The union, which represents more than 180,000 workers, including those who work for government agencies, holds annual national conferences like this one Equality at Work for members of visible minorities, women, Aboriginal, GLBTQ or those with disabilities. She encouraged delegates to boldly bring forward concerns, telling them you own the floor and you own the stage. Attendees joined her in cries of Shame! as she described her disappointment with the election of U.S. President Donald Trump, calling him a racist misogynist.
