Over 3000 USW members (now part of Workers Uniting) comrades are currently engaged in a protracted strike in Canada.
They are defending their pensions and other benefits against an attack by the greedy Brazilian owned multinational that owns the mine they work in.
It's the biggest and most profitable nickel mine in the world, but the employer wants to impose third world wages and conditions on all their workforce. Vale workers in Brazil are supporting the action because they know unless the best organised remain strong they will have no chance of achieving the improvements on wages and pensions they hope for in their country.
Workers Uniting and Unite are actively supporting the strikers.
To this end two USW comrades are travelling from Canada on to demonstrate outside an investors conference in the city of London on Monday 9th November, where Vale Inco representatives are making a presentation to shareholders.
The intention is to demonstarte support for our comrades in struggle, to put pressure on the company, to disrupt their relationships with their investors and demonstrate the reach of the global union.
You can help strike a blow against the global fat cats by joining the Vale Inco strikers and picket at
