    ATU Canada and ATU 113 to Hold Press Conference to Address National Crisis in Driver Assaults
    
  
    

  
  
    

    
  
      
  
  
    
    
    
    
    
          
    ATU Canada and ATU 113 is holding a press conference this Wednesday to address the lack of action in regard to the national crisis of transit operator assaults. The transit union is calling on all three levels of government to come to the table to work with them on a National Framework to tackle assaults as well as things like: implementations of reporting and tracking systems to identify the real number of assaults, de-escalation training, increased vigilance, recognition from employers that an assault is a critical injury and the court system to utilize Bill S-221 as a deterrent.
    
      
    

    
  
    

  
  
    

    
  
    

    

    
  
    
  
    
    

    
        
    
  
    
    
    
  
      
  
  
    
    
    
    
    
          
    

    
      
    

    
  
    

  
  
    

    
  
      
  
  
    
    
    ATU Canada encouraged by federal emergency transit funding announcement but says needs to be permanent
    
  
    

  
  
    

    
  
      
  
  
    
    
    
    
    
          
    OTTAWA - ATU Canada is encouraged by the announcement of $750 million in emergency transit funding made yesterday by Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland but calls this a “band aid solution” and says more is needed for future funding crises likely to face public transit. The announcement came with two caveats; however, that provinces match the federal funding and that they work with cities more quickly to increase housing supply.

We need a public option.? ?We demand the establishment of a national public intercity transit service as part of a Green New Deal for social, economic and environmental justice and tangible reconciliation with Indigenous peoples.?

    Today's Budget Needs a Promise for Emergency Transit Operational Funding, Our Cities are Depending on it
    
  
    

  
  
    

    
  
      
  
  
    
    
    
    
    
          
    We have been encouraged to see government announcements in support of transit -- notably the $14.9 billion pledged towards capital projects over eight years but a budget that is focused on an equtiable post-pandemic recovery must focus on providing emergency funding for public transit.

    March 8th is International Women’s Day, a day to celebrate women’s achievements and take collective action for equality. The UN-recognized event was born of women organizing in the labour, socialist, and peace movements. ATU Canada recognizes the important strides made by ATU members to bring dignity to their working environment and fight for equality in their communities. 
    
      
    

    
  
    

  
  
    

    
  
    

    

    
  
    
  
    
    

    
        
    
  
    
    
    
  
      
  
  
    
    
    
    
    
          
    

    
      
    

    
  
    

  
  
    

    
  
      
  
  
    
    
    Electric Buses: Battleground for the Just Transition (Part 1)
    
  
    

  
  
    

    
  
      
  
  
    
    
    
    
    
          
    Canadian public transit is entering a new era of propulsion, transitioning from diesel-fueled buses to smooth-running, practically silent, low-emission battery electric buses (BEBs). Some transit history buffs will be quick to point out that many forms of transit, including the trolley buses of Toronto, were once fueled by electricity, so this is merely a return to simpler days. However, the scale of this transition is going to be truly unique in Canadian public transit history.

      Juneteenth is a federal holiday in the United States commemorating the emancipation of African-American slaves. It is also often observed for celebrating African-American culture. Originating in Galveston, Texas, it has been celebrated annually on June 19 in various parts of the United States since 1865. The holiday is now starting to be recognized in Canada as well because of our history of slavery.
