A third of Canada’s public servants have set up pickets at hundreds of sites across the country, demanding cost-of-living raises and telework flexibility in one of the largest strikes in the nation’s history. More than 155,000 public servants went on what their union termed a “historic strike” on Wednesday, hitting picket lines at more than 250 locations across the country, blowing whistles and waving placards that read “Support the public service” and “Stop outsourcing.”
