This past summer Uber drivers in Victoria joined UFCW 1518 to become the first platform workers in Canada to formally unionize. And Amazon warehouse workers in Delta won union certification with Unifor Local 114, becoming the second Amazon facility in Canada to unionize and only the third in North America. We talk with Véronique Sioufi about what enabled these organizing victories, and what barriers this kind of worker organizing faces. Véronique Sioufi is racial equity researcher and policy analyst at the B.C. Society for Policy Solutions.
