Today we mark the National Day of Mourning, when we remember and honour workers who have been killed, injured or suffered illness due to workplace-related hazards and occupational exposures. Please, take a moment today to reflect on the importance of unions and their historic role in protecting workers and labour rights.

Today is the International Day of Pink, recognized in Canada and around the world as the day to raise awareness against bullying, discrimination, transphobia and transmisogyny in workplaces, schools and communities.

Today is International Women’s Day, a global day celebrating the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women. Today and every day we must fight bias, stereotypes, and discrimination and #EmbraceEquity.
