Time to nominate the 2025 NSFL Sister of the Year and New Sister of the Year

February 8, 2024

In 2025, The NSFL Women’s Committee will honour two sisters. One will be the Sister of the Year Award, which celebrates a union sister who has proven their dedication to the trade union movement and the advancement of women’s voices. The Sister of the Year is a woman who works tirelessly and deserves to be recognized for her hard work and dedication. This award is aimed at grass roots labour and women’s rights defenders. The New Sister of the Year Award

These awards acknowledge that women contribute in a variety of ways. When women raise their voices they also raise the voices of the women around them, offering strength and encouragement. The NSFL Women’s Committee will award the women who best exemplify this spirit. The award will be presented at the NSFL International Women’s Day breakfast at NSGEU on Friday, March 7. Details coming soon on tickets. Deadline for nominations for the awards is January 31, 2025. Please email Joan Wark: joan@nslabour.ca
