🇨🇦 Carney wants nation-building with workers muzzled

After years of lecturing Canadians about rights, the Liberals are now quietly shopping ways to curb the right to strike for more than a million workers in federally regulated industries. Mark Carney’s crew says the Canada Labour Code has not kept up with the times. Translation: Ottawa wants ports, rail, airlines and mail moving on command while it chases export targets and infrastructure fantasies. Even the unions noticed the consultation papers look suspiciously like Corporate Canada’s wish list, as reported.

This is the Trudeau legacy with a banker’s haircut: centralize power, bypass scrutiny, then call it economic urgency. Section 107 already became a handy club to order workers back on the job, and now they are floating broader essential-service definitions, tighter strike timelines, and a new mediator to keep everyone obedient. Funny how the same regime that cannot control the border, housing costs, or immigration numbers suddenly becomes ruthlessly efficient when national supply chains and investor confidence are on the line. Sovereignty for Canadians, discipline for Canadians, and flexibility for global capital.
