Scholarship Question

Truth and Reconciliation in the union movement.

Question: Almost 8 years after the release of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s report, what role do you believe unions have to play in the process of reconciliation?

How can unions look inwards, at their own structures, practices and histories to consider how they might have participated in and benefited from historic and current forms of colonization? In your response, please include the following:

  • What do you think unions should look at specifically?
  • Have you seen or participated in any action or project that you believe was a meaningful and significant gesture towards truth and reconciliation? What do you think the union movement here in Canada and the PSAC specifically could learn from this action?

Review the background for this question online.

Complete the online application form.
