NOTICE PAPER
NOTICE OF MOTION FOR THE NEXT THURSDAY OF PRIVATE MEMBERS' BUSINESS:
PROPOSED RESOLUTION:
Mr. LINDSEY – Calling Upon the Provincial Government to Respect Working Manitobans
16. WHEREAS Manitoba’s skilled workers deserve a government that will respect their rights and protect their health and safety both on and off the job; and
WHEREAS the Provincial Government has repeatedly disrespected workers and their rights through regressive legislation, excessive layoffs, and unconstitutional wage freezes; and
WHEREAS the Provincial Government’s Bill 16 – The Labour Relations Amendment Act, will make it easier for unions to be decertified and for employers to punish employees who participate in job action; and
WHEREAS the Provincial Government continues to interfere in labour negotiations and freeze wages even though its Bill 28 – The Public Services Sustainability Act, was deemed unconstitutional and draconian; and
WHEREAS the Provincial Government threatened layoffs of hundreds of Manitoba Hydro workers, forced unpaid days off, then demanded their wages be frozen; and
WHEREAS the Premier and his government have repeatedly interfered in labour negotiations with teachers, bus drivers, hydro workers and nurses, leading to strikes at the University of Manitoba, Winnipeg
WHEREAS the Provincial Government repealed the one to one ratio, meaning the loss of good jobs, less supervision and more risk for apprentices on the job; and
WHEREAS Bill 55 – The Reducing Red Tape and Improving Services Act, 2021, currently before the house repeals The Apprenticeship Employment Opportunities Act (Public Works Contracts), which ensured apprentices can get work experience on public projects; and
WHEREAS the Provincial Government has a plan to undermine The Construction Industry Wages Act, an Act that ensures skilled tradespeople are properly paid.
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Legislative Assembly of Manitoba urge the Provincial Government to immediately withdraw all of its anti-labour legislative agenda and reinstate the one to one apprenticeship ratio.
