😁We are so excited!😁
The countdown has begun and we’re just weeks away from the reopening of the @IAMW3Center for in-person training of the next generation of labor trailblazers. August 1st is the day…don’t miss it!
I remain honoured and privileged to work alongside each of my coworkers (members of @IAMAW3111) from coast to coast.
Many memories, of each of them, on our picket lines which began one year ago today and continued until our return to work on November 1st.
#canlab#CLCstrike#1u
The deep and meaningful friendships forged (and strengthened) in the midst of a strike is something that all workers who have walked picket lines can relate to.
I remain deeply thankful to all @IAMAW3111 members, @IAMAW78 folks, and @IAMAWCanada & @MachinistsUnion.

The strike of @IAMAW3111 members (staff of @CanadianLabour) saw a tremendous outpouring of support and solidarity.
I remain deeply grateful (as I’m certain my coworkers do as well) for the vast outpouring of support from coast-to-coast.
I will never forget.

I’m reminded today marks the one-year anniversary of the my coworkers & I (members of @IAMAW3111, affiliated with @IAMAW78, @IAMAWCanada / @MachinistsUnion) began our strike on Oct. 15th 2019, which lasted nearly three weeks until we returned to work Nov. 1st.

The strike lasted until November 1 after members ratified a new Collective Agreement. While the strike did not result in a decisive victory for the workers, they did make some small monetary gains. #CLCstrike#canlab
The primary issues were the employer’s desire to impose a concession on language of an Anti-Harassment Policy within the existing agreement, terms of the employee’s pension plan, and modest wage improvements to keep pace with inflation. #CLCstrike#canlab

Today marks the 1 year anniversary of the start of the #CLCstrike. After nearly 2 years of negotiations, staff at CLC began a strike shortly after midnight after giving a 92.5% mandate to take strike action. Pickets began in the early morning at CLC offices across Canada. #canlab

Holidays are made much better when you’ve got a union card.
While celebrating holidays with your loved ones in the days ahead, give them the gift of some very good advice:
“Join a union! You and your coworkers can turn your jobs into good #union jobs!”
