SUP Marks Pandemic’s Second Day of Mourning
The Society of United Professionals (SUP/IFPTE Local 160)/Canadian Area Vice President Scott Travers and Secretary-Treasurer Michelle Johnston hosted the Society of United Professionals' online Day of Mourning ceremony on Wednesday, the second of the COVID-19 global pandemic. This year's remarks focused on the sacrifices of essential workers and the way in which Ontario's government continues to fail to protect workers from COVID-19. Travers called on members to phone their MPP and demand paid sick days for all workers to save lives and stop the spread of COVID-19. Travers and Johnston read their remarks before holding a moment of silence for workers injured and killed on the job. Read their complete remarks here.
