Lunch-time round table with Deena Ladd
November 07, 2012
The laws covering workers are outdated. And the government is not doing enough to enforce the weak laws that do exist. One in three employers breaks the law, often with no penalty.
Toronto's Workers’ Action Centre brings people together to fight for better wages and working conditions for all workers in Ontario. Join us as Ottawa activists compare notes with social movements in Toronto. How can we fight racism and poverty in the National Capital Region?
Toronto's Workers’ Action Centre is committed to developing leadership amongst the workers directly affected by low wages and poor working conditions, and to actively involve them in their campaigns and advocacy work to improve wages and working conditions for all workers. Supporting each other means taking action for change!
