We went out to the Unifor workers rally in Windsor last Friday. The aim of the rally was to keep GM Oshawa open, and it was scheduled at the same time a GM investors meeting was taking place. GM HQ is pictured right behind us (grey & red buildings) across the Detroit river. Some of the speakers at this event were Jerry Dias & Unifor Local 222 President Colin James.

We stand in solidarity.

Hey guys, November is Woman Abuse Prevention Month.

Jessica Ridgwell, our Women's Advocate is selling purple scarves and ties to raise money for the women's shelter for preventing violence against women. She has them in her office at the plant if you're interested for $20.

Here is a link to her contacts informationhttps://uniforlocal1285.ca/womens-advocate/

We would appreciate you giving this post a share.

In solidarity,

YOU WON'T WANT TO MISS THIS!
The YWC is having our second general meeting November 19th, 11 am at the Union Hall.

We need your help on deciding what our offical YWC Logo should be. Currently we have two, displayed in our profile and cover photo. Also, we are accepting your designs. After approval of the council, your design will be entered into the public vote. This is a chance to have your work represent the YWC.

Come out to pitch your ideas, see what you can get involved with and raise concerns on questions you may have. We will see you there.

Happy Diwali everyone!

Today, October 19th, is the start of Diwali - The Festival of Lights also referred to as Deepavali. The significance of the festival is the victory of light over darkness, good over evil, knowledge over ignorance, and hope over despair.

During this 5 day festival, lets try to light the way to a brighter future.
