Halifax

Stand Up For Free And Fair Collective Bargaining


4:00pm
Lundi Septembre 29 2014

Venue: Province House
Address: Hollis Street

The Liberal government will be introducing legislation on Monday that will dictate to health care workers which union they will belong to.  This is a violation of the Trade Union Act which gives workers the right to a union of their choice, not their employer's choice.  Nova Scotia's health care unions are united against this legislation and are calling on the government to accept a deal to create a bargaining association for health care.

We encourage all union activists and members and our social justice allies to come to a rally starting at 4 pm on Monday, September 29th at Province House in support of our health care workers and free collective bargaining.  The House will begining sitting at 7 pm and we want to be there as the politicians begin to arrive.  This could be a late night depending on how long the House sits, so dress warm.
