SUMMARY:Red Dress Day
DESCRIPTION:May 5 is Red Dress Day\, a day of awareness for the missing and murdered Indigenous women\, girls\, and two-spirited individuals (MMIWG2S)\, and a time to express our deep solidarity with their families. The National Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls has laid out 231 recommendations for ending the violence. The Inquiry’s report calls out the ongoing cycle of violence and systemic discrimination that has resulted from Canada’s colonial past. By ignoring or underfunding support for Indigenous communities\, colonial violence has been perpetuated by governments in every region. \nThe Inquiry’s calls for justice are a guide for all Canadians\, organizations\, and governments to put an end to the violence. Allies must keep up pressure on elected officials to get to work to implement all 231 recommendations. \nAs a social union\, Unifor recognizes that the fight for social justice for everyone goes beyond the bargaining table\, and extends to community action. For the second year in a row\, we will partner with the Tears to Hope Society to participate in their annual relay run to raise awareness about the women and girls who have gone missing along Northern B.C.’s “Highway of Tears”. This year\, Unifor members can participate in a nationwide relay on Saturday\, October 5.

SUMMARY:Mental Health Week
DESCRIPTION:Mental health is just as important as our physical health. In any given year\, 1 in 5 Canadians experiences a mental illness. By the time Canadians reach 40 years of age\, 1 in 2 have – or have had – a mental illness. \nThis year’s Mental Health Week is centred on the healing power of compassion\, emphasizing how compassion connects us all. Evidence suggests that giving compassion\, receiving compassion\, and allowing ourselves to experience self-compassion are all very beneficial to our mental health.
