IAM Union at the PRLC International Women’s Day Celebration

On this year’s International Women’s Day, the IAM Union, alongside other unions, attended an inspiring Women’s Day Brunch that celebrated the power of women in the labour movement. The event brought together incredible women who shared their stories, insights, and experiences.

Among the powerful voices was Bea Bruske from the Canadian Labour Congress (CLC), Debra De Angelis from UFCW, Dr. Crystal Garvey from OPSEU, and Joy Brown, a retired member of the Peel Regional Police Service.

The event featured performances by students from Meadowvale Secondary School, as well as a lively set by the Tri-Service Band. With raffles and a live auction, attendees had the chance to come together in support of women’s initiatives. It was a celebration of progress, unity, and the strength of women in the labor movement, highlighting their ongoing impact in creating a more inclusive future.
