OTTAWA — More a dozen labour leaders are endorsing the NDP candidate in an upcoming federal byelection in Winnipeg, including the business manager of the Conservative candidate's own union.
The endorsements are part of the New Democrats' efforts to maintain their stronghold in the riding of Elmwood-Transcona, where the parties are vying for support from union workers. The Conservative candidate Colin Reynolds has campaigned on the idea that the NDP does not represent union workers like him.
The NDP candidate Leila Dance received endorsements today from the Canadian Labour Congress, Manitoba Federation of Labour, and the Winnipeg Labour Council. Among those throwing their support behind the NDP is Dave McPhail, the business manager of the electrical worker union IBEW Local 2085, of which Reynolds says he is a proud member.This report by The Canadian Press was first published Aug. 1, 2024.
