After years of decline, the percentage of unionized workers is increasing again — and the pandemic is likely the reason

This is great news!

The difference compensation between a CEO and an average employee has gotten way out of line.

Canada: https://www.policyalternatives.ca/n...-pay-hits-second-highest-level-history-report

United States: https://www.cnbc.com/2021/09/15/in-2020-top-ceos-earned-351-times-more-than-the-typical-worker.html

Yes the CEO should make more. Yes different levels within a company should be paid accordingly. That does not mean exploiting people and being "pigs at the trough".

During the pandemic many lower income families were saved my the Canadian governments payments.
