March for Workers Injured and Killed on the Job - April 27th, 2025

Join the East Van Workers Assembly and allies in the workers movement Sunday April 27th, 1pm at Thornton Park (1166 Main St.) for a rally and march for the National Day of Mourning for workers injured and killed on the job. Over the last 30 years, the number of workplace fatalities in BC and Canada has steadily increased. 2022 was the second deadliest year with 181 workplace deaths in British Columbia alone. 2021 was the second deadliest year for Canadian workers, with 1081 deaths across Canada.  Workers continue to be exposed to hazardous working conditions by our bosses, while the government and employers collude to maximize profits at the expense of the lives and well-being of the entire working class! It is past time that workers reclaim this day, to remember and honour those who have needlessly lost their lives, to demand safe working conditions, and as a step toward a renewed and militant labour movement that stands up and fights!
