CUPE's 54th Annual Union Education Manitoba Summer School was held May 27 - 31 in Russell, Manitoba, Treaty 2 Territory. This was the first Summer School since 2019 and and included 60 delegates and facilitators. By all accounts, it was a great success and one of the best Summer Schools ever held in Manitoba.
CUPE Manitoba looks forward to bringing CUPE's spirit of Frontline Pride to celebrations across Manitoba this month, from Flin Flon to Steinbach and many places in-between.
Our activities kicked off at the Union Centre in Winnipeg on May 24th with a flag raising ceremony in which CUPE Manitoba 2SLGBTQI+ Committee Co-Chair Bryce Byron (CUPE Local 2348) spoke alongside Federal NDP leader Jagmeet Singh and Deputy Premier and Health Minister Uzoma Asagwara.
On Tuesday, May 14, 2024 the United Way Winnipeg and Winnipeg District Labour Council presented their annual community labour awards to individual labour activists and presented certificates of recognition and excellence to unions for their fundraising efforts.

April 28 is the National Workers' Day of Mourning for workers injured or killed on the job.
