Workers First - Reform Canada's Bankruptcy Laws

Fax your MP

The United Steelworkers has developed concrete proposals, and a recent private member’s bill (C-281 by Pat Martin, NDP Winnipeg Centre) would provide working men and women with greater protection against loss and the real opportunity to recover what they are owed. Workers should be first on the list to recover their lost wages and pensions from the assets of a bankrupt employer, rather than last.
