More than 85 people gathered at Liberal MP Matt DeCourcey’s office in downtown Fredericton to show support for the right of postal workers to strike on Saturday afternoon, Dec. 1. DeCourcey was one of the MLAs who voted for the unconstitutional back to work legislation. Liberal MP for Saint John, Wayne Long, did not vote in favor of the legislation. 

Watch Alex Bailey lead the crowd in singing, “All I want for Christmas is the right to strike,” here.
