Although thwarted by procedural delays by the Opposition Progressive Conservatives on March 20, Manitoba’s NDP government has vowed it will move ahead with anti-scab and automatic certification legislation.
“We know that the march towards progressive labour laws that takes into account the most vulnerable of workers across Manitoba — we know that this kind of work doesn’t come easily,” said Labour and Immigration Minister Malaya Marcelino.
“This legislation will pass. It’s got to because folks have been working for this moment for decades.”
