Today, on Workers’ Memorial Day, we pause to remember those who have lost their lives, been injured, or made ill simply by going to work.

Behind every statistic is a person. A parent, a partner, a friend and a family whose life has been changed forever.

We stand with injured workers and the loved ones of those who never made it home. We are committed not only to advocating for their rights, but to supporting safer workplaces so that no family has to endure preventable loss.

We remember. We honour. And we continue to fight for accountability, justice and change.
