On Nov. 25, while Ontario Premier Doug Ford refused to recognize the epidemic of intimate partner violence (IPV) while standing outside a women’s shelter, 150 Unifor women met in Windsor, Ont. to launch the union’s campaign demanding this declaration be made.
November 25 starts the 16 Days of Activism against Gender-Based Violence (GBV) which includes December 6, the National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women, then ends on December 10. As a union, we have dedicated our activism to end GBV since the devastation of the Montreal Massacre which took the lives of 14 women at Ecole Polytechnique in Quebec, simply because they were women.
