Solidarity today in Winnipeg as part of the National Day of Action against Bill C-39. ✊

10/16/2026

MFUR President Paul Moist joined with labour and community to oppose federal Bill C-39.

Bill C-39 is a direct attack on working people that strips away our constitutional right to strike. Today’s message was loud and clear: our collective bargaining rights are not up for negotiation!

That takes away one of the most powerful tools workers have to win better wages, safer workplaces and a fair deal.
