Labour Day 2020 – Message from CLC President Hassan Yussuf

Greetings,

We are now one week away from Labour Day.

We know that many labour councils, affiliates and federations are preparing online events, and/or will be sharing social media messages to mark this important occasion in the labour movement’s calendar. We are pleased to support these efforts.

Please find below links to our social media assets for the Forward Together campaign. This campaign will be one of the largest ever launched by Canada’s unions.

At this critical moment in history, Canada’s workers have an opportunity like no other to influence decision makers to invest in our communities to spur a recovery that leaves no one behind.

Thank you for being a part of this timely campaign. We are confident we will be able to collectively influence progress that moves our nation Forward Together.

Below you will find links to the following downloadable files:
•           Sharegraphics and GIFs with social media posts
•           Frames to update your profile picture
•           Social media banners
•           A Forward Together colouring book

We’ll be inviting folks to tune in to the CLC’s Facebook page on Labour Day at 1 p.m. EDT to join a Watch Party to launch the Forward Together campaign ad and a message from the President, as well as to hear from workers and to hear special tributes. https://link.spamstopshere.net/u/491398f3/TuIOC87r6hGRadQMh3soMg?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fevents%2F443954273230231%2F
