The Ottawa and District Labour Council’s Education Committee along with its Human Rights Committee has been working closely together on activities related to the 100th Anniversary of the 1919 Winnipeg General Strike.
Across Canada, numerous unions, labour councils and others have also committed to this 100thanniversary recognition that helped define Canada’s labour movement.
We are pleased to announce “United in Song” “An event to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the 1919 Winnipeg General Strike” taking place at the Bronson Centre Theatre on May 30, 2019 at 7:00pm.
We have attached a poster of this exciting event and look forward to an evening that promises to recognize, remember and promote the incredible sacrifices and courage of workers during a time in Canadian history we must always ensure is never forgotten.
In solidarity,
