In the past, we have mentioned this event and hope that you can join on the virtual ride!

For the past 5 years CBTU has co-sponsored the Freedom Train Ride that recognizes Emancipation Day.  We have always had an amazing turnout for this event, with over a thousand people.  However, due to COVID and the social gathering restrictions, we are unable to exceed 50 people at this time.

Hope you can make it (even if from your bed).  😊

On this Emancipation Day, the poor can dream, the weak can hope, the powerless can rise again.

April 22nd, 2025 is Earth Day. The Coalition of Black Trade Unionists, Ontario Canada (CBTU), the Enrich Project and the Toronto Environmental Alliance call upon labour and the community to reconnect with and build a relationship to the earth. Why? It’s simple – the extraordinary benefits of time spent outdoors should be available to all. Outdoors, is a great big, beautiful earth, where children and adults can learn about themselves through the experience of exploring in nature. One cannot love what one doesn’t know. If we want children to become adults who will care for and protect the earth, we must encourage a strong relationship with the natural world.
