Walmart and Home Depot do this as well with a smock/vest/apron as the uniform. I think it is reasonable. The other thing that might be called out is PPE like safety boots, which some employers will voluntarily pay for but is not required.

I'm not convinced. I used to have to wear business formal, and it was largely clothes I would not buy but to wear to this job. It felt very much like a uniform. Does your opinion change if the workers being told to wear a certain dress code are relatively low paid?

John Tory is a pretty tired name. Is there really no one more compelling that the Liberals could put forth?

Nic Laporte posted a video discussing beg buttons, signal timings, automated detection etc with examples from Vancouver and NL.

Large items like that are typically delivered by the retailer. Not many people using pickups to pick up TVs or ellipticals from Best Buy at the Eaton Centre.

I would not be entirely surprised if Carney goes early if the polling is favourable, and before Trump leaves office, to have a 4 year runway to get some big things done. I would worry that doing things without buy-in toward the end of the mandate is a recipe for the Conservatives to come in and...

Isn't this a crazy idea? This would give a rather inordinate amount of power to the union to exact whatever demands they wish. Unions don't operate in the public interest. They are out for union leadership first and foremost, then as a consequence union membership. The public be damned.

I don't think it's going to gain traction.

NDP MP Alexandre Boulerice (Rosemont—LaPetite-Patrie) remains critic for Environment and Climate Change, Labour, Transport, Official Languages, and Quebec and Ontario Economic Development. for now...

I have not seen MMIWG added to the LGBT grouping in the wild. They are rather different things, I think.

Is it just about not wanting to deal with the political fallout of removing lanes on Yonge?

I've taken them on peak. It was faster to drive to Clarkson.

I don't consider GO buses to Union to be good service. MCC has no heavy rail connection or prospects for same, without very high cost and mediocre subway extensions. At the least, MCC should have been oriented toward Hurontario instead of a 1-2 km away from it. The whole Line 10 loop/wye...
