As we commemorate Black History Month across Canada, ATU Local 113 acknowledges the work, struggles and successes of our sisters and brothers of African descent – past and present.
We recognize and acknowledge that each of you are a part of what makes our diverse city, and country, a great place to work and live – by the contributions you make to our society.
As part of our Social Justice Initiative, join us this year, in our pilot program for Black History Month.
We want to ensure that all our members have an opportunity to participate and have easy access to all information about the program.
We hope you will find this pilot program valuable. Your participation and feedback will give us insights into how to develop programs that are relevant to you and our goals for fighting for social justice for all.
