ATU Local 113 would like to wish the Hindu community and all who celebrate a Holi filled with love, laughter, and a kaleidoscope of colours. Let the colours of Holi inspire us to brighten the lives of those around us and to celebrate the spirit of togetherness.

“Local 113 – thank you for what you do by keeping Toronto moving.” – John Costa, President, ATU International.

Today & everyday we are celebrating our members hard work and dedication!

On Transit Worker Appreciation Day, ATU Local 113 is celebrating our hard-working members and transit workers across North America.

Today and every day, we recognize the significant impact of public transit vehicle operators, maintenance crews who keep stations in good order, mechanics who keep our fleet of buses and trains running smoothly, dispatchers who keep us on schedule, and the countless other transit workers who are committed to keeping us all moving safely. While the work can often be challenging, our members continue to serve with professionalism, care, and passion for the community.

Thank you for your exceptional service and your commitment to keep Toronto moving.

Happy Transit Worker Appreciation Day!

We had a blast hosting our annual charity hockey tournament this past Saturday evening with Toronto Maple Leaf’s alumni squaring off against our very own ATU Local 113 All Stars.

It was a great night celebrating our community, while also raising money for an important cause.

We look forward to seeing you this evening at the Canlan Sports Arena.

Join us this evening (March 16th) for our annual charity hockey tournament!

The ATU Local 113 All Stars will take on the Toronto Maple Leafs Alumni at the Canlan Sports Arena. Tickets are $5.00 each and will only be sold at the door. All proceeds will go to support @mscanadaofficial 

We held our third training session and mobilized over 60 additional members this week. ATU International organizers have helped train this high-energy group, and they are united to win and ready to go!

Collective Bargaining Update

‘UNITED TO WIN!’ CAMPAIGN

GROWS IN STRENGTH AND NUMBERS!

 The ATU Local 113 Bargaining Committee continues to work diligently to negotiate a strong deal for our members and discussions are ongoing.

‘UNITED TO WIN!’ CAMPAIGN PETITIONS

Since launching our collective bargaining campaign, Local 113 members have stepped up to show their solidarity with our Bargaining team. In just two weeks, our trained Campaign Steering Committee engaged over 45% of our membership at their work locations. We’re proud of this tremendous accomplishment, and the work and dedication that had made this possible! Thank you and keep the momentum going!

‘UNITED TO WIN!’ CAMPAIGN EDUCATION AND TRAINING
