As part of the celebrations to mark the historic Northern Ireland peace process, Unifor will join the Friends of Sinn Féin Canada to host Louise O’Reilly TD, the Sinn Féin Spokesperson on Enterprise, Trade, and Employment.

“The 25th anniversary of the signing of the Good Friday Agreement reminds us of the key role Canada played in bringing peace to Northern Ireland,” said Gavin McGarrigle, Unifor Western Regional Director, who was born in Derry, Northern Ireland. “The Good Friday Agreement should be protected and expanded as a template for peace in other conflicts around the world because we know that workers thrive in peaceful and democratic societies.”

Who: Louise O’Reilly TD, Sinn Féin Spokesperson; Gavin McGarrigle, Unifor Western Regional Director; Prof. Kurt Hübner, UBC; Mike Hurley, Mayor of Burnaby

When: Tuesday, April 11, 2023 at 7 p.m.
