The Coalition of Black Trade Unionists Canadian Chapter is celebrating Black History Month by holding a series of webinars in February and March - commemorating both Black History and the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination. Throughout the series we will look at the work being done to move towards racial and social justice and reconciliation.
The CBTU Webinar series opened on February 3, 2021 with the first webinar on Black History in Canada featuring journalist and anthropologist Emilie Nicolas, as well as a spoken work performance by El Jones, moderated by Yolanda McClean and Isabelle Miller. This bilingual webinar was recorded and published on the CBTU YouTube Channel.

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.
The Coalition of Black Trade Unionists (CBTU)-Canada stands in solidarity with all Canadian workers affected by the 47th US President’s recent application of 25% tariffs on all automobiles and auto parts made in Canada.
