On Labour Day, we honour the generations of workers who built this country – not just with their hands, but with their courage, collective action and unwavering belief in fairness.

This year, more than ever, we are reminded that the fight for decent wages, safe workplaces, affordable housing and strong public services is far from over. Workers across Canada are feeling the pressure – rising costs, corporate greed and governments that too often choose profits over people.

Labour Day isn’t just a celebration. It’s a call to action.

Let us recommit to standing together – across all sectors, communities and generations – to ensure every worker in Canada is treated with dignity and respect.

Solidarity isn’t just a slogan – it’s how we win.

Happy Labour Day!

In solidarity,

Tracey Sauer
SGEU President
