Open Letter Asks Feds to Bail-Out Energy Workers Not Corporations

摘要

An open letter to Prime Minster Justin Trudeau is asking the federal government to allocate any reported bail-out funds to oil and gas sector workers and their families, instead of corporations. The signatures on the letter represent close to 1.3 million people in Canadian faith and labour groups, as well as several environmental organizations. "Giving billions of dollars to failing oil and gas companies will not help workers and only prolongs our reliance on fossil fuels," the letter reads.
