Thanks to Jennifer Ho, BC Regional Council for these photos and report from Fort Langley
On May 25 UNE Local 20278 at the Fort Langley Historic Site celebrated Asian Heritage Month with a potluck luncheon, fun, pride and participation from members. I had the opportunity to meet members at the fort and visited this very beautiful worksite. The event was organized jointly by the Local President, Sister Shirley Torres and the PSAC Alternate Geographical Co-ordinator for West Fraser Valley, Sister Celine Ahodekon.
Coincidentally, there were groups of International Exchange students from China, Korea and Japan who were happy and excited to learn about Asian Heritage Month being acknowledged and celebrated in Canada. They will bring this back to their homelands to share with their friends and families.
Please join me to say: Good job, Local 20278 for and acknowledging this occasion!Solidarity, Jennifer Chieh Ho, Geographical Co-ordinator, PSAC West Fraser Valley Area Council
