CAW

Bank of Canada governor Mark Carney was the first Canadian central banker to speak in front of the country’s auto workers today. Here’s the text of the speech he delivered to the Canadian Auto Workers union’s annual conference in Toronto:

The CAW president has apparently re-joined the NDP for the purposes of endorsing Peggy Nash. He’d already signalled his support four months ago when Ms. Nash launched her campaign. Ms. Nash previously worked for the union as an assistant to Mr. Lewenza.

While Pat Martin invokes the Rapture, the president of the Canadian Auto Workers endorses an NDP-Liberal merger.

The NDP leader passed away at his home early this morning

The real power structure in the party comes from organized labour

The CAW has picked 50 ridings. The Conservative are focused on 30.

Joe Comartin advocates for sports gambling.
