A Case Study of Retail Workers’ Struggle and Union Renewal in Ontario Supermarkets
On Friday March 24 in Toronto, join this interactive afternoon session, where we’ll explore the outcomes of supermarket bargaining and contract negotiations in the context of broader union renewal strategies. We’ll also interrogate how these gains in collective bargaining intersect with building a culture of political activism among low-wage workers to combat precarious work, including through the Fight for $15 and Fairness movement. The session will include a panel discussion followed by facilitated table discussions.

In one week, Unifor will begin its first-ever round of bargaining with the Detroit Three automakers in what may be the most important round of bargaining to take place in the sector in more than a generation.
When I and representatives from each of the Unifor bargaining units at the Detroit Three automakers sit down with the companies to formally open negotiations on August 10 and 11, we will have one clear and simple message for them.
Invest in Canada.
