The Liberal Party of Canada held its national convention in Halifax April 19 – 21. On April 20th, PSAC members delivered two flyers to the delegates. The first flyer was on the Phoenix Pay System which called on the Liberal Party to stop forcing workers who have mistakenly received overpayments, to pay back the gross amount. It also reminded the governing party of the basic principle that every worker should be getting paid correctly and on time, every time. The second flyer was on the need for a universal, high quality child care system in Canada.

Sisters and Brothers,
This week is National Volunteer Week and I wanted to take a brief moment to recognize and thank all of you who dedicate your time for our union. Our members give so much without expecting anything in return. We work together to improve working conditions for all workers in society and we take on causes that our near and dear to our hearts. We obtain many victories and accomplishments because of the work we do together.
Thank you for dedicating so much of your time and efforts to our union.
In solidarity,

Loblaw recently admitted to fixing the price of bread at stores across the country for more than a decade, and the company announced it would offer $25 gift cards to all customers as an apology.
PSAC’s Regional Young Worker Committees are shifting the price-fixing scandal into a way to help Canadians in need.
