UFCW Canada Local 1000A is calling on members to join labour and social justice allies in supporting the Women’s Annual Memorial Marches in February. The day of action honors the lives of missing and murdered women. Every year, community members come together to mourn and remember missing and murdered women through marches and spiritual ceremonies.
As part of the day, your union is also encouraging you to join in signing and circulating a petition in demanding an inquiry into missing and murdered Aboriginal women and girls in Canada. More about the petition can be found on the Native Women’s Association of Canada website.Many marches will be held on Feb. 14 but some will be held on other days in February.

Please note organizers have requested participants not bring their banners, flags, or leaflets to the memorial marches.
