On May 1, 2022, Unifor encourages all members to join the Ontario Federation of Labour’s province-wide day of action for a workers-first agenda.

May 1, or May Day, is the traditional workers’ holiday, a day that working people celebrate the gains they have won over the years and commit to fighting for a better future for everyone.

Local unions that are not in the communities listed below are strongly encouraged to mobilize toward the May 1 OFL events in their communities.
