Why this petition matters

Started by Karen Tompkins

Recently, Bell Canada received $122million in wage subsidies through the Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy (CEWS).  downup.io   During the same timeframe, BCE (previously Bell Canada Enterprises) increased its shareholder's dividends  https://www.bce.ca/investors/dividend-history  Yet  Bell announced layoffs which were executed in early February.  Employees with top seniority were let go with one day's notice.  This is not just a local issue.  Cuts in Canadian programming will have long-term effects. CARTT.ca Commentary  

Do the research.  Take a stand. 

------------------------------------

WE THE UNDERSIGNED petition the Canadian Federal Government, under the leadership of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, to hold accountable all large Canadian corporations in utilizing the CEWS program funding for its original intent of keeping Canadians employed during the global struggle with COVID-19.
