During a crowded town hall meeting in Kenora on April 4, OPSEU President Warren (Smokey) Thomas told people that the We Own It campaign is making privatization an election issue.
Thomas told 89.5 The Lake that the We Own It campaign has now signed up more than 57,000 supporters.
"We hope to mobilize those 57,000 people … to vote in favour of a platform that's pro public service and anti-privatization," Thomas said.
