My impressions of the OFL Convention – By Joshua Tunde, LL1231
This is my first attendance of the Ontario Federation of Labour (OFL) Convention. It’s Inspiring to see the diversity of the members attending from all walks of life. I immediately felt I belonged because they stand for the improvement of workers’ lives.
All speakers referred to the importance of unity – standing up together to collectively use our voices and act. Enough is Enough is the theme of the convention, and this is the time for change.
The Convention gave recognition and respect to the Indigenous Peoples and together we sang the inspirational Bread and Roses. The Convention serves as a learning opportunity and I learned a lot.
