Our Labour Council fights for social and economic justice in our community, working to build a healthy, sustainable community by speaking out and taking action on economic, social and environmental issues.
We join parents, students, education workers and community groups in the fight for accessible, affordable, public and post-secondary education. We assist health care workers and community coalitions in the struggle for continued universal, quality health care.
We come together with community allies to gain a fair wage and a decent standard of living for all people — especially young people, new immigrants and the disabled — through job creation, community economic development, training, safe and healthy workplaces and adequate social programs.
We fight for equality, pay equity, universal childcare, employment equity, and protection from discrimination, harassment and violence against women, the disabled, people of colour, Aboriginal peoples, and the LGBTQ+ community.
We are committed to challenging racism in our workplaces, schools, and the legislature. Together with labour activists, coalition groups and grassroots organizations, we are working to build a stronger and more caring community.

In Solidarity,
The Executive Board
