Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney's economic overhaul, aimed at reducing reliance on the US and attracting investment, faces strong opposition from unions. The proposed Bill C-39, or the Building Canada Strong Act, would grant Ottawa clearer powers to intervene in legal strikes and lockouts in federally regulated workplaces, a move unions argue would weaken workers' right to strike. Canada's largest unions, including the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE), have vowed to defy the bill's proposed limits if it passes without amendments. Critics accuse Carney of leveraging the economic threat from the US to push through unpopular measures.
