COP26 trundles on in Glasgow with little sign that anything significant is being agreed towards reversing global warming and ending the degradation of nature. Beneath all the media headlines, governments and corporations are not putting their money where their mouths are. The financial support for measures to reduce carbon emissions and other destruction of the environment is pitiful.

CUPE STATEMENT on the GNB press conference of 5 November:

Premier Higgs should listen to the health experts AND the front-line workers who are calling on him to settle the labour crisis in a quick, fair, legal and respectful manner. After years of leaving front-line workers without a fair deal, after years of ignoring the voices of thousands of front-line workers calling out for help, why does the Premier act surprised when his own inaction is worsening the crisis of his own making?
