Two related stories are posted here, \u201cMinimum Wage Wars: Wal-Mart Canada<\/span>\u201d & \u201cWal-Mart employee fired after reporting dog in hot truck<\/span>\u201c. (( Wal-Mart Canada seems to be a little more careful about doing things that generate bad publicity than Wal-Mart in the USA. Canadians hear the rumours that Wal-Mart supervisors and Managers order employees to punch off the clock and get back to work and tell me, \u2018Maybe that\u2019s just one or two supervisors in one or two stores in the states, they couldn\u2019t be like that up here-\u2018 but then Wal-Mart Canada just lost a huge lawsuit and have been ordered to pay quite a bit for closing down a store in Quebec after its employees voted to become unionized. )) (( &\u00a0 Canadians might be more vigilant in defending their privacy rights than most U.S. citizens )) }<\/p>\n Firefighter\u2019s family links suicide to PTSD, files for workers\u2019 compensation<\/span>\u00a0\u00a0 { The firefighter was never officially diagnosed with PTSD. This happened in Edmonton, Alberta,where\u00a0 an Alberta law was passed in 2012 that says first responders diagnosed with PTSD do not have to prove that the condition was job related to get workers\u2019 compensation. His family members believe that an incident he responded to in which \u2018a little guy drowned\u2019 at a public swimming pool was a turning point and may have led directly to his suicide.
