The Working Canadians campaign comes at a time when Tory leader Tim Hudak is planning to change Ontario's labour laws to make union membership optional.

Swift was Ontario Today's guest on Thursday, where we asked whether unions standing in your way at work, or if they've helped you thrive.

Swift took part in live chat afterwards, which you can check out below.
