Is there a Canadian (or ideally an international) org similar to this? Remote work is global. I’ve worked with two fully remote companies in the past three years and my colleages are literally everywhere. I’ve seen mass layoffs personally, followed by onboarding thousands of contractors in the Philippines and Southeast Asia. We all know remote workers in less developed regions are training the AI being deployed. and moderating our content. Etc etc.

Would love to see this labor movement go global. Remote work is connected and networked, inherently. I don’t know if I’ll see a global workers movement in my lifetime but I fucking hope I do (I’m pretty old).
