Every local union has individuals, within its rank and file membership, who make significant contributions to our union and labour movement without fanfare or comment. These brothers and sisters lead by example in many areas: leadership, organizing, volunteerism, political action, service to our membership, and/or community service among others.
These rank and file heroes go largely unnoticed and, too often, do not get thanks or any formal recognition for the important role they play in the growth and health of our union, and the labour movement as a whole. District 6 does acknowledge these “unsung heroes” with our Outstanding Service Awards. We are seeking nominations of activists within your local union who have shown that special dedication and commitment and should be honoured by our Union.
