Family events, bargaining tables, and even workouts have moved online in 2020. This past week, Unifor’s Ontario Area Meetings made the shift, as hundreds of members tuned into the Eastern Ontario, GTA, London and Kitchener Area Meetings.
Area Directors hosted lively conversations between members, local leaders, and staff, addressing current issues in their workplaces and sharing new skills and knowledge to organize during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Regional Director Naureen Rizvi attended every event, and shared a message of unity, and heard from workers directly.
“We cannot rely solely on the government or any employer to provide protections and support,” said Rizvi to attendees of the Greater Toronto Area meeting, “But you know that your union is here for you to push for protections and relief for workers and working families.”
Members in Ontario and across the country can engage with Unifor’s advocacy campaigns concerning COVID-19, or read resources and updates at www.unifor.org/covid19.
In the following week, the remaining Area Meetings will take place for members in Windsor and Northern Ontario.
Members who live in those regions are invited to register today:
| Tuesday, November 24 | 4:00pm | |
| Thursday November 26 | 6:30pm |
