We welcome the news that paragraph (a.1) of Schedule 2 of Reg. 84-20 has been repealed.

We look forward to meeting with Premier @susanholt and Health Minister John Dornan to discuss implementation and support for clinics like #Clinic554.

I just got home after 3 days with 350+ badass union feminists.

On behalf of @queermomentum, I want to share my gratitude for @UniforTheUnion’s support of our advocacy.

Queer & Labour movements are united, organized, & ready to make our voices heard in the next federal election.

"As I stand before you today, I am filled with hope for the future of our union and for all women in Canada.
Together, we have the power to continue the legacy of those who came before us." - @SamiaUnifor at @UniforWomen #Rise2024

"Nationally we see gender-based discrimination, precarious work, and systemic barriers continue to plague our workplaces and communities.
Only by centering the voices and experiences of women can we truly overcome."

[Unifor @UniforTheUnion]

"The fact that we’re here today, is a testament to the power of solidarity and sisterhood within our union. When I was new to the union, not sure what to expect, it was a game-changer seeing so many incredible women in one room" - @SamiaUnifor

"I’m sure some of you can relate when I say that I used to choose not to do things because I was afraid. Afraid to look silly, afraid that there was always someone better out there, and the biggest fear, what if I fail ...

[Unifor @UniforTheUnion]

"We need to work together to break down barriers, everyone in this room has a whole lot of hope that a better world is out there and we can see that through the work that we are doing, we are creating change around the world." - @JennMUnifor

[Unifor @UniforTheUnion]

"We can't bring you all to the @ITFglobalunion but we can bring the ITF to you!" @JennMUnifor "These sisters are outstanding at their activism and I am incredibly blessed to be able to work alongside of them as a fellow Vice Chair of the Women’s Committee."

[Unifor @UniforTheUnion]

"If they normalize this, they make it easier to come for workers’ rights, women’s rights, disability rights, and more."

[Unifor @UniforTheUnion]

"This is not an attack on trans people – this is an assault on all our fundamental rights and freedoms. Governments are using the notwithstanding clause to overwrite the rights of children."
