Equality Statement and Land Acknowledgement
Equality Statement
Union solidarity is based on the principle that union members are equal and deserve mutual respect at all levels. Any behaviour that creates conflict prevents us from working together to strengthen our union.
As unionists, mutual respect, cooperation and understanding are our goals. We should neither condone nor tolerate behaviour that undermines the dignity or self-esteem of any individual or creates an intimidating, hostile or offensive environment.
Discriminatory speech or conduct which is racist, sexist, transphobic or homophobic hurts and thereby divides us. So too, does discrimination on the basis of ability, age, class, religion, language and ethnic origin.
Sometimes discrimination takes the form of harassment. Harassment means using real or perceived power to abuse, devalue or humiliate. Harassment should not be treated as a joke. The uneasiness and resentment that it creates are not feelings that help us grow as a union.
Discrimination and harassment focus on characteristics that make us different; and they reduce our capacity to work together on shared concerns such as decent wages, safe working conditions, and justice in the workplace, society and in our union.
CUPE’s policies and practices must reflect our commitment to equality. Members, staff and elected officers must be mindful that all persons deserve dignity, equality and respect.
Land Acknowledgment
“We respectfully acknowledge that we are gathered on the traditional territory of the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation. This land is covered by Treaty 13, also known as the Toronto Purchase.
As CUPE members, we recognize the ongoing impacts of colonialism and the need for reconciliation. We commit to learning from Indigenous peoples, standing in solidarity with their struggles, and working toward justice, equity, and decolonization in our workplaces and communities.
We encourage all members to reflect on their relationship with this land and to take meaningful action in support of Indigenous sovereignty and rights.”
