The All Together Now! campaign has launched a new video, three new publications and the latest newsletter to help fight for tax fairness and quality public services.
Ottawa (25 Oct 2012) -The National Union of Public and General Employees (NUPGE) launched the All Together Now! campaign in 2010.
The goal is to change the national dialogue to recognize and address the problem of income inequality in Canada.
The campaign has developed and promoted an analysis of the causes and consequences of income inequality and four broad solutions:
- Respect for labour rights
- A modern industrial strategy
- Tax fairness
- Quality public services
We continue to develop new tools that all of us can use to promote this analysis.
We have a new animated video promoting the analysis.
We also have new publications on income inequality, new forms of privatization, and Right to Work laws.
Finally, you can read the latest campaign newsletter here.
Income inequality is now part of the national dialogue. But we've still got a lot more work to do to ensure governments take action to address this serious problem.
We hope you find these new tools helpful and encourage you to share them widely. Once again, thanks for all your support. All Together Now!
