Richmond Hill municipal workers are on strike for fair wages.
These workers maintain parks and roads, ensure drinking water is clean and safe, and operate arenas, community centres, and the Richmond Hill Centre for the Performing Arts.
Mayor and Council can find money for everything except the City workers who keep Richmond Hill running. The status quo is no longer working for municipalities.
Tell Richmond Hill City Council to pay their workers and restore City services. Send your message now!

Picket Lines Mean Don’t Cross!
Performing struck work is scabbing, even if there isn’t a physical picket line present.
Attending events and programs at these worksites prolongs the strike and undermines our fight for fair wages.
Support the strike by not crossing our picket lines, and encourage your friends, family, and coworkers to do the same! We all win when we stand together.
