Well yeah they don't want to lose their jobs like everyone in the Quebec warehouse. If Canada doesn't hold Amazon liable for union busting bs, I would not expect the US to be any better

I believe Quebec is suing them and the government has cancelled and banned the used of all Amazon services

True but in normies brain the retaliation was swift but the state's response is limp dick. Executives making these decisions need to be criminally prosecuted and imprisoned, that's how you send a message to a corporate parasite. Otherwise they have no fear of anything and will commit crime as needed.

I don't agree with shooting yourself in the foot to immediately solve a problem
