Organizer of VDLC IWD DInner
The VDLC represents 60,000 workers from over 100 affiliated unions in our community.
Labour council members work at food stores, on the docks, in public services, construction and much more.
The labour council brings these members together every month for regular meetings, and carries out events and activities between meetings.
The VDLC, a chartered body of the CLC, was founded in 1889 as the “Vancouver Trades and Labour Council”, making it one of the oldest labour organizations in the country.
