November 5 Rallies and Information Pickets

Stand with Alberta Health Care Workers

The walkouts at hospitals and health care centres by members of the Alberta Union of Provincial Employees on October 26 have been met with a tremendous wave of support right across the province. The demands of the workers to stop the 11,000 layoffs the Alberta government has announced, and to reverse and stop further privatization, are receiving widespread support, while the government’s attacks on the workers are being met with utter contempt. Many people are also calling on Alberta Health Services to stop its threats to punish the workers.
Since October 27, seniors have organized daily information pickets in front of the Foothills Hospital in Calgary. On November 5 the unions and associations of faculty and staff in post-secondary education are organizing information pickets in Edmonton and Athabasca. Pickets are also being organized for 6:15 am at two hospitals, one in Edmonton and one in Calgary, to greet the first shift as they come to work.
