Trudeau says using the notwithstanding clause to “suspend workers’ rights is wrong” and while collective bargaining is difficult, the process must happen.

Ford’s tabled legislation overrode Charter sections 2, 7&15 where everyone has the right to:
2 -freedom of expression, assembly & association
7 -life, liberty & security of the person
15 -be equal before & under the law
I’d prefer to see some binding arbitration than suspension of civil rights. #cosocanucks
