatly reduced. Let's go. #BCPoli cheknews.ca/thanks-for-y...

    Thanks for your 'patience,' Eb...

  2. A worker has died on these picket lines.

    Striking workers have been attacked by bear spray.

    Yesterday I walked with BC Energy Regulator workers, when they had the cops called on them by their landlords.

    Today I'm walking with tech workers who keep your information way safer than Google and Facebook do, while getting paid well under fair market wages for it.

  3. Hey! I try to not normally post about this stuff, but this is important.

    If you live in BC, it's really important we get as many people as possible to email or call their MLAs and ask for fair pay for BC's wildfire fighters, social workers, liquor distribution staff and more!

    They just need the city you live in, your postal code, and a few words of support for BC public workers.

    If you have followers in BC, boosts are massively appreciated as well. #BCpoli #BCGEU :flag_BC:

  11. The head of the #union representing #BritishColumbia 's 34,000 #PublicSector workers says #BCgovernment request to get back to the bargaining table appears to have been a "cheap stunt" as it offered little change to end weeks of #StrikeAction.

    Paul Finch, president of the B.C. General Employees' Union, said negotiators for the employer were three hours late and hardly increased their offer.

  17. This go around with the BCGEU strike. I don't care if I get a raise, concessions are more financially supportive. I do care about health care workers and wildfire fighters getting a living wage. They have difficult jobs and deserve more than they are receiving. #BCGEU #Strike #wildfires

  20. Happy Labour Day, y’all! 🍞🌹So inspired by this recent wave of workers taking action to fight for fair pay and better working conditions - from the @ cupe_scfp flight attendants to @ bcgeu, who just served their strike notice. I’m watching closely, if the strike goes ahead I’ll see you on the picket lines. #bcpoli #bcgeu

  21. 🇨🇦 ⚠️ The B.C. General Employees' Union (BCGEU) has issued a 72-hour strike notice for more than 34,000 public sector workers.
    Of the 86 per cent of members who participated in the strike vote, the union said 92.7 per cent voted in favour of job action.
    It said job action could start as early as Tuesday morning — the day after Labour Day. However, the union did not provide further details about what that job action might look like.

  22. The last contracts barely went over the inflation rate over the term and didn't even make up the difference of inflation that had been lost over the previous 20 YEARS.

    ie. It didn't even touch the cost of living since the pandemic.

    And now the BC Government thinks it's going to go back to lower-than-inflation raises with 0.5% and 1%?

    Not gonna fly. More people than ever are living paycheque to paycheque.

  23. btw, that “Picture from Canada” was from a BC Liquor Store. You can see the BCL logo at the bottom of the Buy Canadian Instead sign. #buycanadian #trumptariffs

    That might have been helped along by the local Union #bcgeu staff too. ✊

  24. Had a good climate-action related Zoom call with my Pension board trustees this morning and afternoon --- is the most old guy status I’ve ever typed.. also true.

  25. @tim Perhaps you could also pull from mstdn.social?

    Some Canadian labour hashtags for starters?
