TORONTO, Sept. 06, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Canada’s unions are launching a cross-Canada tour ahead of next month’s federal election to promote priority issues with workers. CLC President Hassan Yussuff will be in Toronto to launch the national tour, which includes training for union activists. The training will help prepare workers to canvass their communities in battleground ridings across the GTA and throughout Canada. He will be available to speak to media about “A Fair Canada for Everyone,” the CLC’s federal election campaign, which launched on Labour Day.
