Since 2012, team members at our Saskatoon Distribution Centre have worked with @StoonPubSchools to help overcome food insecurity impacting students. Funded through our Community Investment Fund, nutritious food items are donated to 14 community schools weekly.
On this International Women’s Day, Workers & Women across Canada are bringing gender justice to the ballot box. Now is the time for us to put politicians on notice: Women and workers are rising up, the time for gender justice is now!

Solidarity with all the workers at Heritage Inn in Saskatoon and Moose Jaw, who have been locked out by a greedy employer for a year. No one should be punished for standing up for fair wages and better conditions. Stay strong—your fight is our fight! ✊ #SupportLockedOutWorkers

Shocked and saddened today to learn of the loss of Kim Novak, President of UFCW Local 1518 in BC.
She was a dynamic leader, a committed trade unionist and a passionate activist.
She volunteered on my first campaign in Burnaby South and could always be counted on to show up for workers.
My deep condolences to her husband and children, friends and all of her Union family.

"The constant and historic exploitation of migrant workers in Canada requires urgent attention by everyone. Canada’s immigration system is built on racism and colonialism. We need to stand in solidarity with foreign workers and find pathways to citizenship." #CLC2023 #LiftingEveryoneUp

This is our message on the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination:
Racism and discrimination are the rejection of all that we stand for.
We must, in turn, reject and #FightRacism.
