Singh: Anti-worker move proof that Trudeau caves to corporate greed

NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh released the following statement in response to the Liberal government's decision to undermine 9,300 workers with a binding arbitration order in the CN and CPKC lockout:

"Justin Trudeau has just sent a message to CN, CPKC and all big corporations-being a bad boss pays off.

The Liberals' actions are cowardly, anti-worker and proof that they will always cave to corporate greed, and Canadians will always pay for it.

There will be no end to lockouts now. Every employer knows they can get exactly what they want from Justin Trudeau by refusing to negotiate with their workers in good faith. And that puts the safety of workers and communities at risk."
