À l’occasion de la Journée internationale contre l’homophobie, la transphobie et la biphobie, le SCFP renouvelle son engagement à lutter pour la sécurité des personnes 2ELGBTQI+ au travail et dans nos communautés.

La haine envers les personnes bispirituelles, lesbiennes, gaies, bisexuelles, trans, qu**rs et intersexes est en hausse au Canada. Certains gouvernements provinciaux de droite ont adopté des politiques et des lois régressives et transphobes qui mettent à risque les jeunes 2ELGBTQI+ et les travailleuses et travailleurs qui les soutiennent.

Aujourd’hui et tous les jours, le SCFP soutient la lutte contre la transphobie, l’homophobie et l’oppression pour rendre nos communautés et nos milieux de travail plus sécuritaires et plus inclusifs.

To mark International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biphobia, CUPE renews its commitment to fighting for the safety of 2SLGBTQI+ persons at work and in our communities.

Hate directed towards Two-Spirit, le***an, gay, bisexual, trans, q***r and intersex people is on the rise in Canada. Some right-wing provincial governments have introduced regressive, transphobic policies and legislation that put 2SLGBTQI+ youth and the workers who support them at risk.

Today and every day, CUPE supports the fight against transphobia, homophobia, and oppression to make our communities and workplaces safer and more inclusive.
