A CUPE representative is coming under fire after posting a YouTube video comparing Prime Minister Stephen Harper to Adolf Hitler.
Humberto Dasilva called on Canadians to stand up to the government or else “They should shut and wait for their boxcar” referencing the Holocaust.
The video was a response to bill C-377 proposing unions should be forced to disclose spending information to their membership and the public.
Tory MP Pierre Poilievre calls the contents of the video disgusting and says they have no place in our society.
Ex-CUPE employee, NDP MP Alexandre Boulerice, tells The Calgary Sun the video is ridiculous and will derail the discussion that really needs to be had about the bill.
