I was proud to represent IBEW 🇨🇦 members today as the Gov’t tabled the Sustainable Jobs Act. They worked with unions & NDP to ensure workers are at the centre of this policy & that jobs in the net-zero future are good paying jobs for all Canadians. #LetsGetToWork ⚡️ #IBEW

FACT CHECK Hydro Ottawa’s CEO says our safety concerns aren't valid. We take issue with this & some of his other recent statements. Hydro workers know too well what tragedies can occur when safety isn't taken seriously. A short thread. #safetyisnotspaghetti

FACT CHECK

<a href="/hydroottawa/">Hydro Ottawa</a>’s CEO says our safety concerns aren't valid. We take issue with this &amp; some of his other recent statements.

Hydro workers know too well what tragedies can occur when safety isn't taken seriously.

A short thread.

With over $100 billion being invested in battery and EV manufacturing, a net-zero electricity grid, charging stations, zero-emission transit and many more climate action projects, we're creating thousands of jobs that will help power our transition to a net-zero economy.

1 Email or tweet Hydro Ottawa, Mark Sutcliffe or your City of Ottawa councillor that you support the people who, despite safety issues, having their wages frozen and being understaffed, have worked every major storm and power outage 2 Honk your horn when you see workers picketing

Since 2018, the # of Hydro Ottawa powerline techs has decreased from 115 to <70 today. With an aging power grid and more severe weather events, crews are stretched thin. City of Ottawa reliability rests on the expertise of #IBEW workers on #StrikeDay37. #safetyisserious #onstorm

Don't believe anyone who says the key to economic growth is tax cuts for the wealthy. The secret to prosperity is investment in American workers. When workers have more to spend, the economy grows, and businesses create more jobs. It's a simple formula.
