Right to unionize and to bargain collectively

Resolution number:
2
November 2014
Whereas:
- The freedom of association and the right to collective bargaining are internationally recognized as fundamental principles and rights in the workplace;
- Some jurisdictions in Canada effectively prevent workers from unionizing or collectively bargaining based on their immigration status or sector of employment;
Therefore be it resolved:
that the CCR advocate that all workers, regardless of sector of employment or immigration status in Canada, have the right to unionize and to bargain collectively.
