“If you talk less, you’ll make more money.” This describes the attitude of the bosses with regards to the workers’ demands. The workers at the textile manufacturer (Chabanel Street, at Sportscraft, and in Terrebonne) are the heroines of this video, whose images, sounds, and testimonials illustrate the terrible working conditions these women face every day. The video is an excellent informational tool.
