CUPE Local 1883

We’re proud to support the Waterloo Busker Carnival this August!

Strong communities are built through strong public services, vibrant local events, and partnerships that bring people together. We’re excited to be part of this year’s festival and celebrate with our community.

Stop by the CUPE 1883 booth on August 29th to say hello, learn more about the important work our members do, and join in the fun! 🎪💜

A massive thank you to our incredible sponsors - your generosity and support bring our carnival to life and we couldn’t do it without you!

We’re at Tri-Pride 2026 today at Willow River Park (formerly Victoria Park in downtown Kitchener)!

Stop by the CUPE 1883 booth to pick up our custom Pride stickers and bandanas. Supplies are limited and going fast, so make sure you come early.

We’re here all day (12 PM to 8 PM) connecting with the community and talking about the importance of strong public services across our region.

All are welcome. See you at the park!

National AccessAbility Week takes place from May 31 to June 6, 2026.

This week is an opportunity to celebrate the achievements and contributions of persons with disabilities while recognizing the ongoing work needed to build a more accessible and inclusive Canada for everyone.

This year’s theme, “Building a Strong, Accessible Canada,” reminds us that our communities, workplaces, and public services are stronger when everyone has equal opportunity to participate and thrive.

As union members and public service workers, we believe accessibility is a collective responsibility. Creating barrier-free workplaces and services benefits everyone and helps ensure no one is left behind.

During National AccessAbility Week, we encourage everyone to learn more, speak up for accessibility, and support inclusive communities and public services.
