The CFNU strongly condemns the aspects of Bill C-39 that infringe on a workers’ right to strike. Bill C-39’s changes to Section 107 of the Canada Labour Code are an attack on workers’ constitutional right to strike and threaten the fair negotiating process. Canada’s nurses will always support free and fair labour relations as a cornerstone of a democratic society. Taking away the power workers have – to negotiate fair wages, benefits and good working conditions – is not only undemocratic but also contrary to the national interest. The anti-constitutional powers found in this new Bill must be removed.

La FCSII condamne fermement les aspects du projet de loi C-39 qui portent atteinte au droit de grève des travailleuses et travailleurs. Les modifications apportées par le projet de loi C-39 à l’article 107 du Code canadien du travail constituent une attaque contre le droit constitutionnel des travailleuses et des travailleurs de faire la grève et menacent le processus de négociation équitable. Les infirmières et infirmiers du Canada soutiendront toujours des relations de travail libres et équitables comme pierre angulaire d’une société démocratique. Retirer aux travailleuses et travailleurs le pouvoir de négocier des salaires équitables, des avantages sociaux et de bonnes conditions de travail n’est pas seulement antidémocratique mais également contraire à l’intérêt national. Les pouvoirs anticonstitutionnels présents dans ce nouveau projet de loi doivent être supprimés.

🇨🇦🍁 In a matter of days, Albertans will be asked to make decisions that could shape the future of this province for years to come, by way of the Referendum vote. Ten questions will be on the ballot, touching on immigration, Canada’s Constitution and Alberta’s place within Canada.

Among them, Albertans will be asked to choose whether Alberta should remain a province of Canada or begin the legal process required to hold a future binding referendum on separation

These are not small questions. They touch on who we are, how we are governed and the kind of province, and country, we leave to those who come after us.

UNA believes Alberta’s future is stronger within Canada and supports Alberta remaining a province of Canada. At the same time, we respect that every Albertan has the right to consider these questions carefully and cast their ballot according to their own values and convictions.

Whatever your position, this is a moment to be informed, to understand what you are being asked and to participate.

🟧👕 On Wednesday, September 30, United Nurses of Alberta will observe the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, which honours residential school survivors and remembers the children who never returned home, their families, and their communities.

September 30 is also Orange Shirt Day, during which all Canadians are invited to wear orange shirts to honour survivors and raise awareness of the intergenerational impacts if the residential school system that operated in Canada from before Confederation in 1867 until 1997.

Orange Shirt Day is an Indigenous-led commemoration honouring the children who survived residential schools and remembering those who did not. In September 1973 six-year-old Phyllis Webstad had her first day at St. Joseph Mission Indian Residential School. She arrived dressed in a new orange shirt, a gift from her grandmother; the shirt was promptly taken from her. The orange shirt has become a symbol of the stripping away of culture, freedom and self-esteem experienced by Indigenous children over generations.

An immediate concern for United Nurses of Alberta is identifying and preventing weapons from entering health care facilities.

UNA has been calling for the urgent installation of weapons detection systems in hospital emergency departments that are identified as facing weapons-related risks.

Earlier this month, the University of Alberta Hospital in Edmonton began screening patients and visitors for weapons before they enter its emergency department. The Royal Alexandra Hospital implemented weapons screening in May following the stabbing at that facility earlier in the year.

UNA has also called on the provincial government to update its hazard identification, assessment and control document to reflect the realities currently facing health-care workers and to generally implement measures that will ensure staff safety.
