This #BlackHistoryMonth, Canada’s unions are calling for an end to environmental racism. Black communities face high exposure to pollution and climate change is making it worse. Add your voice and sign the letter. Climate justice is racial justice. https://t.co/Dm3R8pgT1G

Violence and Harassment should never be “just part of the job”. Everyone deserves to be safe at work.

Today, we honour the 14 women whose lives were stolen at l’École Polytechnique.

Their memory calls us to confront the violence that still impacts women and gender-diverse workers every day and to demand better. #EndGBV #16Days

[OFL @OFLabour]

Today, we remember the 14 women murdered at Montréal’s École Polytechnique on December 6, 1989, targeted simply because they were women. We honour their memory and the countless women, girls, and gender-diverse people who have experienced violence in their homes, workplaces, and communities.

[Elementary Educators @ETFOeducators]

Violence in any form is never acceptable. Together, we must educate and take action to end all gender-based violence.
Make a start online with the UN's “UNiTE to End Digital Violence against All Women and Girls” because there is #NoExcuse for online abuse!

It's here!

Read the full #RightsDontRetire report now. It details why the #WSIB's arbitrary age 65 cut-off is out of touch with labour market realities and hurts all injured workers.

We’re getting started!

Workers from across Canada are in Ottawa today, training, planning, and powering up for tomorrow’s #CLCLobby Day on Parliament Hill.

Big energy. Big demands. Big day ahead.

[ONIWG @ONIWG]

Our #RightsDontRetire report launches tomorrow. Keep your eyes posted here to find out how you can help end age discrimination at the WSIB.

[CUPE Ontario @CUPEOntario]

We trust Ontario’s water because it’s public. It’s safe. It’s affordable.

And it’s accountable to the people — not to profit.

But Bills 60, 56, and 68 threaten to change that.

So CUPE Ontario has joined forces with the Council of Canadians, the Canadian Association of Physicians for the Environment (CAPE), ACORN Ontario, and Nature Ontario to launch the Keep Water Public coalition.

We’re standing up for Ontario’s water — and we need you with us.

[Unifor @UniforTheUnion]

Canada’s auto industry is under attack. Trump wants our jobs moved to the U.S.—and automakers are giving in. These jobs & communities are ours to protect. Join solidarity actions Oct. 29–30, 9–5, at Brampton or CAMI Assembly Plants. Come when you can, stand with workers. 🇨🇦 #canlab
