Steelworkers Say Stop Toxic International Trade Deals: Union to Leaflet Public Outside David Emerson's Constituency Office
VANCOUVER - As more toxic products have been recalled from the Canadian marketplace, the United Steelworkers (USW) is calling on the federal government to halt Toxic International Traded deals and get tough with companies that import toxic goods into Canada.
Prime Minister Stephen Harper has promised new laws to protect Canadian
consumers from being exposed to toxic products. But The USW says Harper and
International Trade Minister David Emerson have missed the point. Unregulated
international trade agreements negotiated by the Canadian government have not
ensured that children and families are protected from toxic toys, foods and
other goods
Today USW members will leaflet the public outside Emerson's constituency office starting at 11 a.m.
