A new group called Working Canadians blames unions for higher deficits, higher taxes, higher unemployment and making it harder for people in Ontario to get ahead. The group has launched a campaign to fight back against what it calls "union power ".

Open lines with Catherine Swift, chair of the Canadian Federation of Independent Business and spokesperson for Working Canadians. The group is funded by individual donations, small business and Merit Canada, which lobbies for "open shop" construction companies where union membership and dues are optional.
