Supporting LGBTQI2S Rights

UFCW Canada, UFCW Locals, and community partners are gearing up for an exciting celebration of diversity and culture with the quickly approaching Pride festivities in Toronto, that will involve people from around the globe showing their Pride, from June 20 - 29.

Toronto, as the host city for this International gathering of LGBT communities around the globe will also make history, as this will be the first time that the global Pride festival is held in North America. UFCW Canada is excited to take part in many of the events that will be featured throughout this ten-day festival and international celebration incorporating activism, education, and the history and culture of global LGBT communities.

We are aiming for a strong contingent from all UFCW Canada Local Unions at the Pride Parade on Sunday, June 29. UFCW Canada Local Unions, members and activists are also encouraged to join in the many other events in which UFCW Canada participation will be part of.

Should you wish to volunteer and assist with any of these Pride events and activities please contact your Local Union for further information.
