UN Branch Criticizes Quebec for Labour Rights Violation

The International Labour Organization, a branch of the United Nations, has criticized the Quebec government for its passage of bill 43, which is in violation of international labour standards. Read about the ILO decision here.

I found this section of the CSN's media release most interesting where Quebec's sovereignist labour movement explains that Quebec should live up to international labour standards that were negotiated by Canada...

Selon le BIT, le projet de loi 142 (devenu loi 43), adopté sous le bâillon en décembre 2005, va à l’encontre des conventions internationales du travail dont le Canada et, par conséquent, le Québec sont signataires.
