Greetings to All Aboriginal, Indigenous, Black and Workers of Colour members!

“Silence No More” – Our experiences and voices will not be silenced anymore.

Join us and engage in the needed real conversations of the world we are currently living in. Racial violence is at an all time high. Acts of Anti-Black, Anti-Indigenous and Anti-Asian racism is happening every day and it is clear that we need to have the challenging discussions about the impacts of racism on our own mental health, our children’s well-being and in our communities.

During the conference we will provide break times – but as seen during last year’s conference, we will be busy. We will create an Anti-Racism action plan on what we need as trade unionists to move forward from this pandemic that has greatly impacted our communities. We will have break-out rooms for mental health, and combating human trafficking. Let’s use this time to be together and support each other going forward.

We will do everything in our power to ensure a safe space for members who self-identify to share strategies and skills, and ways to support our allies to continue the fight for justice all around.

Pre-registration is a must and a self-identification will be included in the registration.
