We condemn the ON Gov’s Bill 28, which has violated 55,000 CUPE members’ rights to collective bargaining and to strike. We join @CAUT_ACPPU, and voices in the broader labour movement across Canada, in denouncing these actions. caut.ca/node/12139

We’re asking Canadians to send a letter to their MPs to advocate for the legalization of #AdvanceRequests. An advance request could save a person from having to endure years — perhaps even decades — of unwanted suffering. Send a letter today. ow.ly/ufrf50Lacvn
Allow advance requests now | Dying With Dignity Canada

Allow advance requests now | Dying With Dignity Canada

The lack of access to advance requests is a critical gap in our country’s assisted dying legislation — and must be corrected.
