Yes LL is right, workers must organize and that includes internationally, this way labour standards are set and then there can be no exploitation.

Yes a worker center will be a great asset in this city, it will give workers the chance to join together, to learn, to be a direct voice and direct action. Workers must stand together.

I attended a function at the art gallery, where the presenters talked about the structural changes to Human rights and the presenters stated that the commission is getting many calls regarding employment issues, yet they do not qualify under the act. Workers are getting desparate as there is no place for them to go.

Workers are getting left behind , gee, even if you file a complaint with the Min of lab, it is now taking a year or more for them to look at it.

I watched a film on Monday at Sky dragon, You, Me and SPP by Paul Manly. Everyone should watch this film, as it delves into the policies that are now be formed and also looks at NAFTA, chpater 11 and the consequences we are now facing in regards to this, as a society across three nations. The people have lost, even though the public relation spin was that workers and people would win.

Take heed, soon we will lose more.

Those from the grassroots can affect change
