LCBO members of OPSEU/SEFPO have worked incredibly hard over the last few months building worker power and momentum for their upcoming round of bargaining, which starts on March 13.Nearly 7,000 LCBO workers have signed a petition to show they’re ready to stand up and stop the Ford government’s sell-off of the LCBO and keep it public. And they’re ready to fight for the wages and working conditions they deserve.The LCBO generates approximately $2.5 billion in annual revenue that goes directly towards public services – like health care and education – that we all rely on. Premier Doug Ford has announced that his government will open the floodgate for big box grocers and gas stations to sell beer, wine, cider and “ready-to-drink” cocktails.We cannot allow the Ford government to keep putting those revenues into big box store CEOs’ pockets. It’s time to make some noise and show our solidarity and support for LCBO workers!
Join the Day of Action on Tuesday, March 12!
We’re delivering our petitions to MPPs’ offices in 11 locations across the province. We’re ready to send a message to the Ford government that LCBO workers are fighting back!
