The union that represents many of Ontario’s front line retail workers is slamming the Ford Government over plans it says will reduce statutory holidays from nine to three for that segment of the labour market.

This comes as as many major retailers are eliminating the $2.00 an hour pandemic pay bump that was announced in March.
