UFCW Canada is up for the debate. But what about the leaders of the federal political parties? Women in Canada have questions, and Up for Debate challenges our leaders to answer them.

Toronto – June 11, 2014 – On this 6th anniversary of the National Day of Reconciliation with Aboriginal communities, UFCW Canada activists in Toronto joined social justice advocates across Canada, to walk and send a message calling for an equitable future for First Nations children.
Toronto – June 4, 2015 – On June 11, 2008, Prime Minister Stephen Harper stood up in the House of Commons and apologized for Canada's notorious residential schools system. The system removed young Aboriginal children from their families and sent them to schools often far from their communities — to strip them of their heritage in an attempt to assimilate them into the dominant culture.
