The dramatic decline in the number of secure, well-paying jobs – and the crushing impact this has on the lives of millions of Canadian workers – is a subject that deserves far more attention. This important, well-researched book unveils the scope of the assault on workers’ rights and shows a path to resisting it. Rising Up makes a compelling case for supporting the “living wage movement,” which demands that employers be made to pay not just the minimum wage but a wage that provides working people some degree of financial well-being and security.

- Linda McQuaig, author of The Sport and Prey of Capitalists: How the Rich are Stealing Canada’s Public Wealth
