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 mistake and move forward. It also has to do with how the NEB is formed and why removal of any NEB member is nearly an impossible ask. Just like asking for your Preimere...

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.

Strike mandate on the horizon. My thoughts. Some may think we are in a zero sum game, or a win-win. At this stage we are hovering near a lose-lose.  We are in a cooling off portion. Call the hall if you have questions.

L37 is being offered 3%x3 over 3 years. L38 is being offered 3%, 3%, 2%. They are asking for 4%, 3.5%, 3%. Compounded from both the difference is about 1.59%. They are dealing with other issues that L37 are not concerned with, but L37 have got in writing some things they have been looking for going back many contracts. My support for L38 and my desire to move forward with our proposed contract are important in my dedication. 1.59% may not be much but sometimes it is not entirely the monetary that keeps contracts from being signed.
