On April 19, 2023, the largest strikes of state and municipal service workers in the last 40 years took place in large Canadian cities. The protest was organized by one of the largest trade unions in the country - the Alliance of the Civil Service of Canada.
The protesters seek to index salaries by 4.5% per year over the next three years, and also oppose the adoption of a law on compulsory work.
In turn, the Treasury Council of Canada points out the need for employees to agree on a remote regime with the employer, and also comes only at a three percent indexation of salaries per year.
As a result of rallies of employees of municipal services in the country, the work of commercial seaports, the issuance of passports and visas, as well as the receipt of tax returns were disrupted.
