**NEW TIME** because of the rain. 

CUPE 3903 members, families, friends, and all those who supported us for twenty long weeks on strike are invited to a celebration of resistance!

CUPE Carnival will take place on Sunday July 22 from 4:30 pm to 7:30 pm in High Park Picnic Area #4 (Close to the Bloor St W entrance – see below for a map and accessibility info). There will be food and snacks, including vegan, gluten free, and halal options, as well as soft drinks.

Bring your kids, your friends, your picket line buddies! There will be activities and games.

It’s been a long strike, and there is struggle ahead as the provincial government cracks down on workers’ rights and attacks public institutions. Let’s take this time to recharge, enjoy each other’s company, eat good food, and celebrate all those whose resilience and determination should make the Ford government quake in their boots!
