An Abacus poll on the dispute between the Ontario government and education workers last year showed more Ontarians blamed the government, not workers, for the dispute.
According to analytics firm Gallup, U.S. approval of unions is at its highest point in more than 50 years.
But support for the high-profile Metro strike illustrated that union messaging is hitting home for many Canadians, he said: “There’s been a public spotlight on the profits of the grocery sector and the fact that food price inflation continues to outstrip overall inflation. So there’s something really kind of visceral and personal about that.”Labour experts in Canada usually have to rely on polls about individual labour disputes to gauge public sentiment, and these vary, said Savage.
But in more recent polls on individual disputes, Savage said he’s been surprised by the level of support. Bea Bruske, president of the Canadian Labour Congress, said she’s also noticed a shift at picket lines and rallies across the country.“The level of public support and understanding of the need to strike … is higher than it’s been in many, many years,” she said.
It also helps send a message to the employer amid negotiations, said Moceri: “I think they knew we were in this for the long haul.”
