  1. President’s Report

The impending election means that we have an opportunity to select a government that protects our rights and reduces contracted services. The issue in Canada is apathy. The majority of Canadians do not vote. In this upcoming Federal election please vote and choose a party that has your best interest in mind. Remember, it may well be that you are voting for your own job cut if you do not choose wisely.

The Institute is celebrating its 100 th Anniversary and the CS Group is celebrating its 50th anniversary. To this end I have proposed that we use some of our funding to purchase 100th Anniversary coffee mugs and provide a golf shirt, hat or pashmina (scarf) with our logos celebrating the above anniversaries.

It is my hope that members will recognize and appreciate the gesture and realize the privilege that we all hold in this country to organize and collectively bargain free from persecution.

Here’s to another successful year at bargaining and hope for a future government that will uphold our beliefs and wishes for a better country.
