As the vibrant colors of summer bloom across Canada, so does the spirit of Pride. At 3M Canada, we are not just observers but active participants in the celebration of diversity and inclusivity. Pride Month holds special significance for us as we reaffirm our commitment to creating an environment where everyone can thrive as their authentic selves, both within our workplace and the communities we serve.
Flying high: Pride flags across 3M Canada locations
Step into any of our locations from London to Chicoutimi, and you'll be greeted with the vibrant hues of the Pride flag fluttering proudly in the wind. These flags aren't just symbols; they are reminders of our unwavering support for the LGBTQIA2S+ community and our dedication to fostering an inclusive environment for all.
Proud partnerships
3M Canada proudly stands as a Gold Sponsor for the Pride London Festival, an event that embodies the spirit of unity and acceptance. Our involvement goes beyond financial support; it extends to active participation. Join us as we volunteer at the 3M booth, spreading joy and spreading the message of inclusion throughout the festival weekend.
Embracing Local Pride: Engaging in community events
From London, Perth, Brockville to Airdrie, Alberta, Pride events are happening in every community where we live and work. Whether you identify as a member of the LGBTQIA2S+ community or as a supportive ally, there's a place for you to join in the festivities. Experience the exhilaration of cheering on a Pride parade and immerse yourself in the celebration of love and diversity.
A pledge to inclusion: bringing Pride to life
At 3M Canada, we believe that everyone deserves the freedom to be their true selves, whether at home, in the community, or at work. We extend our deepest gratitude to all our employees for their role in creating an inclusive workplace where diversity is celebrated and embraced. Let's raise our flags high and continue to show our unwavering support not only during Pride Month but every day of the year.
Our Pride includes our commitment to diversity and inclusion in STEM. Through the 3M STEMtalk program, we partner with STEM advocates and allies such as Vanessa Raponi, who is the founder of EngiQueers – a national external advocacy and education based group who hosts inclusion training sessions and professional development events within 30+ engineering universities in Canada.
Join us as we paint Canada with the colors of inclusivity, acceptance, and love.
Happy Pride Month!
