A Canadian journalism community for independent news, reports, blogs, editorials, and whatever.

*Independent journalism is generally free from government and corporate interests, and not controlled by a major media conglomerate. “Independence” is a gradient, so use your best judgement when posting.

*All souces must be based in Canada but do not need to be about Canada.

*Current depends on whether new, publicly available information has been released since the article has last been updated. When in doubt, add the publishing or last revision date to the title in a tag [like this.]

Check out !Independent_Media@lemmy.today for independent news from around the world.

Or go to !wildfeed@sh.itjust.works for a less serious, anything-goes news community

All communities were created with the goal of increasing media literacy and media pluralism.

Winning a federal ban on scabs was a major victory for union members. It was supposed to increase workers’ bargaining leverage and help to rebalance the scales in federally regulated workplaces. Employers would no longer be able to simply hire replacement workers during legal strikes or lockouts, undermine the bargaining process, and prolong disputes until unions were forced to surrender. The law was supposed to mean what it said.

The Bank of Canada, however, appears determined to prove otherwise.
