Meeting Minutes, Pre-Bargaining Survey

Please note that the offical copy of the January general meeting minutes and the agenda for the recently passed March general meeting have been added to the site under the minutes tab now found on the top navigation page.

Remember to complete and return your pre-bargaining survey by March 30. Our contract runs out in June.

Defined Benefit vs Defined Contribution (our current) Pension Plan

There was a good turnout of 30 plus members for the pension presentation that took place on Saturday, January 25 at St. Paul’s Collegiate. There will be more information distributed in the coming months. Members had the opportunity to learn the difference between a defined benefit pension plan and a defined contribution plan (our current plan). For any members wishing more information regarding pension plans, please contact your local executive. We would like to offer this presentation again in the near future if there is enough interest in the membership. If this is something you would like more information on, please contact Tim Dupont at cupe4701@gmail.com or contact a member of the local executive. More info below:
