Starbucks isn't covered by this bill.
Parts of Amazon would be, but not all of it.

I think this is more a matter of they can't instead of they won't - i.e. they can only impose rules on industries that they have legislation in place to regulate. This should mean though, that if legislation were introduced to increase the number of federally regulated industries, that those would automatically fall under this bill as well.
They could add it to the actual labour code instead of making it standalone. Anything in the federal code becomes the baseline for provincial labour code. For example, every provincially regulated industry must provide at least 1/26 annual earnings as vacation pay, because it's not legal to write a provincial code that is "less than" the federal code. Provinces like SK have bumped that to 3/52 for their provincially regulated industries, but cannot choose to reduce it below 1/26.
Christ, I can already hear the screeching fascists in Alberta and Sask about this thought already.
Don't remind me. I live in SK. We're not all wacky, but sometimes it feels that way.
TIL. Yeah, if it's just those industries that's pretty weaksauce. I guess at least it would be the courts deciding now instead of some anti-union government.
