UFCW Canada Local 1006A was proud to observe the International Day against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biphobia on May 17, 2016.
The day is marked in 130 countries around the world and is intended to raise awareness and spur action against the discrimination, prejudice and violence faced by members of the LGBTQ community around the world.
Toronto Pride Weekend (JUNE 27 to 28) is around the corner and your union is inviting you to join us for one of the biggest events of the year! Bring your co-workers, friends and family to downtown Toronto and together, let’s stand up for equality, human rights and fairness for all. This weekend is about rallying together for respect, dignity and LGBTQ rights in our workplaces and our communities.
On April 8, 2015, join your union in taking a stand against bullying, discrimination, homophobia and transphobia in our schools, workplaces and communities by participating in the International Day of Pink.
In the wake of attacks on LGBTQ rights in Arkansas and Indiana, it’s more important than ever to stand up for equality, diversity, and inclusivity in our society.
We hope you can show your support against bullying, discrimination and homophobia and transphobia by observing the day and/or wearing pink.
