Pride is about solidarity.

This Pride season, we recognize the contributions of 2SLGBTQI+ workers and reaffirm our commitment to workplaces and communities where everyone is treated with dignity, respect, and fairness.

The labour movement has always stood against discrimination and exclusion. When we defend the rights of one group of workers, we strengthen rights for all workers.

The Yukon Federation of Labour stands in solidarity with 2SLGBTQI+ communities and remains committed to building safe, inclusive, and equitable workplaces for everyone.

🏳️‍🌈 An injury to one is an injury to all. Together, we are stronger.

On behalf of the YFL, we would like to thank the Governor General's Canadian Leadership Conference for their visit to Whitehorse on May 31, 2026.

We were honoured to attend this important gathering and to share information about the labour movement in Yukon. We also appreciated the opportunity to present the new Yukon Workers' Action Centre, which was established to help bridge the gap between unionized and non unionized workers by providing legal navigation, guidance, and support when workers experience issues in their workplaces.

We are grateful for the opportunity to participate in these discussions and to highlight the important work being done to support workers across Yukon.

Each red dress represents a life, a family, and a community forever impacted. While awareness has grown, much work remains to ensure safety, justice, and accountability.

On May 5, red dresses appear across Canada. Each dress represents an Indigenous woman, girl, or Two Spirit person who is missing or has been taken.
