What Is the Workers’ Agenda — and Why Does It Matter for Alberta?

Developed by labour organizations and community partners, the Workers’ Agenda is a policy platform that focuses on building an economy that works for everyone. It highlights priorities such as good jobs, fair wages, affordable housing, strong public services, workplace safety and democratic accountability. In this presentation, the speaker will outline the key ideas behind the Workers’ Agenda and discuss how these proposals aim to address the economic challenges facing working people in Alberta today.
