She has also blogged about the online campaign to keep the plant alive. Here's the latest on the effort of their union,UNITE HERE, to save the plant.

UNITE HERE launches campaign and $1,000 contest to save factory
Workers at the Golden Brand suit factory in Montreal have launched a campaign to stop Moores and its US parent company The Men’s Wearhouse from shutting down their factory, eliminating 540 good jobs. The workers, represented by UNITE HERE, are urging customers not to rent wedding or graduation apparel from Men’s Wearhouse, MW Tux or Moores.
Moreover, they are offering $500 prizes in an eco-friendly and fair trade bridal contest and prom contest.
