Border Land Teachers' Association

Last week CLAC 152 from Sprague, workers for Premier Horticulture went on strike for a fair collective agreement. Border Land Teachers’ Association President Rob Stradeski was out in support of them. Please support them. Everybody deserves fair wages and the right to bargain fairly.

Come down to K.R. Barkman Park on Saturday, September 12th to celebrate inclusion, individuality and community with Steinbach Pride!

Arrive early to browse through and support our local vendors, connect with friends new and old and take in some of the pre-rally entertainment. Vendors will be set up by 11:30am.
Then find your comfy spot for the rally that will officially begin at 1pm where we’ll hear from members and supporters of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community.
Then we take to the streets where everyone is welcome to join us as we make our way down Main Street and back to the park, in a fabulous showing of Pride in who we are!
Stick around the park after the march for more entertainment and connections.

Keep an eye on our Facebook and Instagram over the next 2 months for opportunities to get involved, how to support and all the details you’ll need to keep Pride going all year round with us at Steinbach Pride!

The Manitoba Teachers' Society opposes the Hanover School Division motion to create a policy that would violate Canadian law when it comes to the rights' of students in accessing health services.
