6500 Blog

Hundreds attended the USW Local 6500 Day of Mourning event to remember and honour those who lost their lives, were injured or became ill due to occupational disease while at work. We also remember

USW International President Tom Conway, National Director Marty Warren and District 6 Director Myles Sullivan presented Local 6500 with a plaque congratulating them on their 60th Anniversary of a Chartered Local Union.

Congratulations to Hannah Morais, Indigo Hammond, Nicholas Desrosiers and Troy Tessier, who were awarded this year's USW Local 6500 Post-Secondary Scholarships.  We had a great response this year, and the selection process was challenging.  Best of luck to our winners as they enter this new phase of their life!   Click "Read More" to view photos
