Ken Georgetti and Hassan Yussuff

Hassan Yussuff: Hassan Yussuff defeated the long-serving Ken Georgetti in a vote at a week-long CLC convention that ended Friday, according to Times Colonist. "I think the prime minister needs to know that this labour movement is not going to sit idly by anymore and watch him continue to destroy the things that we've worked so hard to build in this country," Yussuff told The Canadian Press on Friday and The new tough-talking president of the Canadian Labour Congress has served notice he won't go easy on Prime Minister Stephen Harper and will be more aggressive than his predecessor. Yussuff warned that Harper will face the fury of the union movement if it feels forced to push back against Conservative policy. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
