Alberta has a working short crisis. Today, to commemorate May Day, we rallied in Edmonton, Red Deer, Calgary and Lethbridge, to demand the government invest in staffing or the crisis will worsen, wait   times will get longer and Albertans will suffer. Enough is enough! https://t.co/VRnJaWooSv

Today is May Day, or International Workers’ Day, observed in recognition of those who fought and continue to fight for workers’ rights. If you work an 8 hour day and if you get to enjoy weekends off, you can thank the anarchist workers who fought (and died) for those rights.
