The Canadian Federation of Nurses Unions stands in solidarity with the 15,000 New York City nurses now in their second week of striking. For months, nurses in NYC have been bargaining for fair contracts that would include enforceable staffing ratios, guaranteed health care benefits for frontline nurses, and protections from workplace violence. Nurses across Canada know this fight all too well. Nurse and patient safety go hand in hand. Canada’s nurses stand with the New York State Nurses Association nurses in NYC as they fight for the safety and dignity that nurses and their patients deserve.
