Labour Day is a time for us to honour and celebrate the hard work, dedication, and resilience of Delta’s city workers and emergency responders.
The City of Delta’s workforce is the heartbeat of our community, playing an essential role in shaping the vibrant and diverse character of our city.
Each day, these committed individuals—many of whom are Delta residents themselves—contribute to the growth, safety, and well-being of our city, ensuring that Delta remains a thriving place to live, work, and raise a family.
This Labour Day, we extend our deepest gratitude to our emergency responders—Delta Fire and Emergency Services, Delta Police Department, and emergency support staff—who stand as the backbone of our community’s safety and security. Their unwavering dedication and courage in the face of challenges, whether responding to natural disasters, emergencies, or protecting our neighbourhoods, exemplify the spirit of service that defines Delta.
Delta’s success and prosperity are built on the foundation of our dedicated workforce with the support and advocacy of their local unions, CUPE Local 454, Delta Public Employees, the Delta Firefighters Association, Local 1763, and the Delta Police Association.
As we gather with friends and family this Labour Day, let us reflect on the invaluable contributions of our workers and emergency responders and express our heartfelt thanks for their service.
On behalf of the City of Delta, we wish everyone a safe, restful, and well-deserved Labour Day. Together, let’s continue to build a strong, resilient, and inclusive community.
-Mayor George Harvie and Delta council
