Your Home, Your Vote: NDP shows solidarity at steelworkers picket

First Published:

Hamilton’s three NDP members of parliament came to show their support to some 900 locked-out U.S. Steel workers in an informal rally on the picket line.


The meeting comes as the New Democrats continue to surge in today’s polls.
And some workers hope it’s the New Democrats who can help to solve the ongoing battle between the workers and their American owners.
Cristina Tenaglia reports.
