The PIPSC Board of Directors recently voted to redefine the boundaries of the Quebec and Ontario regions; a portion of Nunavut located East of the 80th meridian West to the Ontario region will be merged together to better reflect the geographic and linguistic diversity of our membership.
Members whose work location is in Nunavut will now become part of and be invited to participate in Ontario region activities. PIPSC staff are working hard to implement this change as smoothly and efficiently as possible.
What does this mean for members in Ontario?
Ontario members will now be considered members of the Ontario and Nunavut Region. Ontario members will not be otherwise affected by this change in regional boundaries.
What does this mean for members in Nunavut?
Nunavut members will now be considered members of the Ontario and Nunavut Region. If your work location is in Nunavut and you were previously a member of the Quebec region:
- you will now be invited to participate in Ontario and Nunavut Region member events
- new labour relations matters can be directed to a steward or Employment Relations Officer (ERO) within the Toronto Regional Office
- any existing labour relations files will continue to be represented by your ERO from the Montreal Regional Office.
