The Staff and Board of BANA would like to congratulate Sue McKinnon on receiving the Charles E. Brooks Labour Community Service Award from the United Way Windsor Essex and the Windsor and District Labour Council.
Presented in memory of Charles E. Brooks, this award is given annually to a trade unionist in recognition of outstanding contributions in the area of voluntary community service.
BANA was proud to have Sue as a member of our Board of Directors from 2007-2013. Never one to seek recognition, as a devoted worker at Caesars Windsor and a proud member of Local 444 Unifor, Sue has spent decades standing up for others: her coworkers, her community, and those whose voices are too often unheard. Her advocacy has helped improve lives, uplift vulnerable communities, and build bridges between the labour movement and the broader Windsor-Essex region.
Sue has always looked at service to others as a privilege, and it was our honour to be there as all of her extraordinary efforts towards creating a better community were acknowledged.
Thank you Sue McKinnon for all that you do.
