Women's Program

This past year has seen great achievements and victories for Sisters in our union and on March 8, 2011, we stand together with millions around the world to celebrate International Women’s Day and inspire women.

On December 6, 1989, 14 women were murdered at l'École Polytechnique de Montréal. They died because they were women. Now, more than 20 years later, we honour these victims and their families and remind ourselves that we must continue to stand up in protest of violence against women and take action to eliminate it from our society.
