"I was there when we brought the Union in. The first-time contract they won for us was unbelievable. It changed the quality of my life. I am now a Shop Steward and enjoy working with my Union and looking after my fellow workers. "
Members of Teamsters attended the annual International Brotherhood of Teamsters (IBT) Women’s Conference last week.
The goal of this conference is to mobilize and train 1,200 women union members from Canada, the United States and Puerto Rico.
The Canadian delegation was made up of members from several provinces. Together, they sang in unison the Canadian national anthem, a gesture of solidarity that caused intense emotions in a crowded room.
