On March 10, 1970 a charter was granted by the Grand Lodge of the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers to form

- Mississauga Lodge - Local 2413.

The original 55 members developed the fledgling Local Lodge into a force which now represents aviation workers, transportation workers and workers in the manufacturing sector, building a cohesive force which has gained a reputation as a fighting force for decent working conditions and equitable pay for its members.

In 2010 we will embarked upon our 40th year with a renewed pledge to work toward improving working conditions, pay and job security of our members.
