2023 District 3 Pride collection

Friends,

Pride season is almost upon us, and we are celebrating pride by recognizing that love, identity, and expression come in all forms. Once again, USW District 3 is proud to offer a collection of merchandise for purchase in celebration of the upcoming pride season. For this order, we will be using Universal Promotions, a USW-represented shop.

Local unions can place orders online at https://myunionstore.ca/collections/usw-district-3-pride-collection.

The deadline to place your orders is June 9th. All orders will then be produced and delivered in mid-July.

USW District 3 Pride Lanyard
$3.90

USW District 3 Pride Tank Top
from $28.00
(2XL/3XL/4XL extra charge)

USW District 3 Pride T-shirt
from $28.00
(2XL/3XL/4XL extra charge)

Supporting Pride events in your community is a great way to show solidarity in promoting dignity, respect and human rights for members of the rainbow community in the workplace and in our communities.

Please take a moment to find out when pride events are happening in your community. It’s a great way for your local union to celebrate how far we’ve come while remembering that transphobia, homophobia and biphobia are still all too common for many 2SLGBTQIA+ people across the world.

In solidarity,

Scott Lunny
Director
