Budget 2025 misses the mark: Workers demand real action

November 24, 2025 at 8:04 am  Labour

OTTAWA—Tomorrow, more than 300 workers from all over Canada will descend on Parliament hill in Ottawa for the Canadian Labour Congress’s national Lobby Day.

Workers will be meeting with MPs to push for concrete action on affordability, health care, trade and tariffs, and rebuilding strong public services. CLC President Bea Bruske will outline how the federal government’s 2025 budget failed to address the daily realities facing workers and what working people are demanding instead.

“Budget 2025 leaves workers behind. It ignores the crushing cost of living, the cracks in our public services, and the strain on frontline workers who keep this country running. Workers showed up today because this government didn’t. We’re here to demand a plan that actually puts working people first.”–Bea Bruske, CLC President

WHAT: Budget 2025’s failure to support working families
WHEN: Monday, November 24, at 6:15 PM ET
WHERE: Rogers Centre, Ottawa (55 Colonel By Drive), Trillium Room
WHO: Bea Bruske—President, Canadian Labour Congress (CLC)
