Every year, on December 3, the International Day of Persons with Disabilities, the Canadian Labour Congress recognizes a union member for their disability rights activism.
This award is named in honour of Carol McGregor, an outstanding disability rights activist, member of NUPGE and the CLC Disability Rights Working Group, and who was much loved by all those who worked with her. Carol passed away in 2006, and this award lives on in her name to recognize the incredible disability justice activism in our communities.
