Here is a list of Labour Day events in communities near you. Some of them will have a Care Can’t Wait campaign presence. Make sure to wear your Care Can’t Wait t-shirt or button if you have one.
We need to keep everyone safe. Events in some communities may be canceled due to wildfires. Please check in with the organizers closer to Labour Day to confirm the event in your community has not been affected by evacuation orders.
