Local 113 commemorates Orange T-Shirt Day
Today is National Truth and Reconciliation Day
Today is National Truth and Reconciliation Day – an opportunity for us to continue educating ourselves about the tragic history of Indigenous Peoples in Canada, the resilience of these communities, and to honour the children who were impacted or never returned from residential schools.
ATU Local 113 members are participating in sunrise ceremonies and hosting events throughout the city to mark the day. Our United Indigenous Council remains dedicated to contributing towards learning and healing for our Indigenous members and the broader community.

Happy Labour Day!
ATU Local 113 is proud to march with all workers and lead the Labour Day parade in Toronto. As we celebrate our 125th anniversary, we acknowledge that this year has been a history-making year for us.
Having successfully defended our workers’ Right to Strike after over a decade-long fight against the provincial government, it is clear that our work is not done. Together, we will continue to fight for dignity at work and fair wages.
Local 113 proudly honours workers everywhere and across all sectors. We celebrate the workers who have empowered progress in our society by overcoming many challenges. Through our solidarity, we will continue to honour those who paved the path for us, by ensuring a path for future workers.
On behalf of ATU Local 113’s Executive Board, shop stewards, and members, we invite you to join us at the Labour Day Parade and celebrate the many achievements of the Labour Movement.
