The AECEO team is excited to introduce our new resource! In Unions 101, you will find essential information about labour unions, workers' rights to unionize and why unions matter to the early learning and child care sector. Click here to access this resource!

The AECEO team has prepared a chart summarizing all major party's commitments regarding early learning and child care, according to their official platforms. Also available in French, courtesy of our partners at the OCBCC.
