Tomorrow, on the National Day of Remembrance and Action on Violence Against Women, we pause to honour the lives lost to gender-based violence and to reaffirm our commitment to building a safer, more equitable world.

With December nearly upon us, I want to take a moment to recognize the incredible work happening across our Local. First, thank you. Thank you to everyone who calls, texts, emails, attends school visits, meetings, or events - or simply takes a moment to read this newsletter. Every effort you make to stay connected strengthens our Union, and it does not go unnoticed.
