Canada Demands We End Right to Work

This is rich. Canada wants us to do away with right to work states:

Canadian negotiators spent Sunday’s talks in Mexico City trying to persuade their U.S. counterparts to pass a federal law negating the right-to-work laws that now prevail in 28 U.S. states.

The Canadians argue that these laws, by reducing the power of unions to compel dues from workers, mean weaker unions, lower labor standards and reduced wages. This in turn means that when it comes to attracting business, these U.S. states enjoy an unfair advantage over the higher-cost Canadians.

A clue for the Canucks: your problem isn’t that Americans are free to escape unions my moving to low-unemployment right to work states. Your problem is that Canadians are not.
