TORONTO, Jan. 26, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- On Monday, January 27, 2025, at 10:00 a.m., over 30 labour leaders from Ontario's private, public, and trades sectors will hold a press conference calling on Premier Doug Ford to establish an "All Hands-on-Deck for Every Ontario Worker” Tariff Taskforce to safeguard hundreds of thousands of Ontario jobs instead of destabilizing the province by moving the government into caretaker mode.

The Ontario Federation of Labour (OFL) has already launched consultations with labour leaders from all sectors of the economy. At the press conference, the OFL will outline necessary actions to respond to the tariff crisis.

Labour leaders representing workers across Ontario's economy will be available for questions following the press conference.
