The Role of Unions & Pensions in the Struggle for Mining Justice

Located: at the corner of Church and Gould streets, just one block north of Dundas and two blocks east of Yonge street.
This event is free and open to the community.
The Canadian Mining and resource extraction industry is a dominant player nationally and internationally. The negative impacts of resource exploration and extraction have had negative consequences on the environment and human rights violations here in Ontario and around the world.
The Canadian government is an important player in the mining industry, actively supporting companies’ overseas operations through the provision of both financial and political backing.
Workshops and panels will examine the social & environmental damage caused by Canadian mining corporations. Participants will discuss and explore strategies for accountability & justice.
Join us to show our support for healthy & just mining practices. For more information and to register send an e-mail to [email protected]
