Today, a few members and alumni of UBSAS headed off to Niagara Falls, Ontario for a huge Labor Day march put on by UNITE HERE. We met some Canada-based ex-USASers/current organizers. It was super sunny and beautiful this afternoon. Over 500 people attended the march through the tourist district of Niagara Falls- We specifically stopped at one Sherton Hotel that UNITE HERE has represented for 40 years. Recently though, under new management, the owners have been attempting to cut the union contract that workers have.
I think we made a good impression through out the city. Check out the pics!
