TMS honoured to be asked by Unifor Local 111’s Pride Committee to help them celebrate
April 10th marks International Day of Pink. The Day of Pink is a worldwide anti-bullying and anti-homophobia event held annually during the second week of April. Though similar to Pink Shirt Day (held in February) in that it also seeks to end all bullying, the Day of Pink is more specifically aimed towards anti-LGBTQ+ bullying. The Unifor Local 111 Pride Committee held a special event on the previous evening at the 12th St. Union Hall recognizing the special day. TMS was invited to attend.
“It was Wednesday night from 6:30pm -9pm. We were asked to set up a table to introduce ourselves. The was a DJ, videos, entertainment including Mandy Kamp, and some goodies. Myself, Lawrence, Rob, Bryan , and Angus represented us., and Dale popped in. We were also helping sell Pink t shirts for the union. We were greeted with open arms and it was very informative and we all enjoyed ourselves.”
