A Message to Members Ahead of the 2025 AGM

To our delegates, our stewards, our Board, our staff, and every member across the country who gives their time, energy, and conviction to this union: thank you. You are the people who keep PIPSC strong. You are the reason we move forward, even in challenging times. And you are the reason Canadians continue to trust the essential work of the federal public service.

Your expertise, your professionalism, and your commitment to the public good have guided everything we achieved together this year.

When I began my term in January, we faced real and immediate pressures. Our internal systems were strained. Our financial situation required careful attention. Governance gaps needed to be addressed. There was noise – a lot of it – and it threatened to distract us from our purpose.

We approached these challenges with clarity, honesty, and collaboration. The work was not always easy. At times it required difficult conversations and sustained focus. But we met the moment.

Because of this collective effort, PIPSC enters the coming year stronger and more focused than we have been in some time. We are steady. We are aligned. And we are ready.

As we look ahead, we carry forward the  progress we have made and the strength we have rebuilt. Our work is far from finished, but we are better positioned than ever to meet the challenges and opportunities before us.

Thank you for your commitment, your confidence, and your service. It is an honour to lead this organization, and a privilege to build our future together.
