The labor unions disagree, arguing that it gives the government consequential new powers to intervene in strikes and goes against the right to strike.

CUPE 139 President Mike Turgeon says the health care cuts will have consequences for vulnerable people in our community, particularly mental health and senior patients who have greater needs.
