7 years ago today,
@stephenharper@DenisLebelCIFQ@CPC_HQ’s deregulation facilitated the conditions to allow a 1-person train to blow up the town of#LacMegantic killing 47 people, destroying their families and the town’s soul. -
Eight years ago, 47 people lost their lives in the Lac-Mégantic tragedy. Since then, the Teamsters Union has continued to lobby the government to make the rail industry safer. Let us never forget Lac-Mégantic.

Now do health and worker safety comparables and construction failures. All sorts of people die when you cut red tape. You should know. Your government killed 49 people to save labour costs for rail companies.

After the private rail monopolies made
#LacMegantic inevitable, how can CN be allowed to undermine public & workplace safety like this? The#CNstrike is right and just. To hell with the company and strikebreaking politicians. http://teamstersrail.ca/Fatigued_Conductor.html …#canlab#cdnpoli#Teamsters -
Regulatory cooperation under
#NAFTA has eroded safety regulations - even after a disaster like the#LacMegantic oil train crash. Our new report shows how 'good regulatory practices' in trade deals threaten policies in the public interest. https://corporateeurope.org/en/2019/05/international-regulatory-cooperation-and-public-good …pic.twitter.com/vd3a9tVSnt

6 years ago today, a runaway train hauling crude oil derailed, killing 47 people & destroying the infrastructure of
#LacMégantic, QC. The town's reconstruction is ongoing & residents continue to suffer from#PTSD. Take time to remember the deadly disaster:https://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/lac-megantic-rail-disaster … -
You're going to see a lot of subtle propaganda from oil lobbyists today trying to use the Lac-Mégantic tragedy to push for unneeded pipelines.
#LacMégantic was due to Harper's cuts to rail safety + the oil was not from Alberta, it was US shale. https://thenarwhal.ca/how-spectre-oil-trains-deceptively-used-push-pipelines/ …#cdnpoli
