George Brown College’s 17th Annual LABOUR FAIR
Contest open to all GBC students – full-time or part-time

George Brown College’s annual Labour Fair is a week-long event bringing 75+ trade union representatives into the college, to give students a chance to find out more about the occupations they’re training for. The Labour Fair features in-class sessions with union speakers, information displays, videos, music and cultural events. Date and location: All GBC campuses from Monday, March 9 to Friday, March 13, 2009.

Our theme this year:
“Small Victories, Big Gains: Unions in Hard Times”
Despite very tough times, this year the labour movement has had a lot of gains – unionizing a Walmart store, getting agricultural workers & part-time college workers the right to join a union.
We’ll celebrate these gains and explore how these have improved everyone’s working lives!
