The MFL argues against the Pallister government's Bill to increase the power and influence of wealthy donors over democratic elections.
A strong MFL is more important now than ever before. Premier Brian Pallister has already passed a law that makes it more difficult to join a union; undermined the collective bargaining process; and made cuts to public services – like healthcare and education – and laid-off workers.
