The Rogers family are billionaires in Toronto. They own Rogers. After Ted Rogers wife died, there was a massive layoff of thousands of temp agency workers inside their Toronto and Vaughan Warehouses. This is despite Rogers stock increasing in the past few months before the mass layoffs.

Rogers is one of Canada's largest telecom companies, and they operate two warehouses in the GTA where they hire mainly temp agency staff to deal with their electronics that are shipped to customers, or the returns that get sent with needles and sharp objects inside which harm the temp agency workers rather than the elites.

Did you know that the owner, the late Ted Rogers advocated for the temp workers to be unionized and be put on the company payroll? This was a decade before he passed away.

Well, his son is totally different, and the Mayor of Toronto John Tory appear to act in the interest of corporate Bay Street. They started to hire only temp staff at their warehouses and the temp agency paid them minimum wage.

In those warehouses, there were mainly newcomers who were working for minimum wage, while one or two staff were unionized. The temp staff were always promised to be hired perm, but that never happened.

They were loyal staff I heard. They thought of the Toronto warehouse as a family. They were glad to work there.

Then one day, there was a meeting, and the company was laying off every temp staff they had in Toronto and Vaughan. They had a hard time with the union who successfully got the unionized staff to remain on the payroll.

The rich get richer in Toronto while the working class get poorer.
