Here is my report on the Convention, the election, and Chris Smalls. For Reference, Cori Longo ran without a rival, and Gil McGown beat Gregg Mady 60/40 split. I also speak about Chris Smalls and I included an echo track of his talk. Chris spoke to us about Amazon and the Labour Union he helped co-found. Whatever you think of him, it was important, and I think worth publicizing. I tried to increase the audio. A...

We are talking about vacation. 7.03 - 7.08.

Employees don't really take a look at this clause. I wanted to take a moment and dive into it.

If there are any errors please correct me. I am always going to defer to the union leadership for their interpretation.

Enjoy.

This is an audio version of the youtube video on the same topic. The Attendance Suport Program is advertised as a great program that recently was able to reduce the amount of hours to get on the program from 50 a quarter to 36 hours. Why does this matter? It matters because innocent absenteeism is a fancy way of saying we can't get the stuff we want from the culpable system. This system will help us with other programs and hopefull...

Short of quorum. Was everyone buying valentines gifts? Some good things in this episode even though we didn't have a meeting. I talk about Local 829 and CUPE Alberta.

We have an election. You have your ballots in the mail, and I encourage you to vote and mail it in. I and others running are counting on you! Feb 27 is the deadline for being at the box office. If you miss it, you can come to the hall to vote.

Also what is going on with Local 829? Medicine Hat News says they are under administration just prior to voting on a deal... very interesting since getting a deal to vote on is not a reason t...

Fred Hahn is the President of CUPE ON. He is in the media for many reasons. Currently it is about something he posted and what that makes him according to people who don't know him, or what CUPE is fighting for. As complicated as this is. There is a reason why we won't see him step down. It has everything to do with what the Convention Resolution allows him to do and how a person who makes mistakes can apologize, learn from the mis...

Deal struck. 3, 3.25, 3.25. Everything else was the same except for stronger language on the seasonal recall. Thanks to everyone that came out to vote.

Mark as Played

Information is working its way down the chain. What I can share is in the episode. This is a yes for me. I hope you can find it in your selves to vote yes as well. Compounded this deal is 9.8% over three years. I am told what was offered and accepted in principal is 3, 3.25, 3.25. Some language changes around seasonal recall but all the other negotiated items were included as well. 

 

Looking forward to signing this deal, and thank...
