A Labourstart Campaign
Workers at the Port of Vancouver, Washington, USA have been locked out by their employer, Japanese conglomerate Mitsui-United Grain, since February 27, 2013.
The International Transport Workers Federation (ITF) believes the lockout is an anti-union attack and an attempt to avoid negotiating with workers in good faith over their collective bargaining agreement.
The workers' latest agreement expired in September 2012 leaving them without a contract and open to abuse by their employer which has now taken extreme and aggressive action.
We've been asked by the ITF to help flood the employer with messages demanding that they end the lockout.
Please take 60 seconds of your time to show your solidarity with the workers:
