Thanks to historian and filmmaker Cheryl Foggo @cdfoggo for sharing stories of the Black Canadian experience in Alberta, with many migrating from the American south, and the lasting effects of racism and slavery. #PRC2023

#Unifor Skilled Trades Council Chair @dave_cassidy444 welcomes delegates from across trade sectors and regions of the country to the #SkilledTrades Bargaining and New Technology Conference.

[Len Poirier @len_poirier]

It was cold out, but the message was strong and united by the labour movement and allies alike. Healthcare is public and not for sale and no room for profits. Fund the hospitals so that staff and resources can be utilized to provide the services we need.

[Unifor @UniforTheUnion]

"To ensure the trades are not eroded because of labour shortages we all need to be part of making sure the trades is a place for everyone...because make no mistake, the pressure to water down the trades will grow as the shortages grow," @Lanampayne tells Skilled Trades delegates.

“Democracy truly depends on a vibrant and trusted press and it’s clear @postmedianet needs to invest in our communities," said @JulieKotsis, Unifor Media Council Chair, who is among the speakers at today's press conference in Windsor, addressing the Postmedia restructuring cuts.

Earlier this week I joined @lanampayne and @len_poirier to tour several jobsites where Unifor members work. We appreciated the hospitality and the opportunity to speak with rank-and-file members about their priorities. #bclab #canlab

[Unifor Local 468 @local468]

Thank you Rachel Blaney for taking the time to speak to us about issues important to workers. @local468 @IvanVasko750 @UniforTheUnion

[Unifor @UniforTheUnion]

#Unifor members are bringing workers' concerns directly to MPs, including the affordability crisis, anti-scab legislation, just transition and EI reform. @lanampayne also has a message for @bankofcanada Governor Tiff Macklem - end the class war against working people. #cdnpoli

[Unifor @UniforTheUnion]

Everyone deserves a good job, and working people deserve economic policies that meet their needs- @Lanampayne calls on the federal government to act fast to protect workers as the union kicks off a week of lobbying on Parliament Hill.
