Background

We think public transport strikes on shouldn't be able to shut down the service entirely. We want minimum service level of 30% for people to attend their commitments of work, school, medical appointments, etc. This should be established by law, like it is for some other public services.

Additional details

While we do respect the right for any worker to demand better conditions and strike if necessary, We think there must be some limits on these strikes when it comes to public services. We believe it is unacceptable that it can be legal to close completely an important public service to achieve those demands. We think something needs to change.
