113569-2 CDCO-Bill66Book.indd 6 5/30/19 4:27 PM CALL TO 7 ACTION

We urge all members to call their local municipal councillor and let them know that you do not support Bill 66 and urge employers impacted through Bill 66 to not opt out of the current collective agreements in place. Call Your Municipal Councillor to Let Them Know Bill 66: Threatens Public Safety: Bill 66 prioritizes cutting ‘red tape’ around planning approvals for business rather than safety of Ontario’s residents. If Bill 66 is implemented, key public safety protections will be removed.

Dissolve Collective Agreements: Our longstanding Collective Agreements will be dissolved through Bill 66. Many agreements have been in place for generations.

Fuel the Underground Economy: The Bill opens up bidding to contractors who have the freedom to ut the improperly hire their workers as sub-contractors rather than as employees. ) ) of We have included maps and contact information for you to reference within this brochure for the City of or the Toronto, City of Hamilton and Region of Waterloo Municipal Council. s y Bill PLEASE USE THIS INFORMATION AND MAKE THE CALL TODAY! FIGHTING FALSE NEWS ABOUT CONSTRUCTION COSTS

Some Conservative politicians and their allies in the Most importantly, as the City of Toronto study clearly right-wing media claim that ripping-up our collective states, just because non-union contractors pay their agreements will save municipalities and school boards workers less doesn’t mean that their customers actually hundreds of millions of dollars by allowing our work to be save any money. If that was true then unionized done by non-union contractors. They regularly state that companies would never be the successful bidder any of non-union construction costs would be 20 to 40% cheaper. the vast majority of municipal work which isn’t covered by There is no evidence that these outrageous claims are true any subcontracting clauses. The simple fact is unionized and it’s time to respond to this false news head-on. workers are more efficient workers because of things like their better training and superior safety. The one major study which actually looks at the facts was done by the City of Toronto itself. That study found that Unionized contractors and unionized workers get projects there just aren’t major savings to be had by going non- done on-time and on-budget. That is proven real value union. The conclusion was when all the relevant factors for money and it’s about time that people stopped making were taken into account (like the percentage of a contract claims without any hard evidence about how much money price which actually relates to labour costs and the they think can saved by ending collective agreements and requirements of fair wage policies), the very best that the attempting to lower workers’ wages. City could hope to save would be 1.7% of its overall costs. For more info, check out the "Just Not Credible" report on the Ontario Construction Secretariat website ~ iciconstruction.com
