Connexions Calendar

Labour walks : A catalytic walking conversation in Union Station


August 11, 2011


Kellie Scanlan and Denise Hampden will be hosting the second of three walking conversations on labour history in Toronto. Kellie has extensive labour, union and popular education experience.
This event is free!
The walk will retrace the steps of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, and the important history of struggle that helped shape the industrial and commercial city that Toronto is today. After this walk through history, we will have a chance to reflect at the Royal York hotel, a mainstay of both Toronto and railway history.

Time: 6:30 pm - 8:30pm
Location: Meet under the large clock in the Great Hall of Union Station. Toronto, ON
