Demonstrators accuse Amazon of union-busting at rally in Montreal, call for boycott
February 15, 2025
Demonstrators gathered in Montreal Saturday to protest Amazon’s decision to shutter its seven warehouses in Quebec and lay off workers, including at what was Canada’s only unionized Amazon facility.

Félix Trudeau, who represented the now laid-off workers at the unionized warehouse in Laval, Que., urged the public to take a stand against the company.

Commute-grinding construction began in earnest about a decade ago, resulting in partial closings that have slowed traffic and exhausted local residents and people travelling to and from New Brunswick’s northeast, who are left with only one other crossing nearby.
