Summary
About 100 dockworker union delegates from Canada, the United States, Australia and New Zealand protested outside DP World’s Centerm terminal at the Port of Vancouver on September 23. After a summit in Vancouver, they said they support technology that improves safety but oppose automation and AI when used to cut jobs, outsource work, expand surveillance, weaken unions or lower safety standards.
