On March 8, we celebrate International Women’s Day, a day to recognize women’s achievements and renew our commitment to gender equality.

For CUPE NB, this means fighting for pay equity, better wages, and strong public services – Because economic justice is fundamental to gender justice. Women, especially in care, and service sectors, continue to face systemic wage discrimination. It’s time for action!

That’s why CUPE NB is proud to support the NB Coalition for Pay Equity and the Regroupement féministe du Nouveau-Brunswick in their call for feminist economic policies.

• Join us for the International Women’s Day march!
  Meet at: Avenir Centre, Moncton – 12 p.m.
  Ending at: Aberdeen Cultural Centre – 1 p.m., with snacks & networking
  Bring your banners and show your support!

This is our best chance in decades to secure pay equity legislation for the private sector. The provincial government has promised action – now we must hold them to it!

A strong and united front line will make all the difference.
