Opinion: While labour issues in the gig economy mostly focus on increasing protections for app-based workers like Uber and Lyft drivers, governments should pay attention to an equally important group of gig workers under attack — Canada’s performers.

Wendy Crewson is an award winning actress, producer and Canadian Screen Award recipient, who began her career on Canadian television. She has appeared in several Hollywood films and received critical acclaim for her robust body of work in film and television including “Saving Hope” and “Frankie Drake Mysteries.”
