The new Democratic deputy Charlie Angus is asking a consumer boycott throughout the Amazon country to protest the closure of the online retail giant of seven of his warehouses in Quebec.
The closures have eliminated thousands of permanent jobs full time, along with work in subcontracting suppliers.
Angus and La Unión officials, including Félix Trudeau, president of the Unión de Laval, who., Amazon Warehouse, say that Amazon should pay the appropriate compensation to the fired.
They also say that the federal government should cancel all contracts with the Amazon CEO of multimillionaire Jeff Bezos and force his company to pay any federal subsidy.
In the light of the current labor dispute between Amazon and the workers in Quebec, the NDP deputy Charlie Angus is asking Canadians to support a national boycott of the company, including the cancellation of government contracts. Angus also accused Amazon’s owner, Jeff Bezos, of ‘fun’ of Canada selling ’51 ° state ‘goods related to ongoing comments on Canada by Donald Trump.
Approximately 230 Amazon employees in Laval Unioned last May, the first impulse of successful unionization in a Amazon operation in Canada.
Amazon has dismissed the statements that closures are connected to the unionization unit and insists that it is about increasing efficiency.
