Toronto, – Working Canadians has launched a new campaign to publicize the costly and unfair policies of governments that favour unionized companies over their non-unionized counterparts in the granting of contracts to participate in government infrastructure contracts. This closed bidding process means that taxpayers end up paying significantly more for infrastructure than necessary, and that many legitimate, capable, taxpaying businesses are excluded from bidding on government projects that their tax dollars pay for. “In these difficult times when governments are already deep in debt and taxpayer dollars are scarce, it is disgraceful that governments continue to pursue these costly and unfair policies,” said Catherine Swift, President of Working Canadians.
