    • Abstract:
      The article discusses several issues regarding Canada's working class, described as once undervalued and politically silent group, and their efforts to fight back during the COVID-19 pandemic. Topics covered include why the working class and their interests do not get much attention, the debate over paid sick leave and how social inequality has become more evident during the pandemic.
