Union Activist: Bromley Armstrong and Labour Council

union activist: I found that out when the civil rights leader and union activist was honoured by the Toronto & York Region Labour Council in May and Armstrong took me along as one of his guests, according to NOW Magazine. A rainbow of people in their 20s to their 80s clamoured for his attention. Rolling with Bromley Armstrong was like rolling with Elvis. The Labour Council established an award in his name in 2004. Armstrong died August 17, which also happens to be the birthday of Jamaica's national hero, Marcus Mosiah Garvey. It's given to a person who demonstrates outstanding leadership on labour and human rights. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
