Stronger Now/ Plus Forts

The women and men that are the Building Trades are known across the industry as the safest, most-skilled and best trained. Our local unions are able to mobilize a large workforce, quickly, to meet the demands of the industry. Building Trades affiliates have set the bar on best practices to recruit and retain underrepresented groups to join our ranks and meet the needs of our employers. Through working together, Canada’s Building Trades Unions have been able to ensure our members can join and maintain a place in the middle-class.

We are excited, this year, to be hosting our Conference in-person, after many months of change and challenge. The conference theme, Stronger Now, reflects the ways in which our members across the country stood up to ever-changing industry protocols, health and safety regulations and challenges brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Our members continued to go to work each and every day to build this country; and Building Trades leadership continued to advocate to improve working conditions, and increase supports for workers. We built strong relationships in the halls of parliament and with our employers partners. We’re stronger now, than we’ve ever been.

Our Canadian Conference falls ahead of April 28, the National Day of Mourning, and we will be holding a ceremony to mark the day at Canada's Building Trades Monument located in Major’s Hill Park, Ottawa, ON
