Check out Chapter 5 "Practicing Solidarity Unionism" of Daniel Gross and Staughton Lynd's Labour Law for the Rank and Filer: Building solidarity while staying clear of the law.
"In solidarity unionism, workers themselves carry out their own organizing. There are three fundamental principles: 1. Rank-and-filer control; 2. Direct Action; 3. Members carry their union membership with them, regardless of majority status, when they move on to other jobs (particularly important in high turnover sectors like retail or food service)." pg.73

Now we just need a Canadian version of this, provincially perhaps!
We will collectively confront specific grievances or problems that arise in our workplaces in Vancouver. Jobs like ours (gendered/low income/service industry labour) are the ones that allow these empires to exist and expand. We are currently running an industry wide call out to all sympathetic coffee shop workers. We work with "direct unionism" principles and IWW tactics.
