International Workers’ Day celebrations

HEY, NIAGARA! 📣 Join us for our 3rd annual International Workers’ Day celebrations on May 1st!

The May Day Niagara 2024 Coalition has organized not one, but TWO exciting events for this year’s May Day! Our daytime event this year will be a rally against privatized healthcare at MPP Sam Oosterhoff’s office, and our evening event will feature live music performances and a community tabling fair! Come out to either (or both 😉) to connect with and show support for workers in the Niagara community, celebrate our achievements, and demand for better labour conditions for all.
