York Region Celebrates Workers on Labour Day

On behalf of York Regional Council and The Regional Municipality of York, it is my pleasure to wish all York Region residents a happy and safe Labour Day.

Labour Day offers an opportunity to celebrate the contributions workers make to our communities and economy and to recognize those whose efforts have advanced the rights of workers across York Region, Ontario and Canada.

York Region’s workers are the backbone of our economy. From advancing the tech economy and providing essential services to building critical infrastructure and supporting the local food chain, our workers help make York Region a strong, caring, safe community for all.

Making life better for people and employers continues to be the focus of Regional Council this Labour Day. By working together, we are building a strong local economy and maintaining fair and equitable workplaces for everyone who calls York Region home.

Today we celebrate every individual whose efforts support and sustain our economy and thank those who ensure workplaces across our communities remain safe.

On behalf of Regional Council, I wish our more than 1.2 million residents a safe and enjoyable Labour Day.

Wayne Emmerson
York Region Chairman and CEO
