Loblaws “announced today that this weekend, it will be ending the $2 per hour premium that it was paying to its workers.” This is ridiculous considering their profits have soared nearly 21% this quarter. These essential workers deserve better. #cdnpoli toronto.ctvnews.ca/loblaw-en…

"The pandemic is not over. The danger has not passed. These workers are no less at risk and are no less essential today than they were yesterday. There is no justification for ending pandemic pay now, or ever," the union president said. toronto.ctvnews.ca/loblaw-is…

"Sometimes it's easier to talk to strangers about my caregiving responsibilities than to my friends." quoting @EmilyChiara, young carer. This needs to change! Thanks @CBCKW891 and @craignorriscbc for raising awareness for #youngcarers and #caregivers. cbc.ca/listen/shows/the-morn…

22% of young carers provide care support for those diagnosed with Alzheimer’s or dementia. Waterloo resident @EmilyChiara's experience of caring for her mother who has dementia was featured in a documentary "Much Too Young" goo.gl/U5s41w (4/8)
