International Walmart Workers Alliance

For over 15 years UFCW Canada has been leading the fight in Canada to help Walmart Associates understand and exercise their rights as workers and to challenge Walmart’s impact on good jobs, communities and free speech.


Coming on the heels of the union’s first ever National Political Action Conference, UFCW Canada activists in the West recently mobilized to play an impressive role in the 2010 Alberta New Democratic Party (ANDP) Convention, held in Red Deer from Nov. 5 – 7.
Long-time UFCW Canada activist Pearl Sawyer was recently honoured by the Ontario Federation of Labour for her lifelong commitment to fighting for improved health and safety standards in workplaces across the country.
