OTTAWA–(BUSINESS WIRE)–CUPE, Canada’s largest union, says the 2026 federal budget is the next step in selling what Canadians have built over generations to billionaire investors. The result: cuts to jobs and vital public services that workers and their families depend on. Letting private investors profit from public services like health care and from infrastructure like airports makes life harder and less affordable for workers, and leaves Canada unprepared for the economic challenges ahead.
