Winnipeg Labour Council
275 Broadway # 504 R3C 4M6 Winnipeg, MB, Canada

Winnipeg Labour Council adopted this motion on Tuesday night which was brought forward by David Camfield: (please see comment section for additional information) Winnipeg Labour Council calls on the provincial government to abandon its failed COVID-19 pandemic strategy and adopt a strategy of suppression and mitigation. This must be accompanied by extensive social supports to reduce the impact of an effective lockdown on workers required to work outside the home, low-incom...e people, and other persons who suffer during a lockdown. Winnipeg Labour Council will work with other organizations to pressure the provincial government to adopt such a strategy. See more

Our second Winnipeg Labour Council zoom meeting is in the books! Congrats to our two new Members at Large (Gina McKay and Steph Mack) and our new Trustee (Greg ...Flemming). Thanks to all the delegates who participated and Kevin Rebeck for joining us and explaining Bill 16- Pallister’s continued attacks on labour. At some point I’ll be seamless with the mute/unmute Great job team! See more
