GATINEAU, QC, April 30, 2021 /CNW/ - Today, the Minister of Labour, Filomena Tassi, issued the following statement regarding the Royal Assent of Bill C-29: Canadians and the Canadian economy rely on the Port of Montréal and its workers to keep goods moving.
The introduction of this legislation was not something our government took lightly. We believe the best collective agreements are the ones made at the table between the parties.

Bernie Sanders intervenes in NYU graduate student strike as UAW prepares sell-out
The strike of 2,000 New York University (NYU) graduate students is nearing the end of its first week. As the United Auto Workers (UAW), with which the Graduate Student Organizing Committee (GSOC) is affiliated, is stepping up efforts to shut it down as quickly as possible, the Democratic Party is heavily intervening in the strike.
A vote at Columbia University on a sell-out contract negotiated by the UAW behind the backs of the membership is ending today, on April 30. Many graduate students are opting to vote no and there is widespread anxiety about a possible rigging of the vote, something for which the UAW is notorious.

A new ruling marks the latest victory for former Marco Island police officer Tige Thompson in a two-year-long saga that has now seen the Marco Island resident terminated twice by the department. Of course we re happy about the decision, Gulf Coast Police Benevolent Association President Matt Sellers said. Tige s original dismissal from the police department was based on the state attorney choosing not to have him testify in court. And that was based on discipline that was not supported by just or reasonable cause. We re very happy about this decision, but the fight is not over.
