While Trump creates chaos in order to build wealth for himself (& chaos is creeping into #Canada), @GPBrentBooker & @LIUNA are powering the antidote: our #LabourersRising campaign- talking to and listening to members and growing #solidarity. #Charlottetown @LiUNACanada

Back in the day, a worker died every 33 hours on the job. Unions changed that. #Solidarity isn’t just about wages—it’s about making sure we all make it home. #LIUNABuilds #FeelThePower

Good for @WeBuildBC, of which we are a proud affiliate. Too bad media incorrectly assumed ED Brynn Bourke is a man. 😳BCBT builds glass ceilings, AND breaks them. #FeelThePower westernstandard.news/news/trades-co…

Don’t let the "big fish" call the shots. Organize. Mobilize. Fight back. WIN. When we, we get pushed around. But when we RISE together, we build POWER that can’t be ignored. Ready to make your voice heard and your union stronger? #LabourersRising #LiUNA buff.ly/F11JOuh
