Despite one of the highest rates of low-wage work in the West, Canada is home to a strong and storied labor movement. Rising Up traces the history of living wage activism in Canada and its battle against broken trade unions and dismantled safety nets. In a labor market characterized by inequality, instability, and austerity, the authors contend, the living wage movement must play a central role in our plans for a more equitable future.
