1:54The details of the sick leave changes haven't been released yet, but Singh said the change "will help millions of Canadians." "Today marks the first step in achieving the first ever, in the history of our country, federal paid sick leave for Canadian workers," he said"It's a first step toward our ultimate goal of insuring all Canadian workers have paid sick leave now and forever." Liberal House Leader Pablo Rodriquez tweeted this afternoon that a deal has been reached, but didn't offer any more details about the sick leave changes. NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh talks to CBC Radio's The House about striking a deal with the Liberal government to ensure greater access to paid sick leave. Bill C-2 provides for a 10-day sick leave benefit — something the NDP had demanded — but on Thursday Singh said he still had concerns about how accessible the paid sick leave would be.
