Labour Day Parade 2015!

Jewitt McLuckie & Associates got a bird’s eye view of Ottawa’s Labour Day Parade 2015. Despite the scorching weather, there was a strong union presence, with enthusiastic marchers from CUPE, ATU, IBEW, CAPE, PIPSC, PSAC and others on their way over to McNabb Park.  Thanks to the generosity of the Ottawa District Labour Council, the festivities continued with a free barbecue and lots of family fun. We hope everyone had a great long weekend and remembered to thank the labour movement pioneers who made it possible!
