Amazon is quitting Quebec to ‘shock and awe’ workers worldwide ⋆ The Breach The corporate giant feared a ‘breakthrough’ after Quebec workers unionized and were set to secure the first collective agreement in the world

Amazon couldn’t stop a historic union drive in Quebec—so now it’s shutting down all its facilities and leaving the province.

Scholar and organizer Mostafa Henaway says the corporate giant is sending an unmistakable message of intimidation to its global workforce.

The Liberal government has forced postal workers back to work.

@halfpastcapitalism.bsky.social writes that this isn’t just a suppression of labour rights—it’s a missed opportunity to implement the visionary, green proposals of postal workers to reinvent the public service for the 21st century.
