Six men were killed in the massacre, and many more were permanently injured.<br>\u201cThis announcement sends a powerful message to Muslims in Canada, and to the broader public: Islamophobia has no place in our country,\u201d said Hassan Yussuff, President of the Canadian Labour Congress (CLC). \u201cAn annual commemoration ensures we never forget those we lost that day and that we remain vigilant to the dangers that Islamophobia poses to workers and to their families.\u201d<br>Inclusive communities require proactive efforts and Canada\u2019s unions are committed to ensuring that every worker in Canada has an opportunity to fully participate in society, regardless of race, gender, class, sexual orientation, or any other characteristic that makes them who they are.<br>\u201cWith this designation, we will need further concrete action,\u201d added Larry Rousseau, Executive Vice-President of the CLC. \u201cThe federal government must continue to step up in providing resources and support to advance education and awareness efforts around Islamophobia and all forms of racism and discrimination. None of us are safe until all of us are safe.\u201d<br>The labour movement is committed to advancing anti-racism efforts and works with all levels of government in promoting safe and welcoming communities for all.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Canada\u2019s unions are welcoming the federal government\u2019s announcement that it will designate January 29 a National Day of Remembrance of the Quebec City Mosque Attack and Action Against Islamophobia.The country\u2019s labour movement supported community calls to commemorate this painful anniversary since the attack on the Quebec Islamic Cultural Centre devastated the community in 2017.
