Change Starts With Us: 2023 MFL Political Action Conference

Registration is now closed.

Please join us for Change Starts With Us: MFL’s Political Action Conference from June 15-16, 2023 at the RBC Convention Centre (375 York Avenue, Winnipeg). Download the Program.

Working families in Manitoba have suffered the serious consequences of the Pallister/Stefanson government’s deep cuts to public services, chronic under-staffing and attacks on collective bargaining and other worker rights, and we’ve had enough! We know from experience that when labour gets involved in the political arena, we can make a difference. And the stakes have never been higher.

As we head toward a critically important provincial election this October, it has never been more important for labour to flex its political muscle and engage our members in campaigns to make Manitoba a better place for all of us.

Participants in the Mid Term Conference will:

• Get the inside scoop on current Manitoba public opinion research and the political priorities of working families
• Hear from political and labour leaders about their vision for a more progressive Manitoba
• Learn about how BC’s labour movement has been able to win big labour gains in partnership with a labour-friendly government
• Learn about how you can get involved to help make change happen, from talking to members, lobbying politicians, making presentation at the Legislature, and working on campaigns.
