Toronto’s International Women’s Day rally this year was equal parts celebration and fierce commitment to struggle.
Bombs are raining down on civilians around the world (including at a girls' school). Here at home, care work is marginalized and under-valued, trans women and girls are under attack, reproductive healthcare is inaccessible for many who live in rural and remote communities.
And the response in the streets is to rise up to demand peace and justice!
In a time of rising austerity, right-wing extremism, and rampant militarism, feminist struggle is the antidote we need.
Happy IWD everyone: see you in the streets!

Show your support for the Toronto International Women’s Day (IWD) Rally and march. Women have been at the forefront of resilience, resistance, and progress, fighting for social and economic justice for women and gender-diverse workers across Ontario. This is a call for participation.

We felt the strength and solidarity at today's International Women's Day march! @cupelocal79 Toronto city workers came out in full force after securing a tentative agreement, leading the march alongside women, allies, and unions. OFL Secretary Treasurer @AhmadGaiedOFL joined thousands from unions, community organizations, and allies-coming together to honour women and defend women's rights at a time when they are increasingly under threat.

A week in ON child care headlines:
Shortage of ECEs forces Toronto child care centre to close.
Wellington survey shows child care recruitment, retention crisis.
Pace of ECE recruiting in Lambton County not matching demand
How can @Sflecce & @JennaSudds turn this around? 🧵

These Waterloo Region families have a message for @karinagould and @Sflecce: child care is #WorthMore. It's time to work together to raise wages in child care and expand access for families.
