On Feb. 9, 2018, HSA hosted an all-day workshop entitled, "Men as Allies." The workshop, organized by HSA's Education Committee, was an opportunity for men in the union to come together and discuss the role they can play in supporting gender equity work. The workshop created space to explore how men have benefited from patriarchy and sexism, and sought to deepen participants' understanding of allyship in the fight against gender oppression. 

HSA’s Women’s Committee is pleased to offer an opportunity to celebrate International Women’s Day by providing a two- day education workshop on March 8 and 9, 2018.

Unions and the labour movement are a huge force for positive change for union members, workers and society as a whole.  We owe everything from safe worksites, paid vacations, pensions, universal health care and much more to our unions.

Come out and celebrate everything we have achieved, and that we continue to work for, together in the labour movement.  Solidarity forever!
