An employee will have the right to wear a poppy while on the job during Remembrance Week under legislative amendments to be introduced this week, the Toronto Sun has learned.
The move planned for Wednesday follows a decision by Whole Foods to block their staff from pinning the familiar red symbol of remembrance on their work uniforms in a blanket policy against political messaging.
On Friday morning, we sent out a press release that ruffled a few feathers.
The headline? “We’re one of Canada’s oldest conservative organizations, and Doug Ford and Brian Pallister are way out of line.”
We stand by that message even more so now — especially after the Premier of Ontario dropped the hammer on all small businesses, gyms, and restaurants in the GTA (without evidence of community spread), while continuing to allow the big box stores to flourish.
