Today, we honour those who served and all who lost their lives in the line of duty.
"They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them."
—Laurence Binyon, “For the Fallen”

In SK, we're all too familiar with attempts to undercut our ability to bargain. We stand with AB teachers facing oppressive back-to-work legislation.

In 1942, Eileen Tallman Sufrin led the first strike of bank employees in Canadian history. She attempted to organize 9,000 Eaton's employees into unions between 1948 and 1952.
Her work led to increased salaries and benefits for the employees.
This is her story.
