Strike for what is right!

Un grève pour ce qui est juste!

🚨 STRIKE NOTICE ISSUED 🚨

Tonight, the WestJet Mainline Bargaining Committee formally issued strike notice after negotiations remained too far apart on several key issues.

This does not mean bargaining has ended. Discussions will continue as both parties work toward reaching a fair agreement that recognizes the professionalism, responsibilities, and value of WestJet Cabin Crew.

Under the Canada Labour Code, the earliest possible strike action would be August 2 at 00:01 MT.

We remain united, informed, and committed to achieving the contract our members deserve.

🚨 AVIS DE GRÈVE ÉMIS 🚨

Ce soir, le comité de négociation de la ligne principale de WestJet a officiellement émis un avis de grève, les positions des parties restant trop éloignées sur plusieurs enjeux clés.

Cela ne signifie pas pour autant que les négociations sont terminées. Les discussions se poursuivront, les deux parties s’efforçant de parvenir à une entente équitable qui reconnaisse le professionnalisme, les responsabilités et la valeur du personnel de cabine de WestJet.

En vertu du Code du travail du Canada, la grève pourrait débuter au plus tôt le 2 août à 00 h 01, MT.

Nous restons unis, informés et déterminés à obtenir la convention collective que nos membres méritent.

Fellow worker Alice shares their thoughts as a s*x worker on the general strike announcement by st*****rs in Montreal over F1 formula racing weekend.

Alice, une travailleuse du s*xe, partage ses réflexions sur l'annonce de la grève générale des strip-teaseuses à Montréal pendant le week-end de course de Formule 1.

"These prosecutions must be viewed not simply as cases against fifteen individuals, but as an attack on the broader movement that emerged to defend immigrant communities and resist authoritarian policies. If the government succeeds in establishing that organizing, coordinating, and mobilizing communities in defense of their neighbors can be treated as criminal conduct, the implications will extend far beyond these defendants."

"Ces poursuites ne doivent pas être perçues comme de simples affaires visant quinze individus, mais comme une attaque contre le mouvement plus large qui s'est formé pour défendre les communautés immigrées et résister aux politiques autoritaires. Si le gouvernement parvient à établir que l'organisation, la coordination et la mobilisation des communautés pour défendre leurs voisins peuvent être considérées comme des actes criminels, les conséquences iront bien au-delà de ces accusés."

The recent federal indictments of fifteen Minnesota activists must be understood for what they are: a serious escalation in the government’s effort to criminalize resistance to ICE operation, intimidate those who have stood up in defense of their communities, and to attack our basic right to organ...
