Under the Conservatives' watch, thousands of interns have been left without basic workplace protection. After finally committing in the budget to take action to protect interns, Conservatives then voted against my private member's bill, the intern protection act.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4062281\" data-originallang=\"en\">Why are handouts to the wealthy few put on the fast track while rights for vulnerable workers are put on the backburner?</p>",

Sous la gouvernance des conservateurs, des milliers de stagiaires se sont ainsi retrouv\u00e9s sans protection de base au travail. Apr\u00e8s s'\u00eatre enfin engag\u00e9s, dans le budget, \u00e0 prendre des mesures pour prot\u00e9ger les stagiaires, les conservateurs ont vot\u00e9 contre mon projet de loi d'initiative parlementaire, la Loi sur la protection des stagiaires.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"4062281\" data-originallang=\"en\">Pourquoi les cadeaux \u00e0 la minorit\u00e9 de riches sont-ils trait\u00e9s en priorit\u00e9 pendant que les droits des travailleurs vuln\u00e9rables sont mis en veilleuse?</p>"
