MoveUP was proud to be a sponsor of the South Island Powwow.

Today (September 30) we observe the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.

Read our message on why it’s more important now than ever to advance reconciliation and stand up as a community against bad actors who want to destroy these efforts.

Our message was written prior to the despicable display by white nationalists we witnessed this past Sunday.

MoveUP wishes our members a happy Mid-Autumn Festival!

For over 3,000 years, many countries in Asia have celebrated the Mid-Autumn Festival which honours the harvest moon. It happens on the 15th day of the 8th month of the Lunar Calendar when the moon is at its fullest and brightest.

During the Festival, families reunite to enjoy a special meal together, admire and appreciate the full moon, enjoy mooncakes, and carry bright lanterns outside as path to prosperity and good fortune.

Help us TAKE ACTION! 🍁 Send a letter to make the Carney government understand they have picked a fight with workers they won’t win: workerstogether.ca/repeal-107-protect-workers

The Carney government’s proposed amendments to the Canada Labour Code is a direct attack on our right to stand up for ourselves to demand better working conditions and fair pay. It is anti-Canadian.

Workers will never surrender our right to STRIKE! ✊🏽 TODAY we took that message directly to Liberal MP Terry Beech.

The federal government has introduced legislation that would give it new powers to intervene in & shut down legal strikes. That would give more power to employers who refuse to negotiate fairly and less power to workers fighting for fair wages, safe workplaces & secure jobs.

Our right to strike is our power to win better. Let’s defend it together.

HAPPENING NOW: MoveUP members & staff join other union & community members in Burnaby to stand up for the RIGHT TO STRIKE! ✊🏽

The Canadian government should be standing with workers, not weakening our bargaining power!
