This Labour Day, we come together to celebrate the contributions of working people and the ongoing fight for fairness, respect, and dignity at work. The annual Labour Day Parade is a time-honoured tradition that brings together unions, community organizations, and allies to show our strength, solidarity, and pride in the labour movement.
Check out this list of where you can participate in your area here!
We invite all members, families, and supporters to march with us! Bring your union colours, flags, and energy as we walk together in solidarity with thousands of workers from across the community.
This year’s parade is not only a celebration but also a reminder of the progress we’ve made—and the work still ahead—to secure fair wages, safe workplaces, strong public services, and respect for every worker.
👟 Wear comfortable shoes, bring water, and get ready to raise your voice for workers’ rights!
Whether it’s your first time joining or you’ve marched with us for years, your presence makes a difference. Together, we show the power of solidarity.
