Your cant have a pay increase as we have to pay For the PM’s lavish lifestyle!!!! Remember 20K a month for groceries and 6K hotel rooms.
It’s okay strike will be over soon. Trudeau will invoke the emergency act again 😅
Lol na that’s only for freedummies
Yes work from home get a raise while the rest of Canadians struggle to even get a home.
Yes, don’t aspire to advance in life and complain about those who do. Every injustice in your life is everyone else’s fault.
you are the decisions you make
Hi Akshay Brij Thakur this side from Newsx
“What to know” more like “what you’re supposed to think “
Glad I’m not the only one prepared for biased news and Trudeau spin
@Synaesthesia ? The bulk of this story was dedicated to telling the story of a union currently fighting against Trudeau. Not sure if that matters to you, of course. You might just randomly post this kind of thing on every news story.
No, I don’t need to know anything else and I don’t care.
Indian news channel ?
Wrong country
Wish I made what they did. Fire them all. Hell I’ll do what they do for what they make now
If your employer had to compete with more and more employers who pay more, don’t you think your pay might increase? Or, if not, don’t you think you could more easily find a higher paying job? Why would you want this union to lose, when their pay will create competition that drives up the pay that average workers get?
@kiki M agreed. One just commented 😂
@Madam Fright Haaaaaa there it is….😂 Yeah, you would do the same as everybody else
@Happy Rhino boomer is that you 🤣 🤣 🤣
Getting close to riot times🔥💥🔥💥💣
This isn’t France.
BRING THE FRENCH RIOT ENERGY HERE! I AM ON BOARD
Find a solution and get this over with.
Wish I made 40k/yr
Consider that a victory for the union means there will be tens of thousands of jobs that pay a little bit more now than they used to. Other employers need to compete with those wages. And other employers need to compete with those. You are somewhere in there. When thousands of workers fight for better pay and benefits, they are indirectly fighting for all workers to get the same.
Lol maybe you should have graduated highschool and moved out of your parents basement
@Jumbo Me why
@GENX who would deliver your Taco Bell then 🤔
@pyRoy6 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. You must be boomer
Have Federal workers ever heard of AI, cause this how Federal workers get replaced by AI
They will never be satisfied
Sounds like your average Canadian
how many years did you work in Canada; how much tax dollars paid for Canada your family?
maybe nothing..
@Magda Rosson He is working for on cash 😂
CRA COLLAPSE
Make it -30 degrees, lets see if these strikers will be on the picket line 🙂
Wrong time of year here in Canada.
Sleepy burocrates
40k to 60k is still ok in these times, especially for a job that requires close to no experience or education
this is incredibly incorrect. Don’t say things you don’t know anything about.
Horrible. They will never be satisfied. think about huge pension….. only for government worker.
Why don’t they offer them the same raise the seniors got for the cost of inflation caused by this government. The one time payment of $234.00 dollars to cover the cost of inflation.
Don’t back down. All you CRA workers deserve absolutely everything you are asking for.
