In addition to negotiating better pay, benefits and working conditions, CUPE speaks out on a wide variety of issues, including labour laws, public services, equality and human rights, global justice, health and safety and the environment.

If you have updated contact information to share with your coordinator, or just want to drop a line to say 'hello,' send them an email! [Nov 25, 2008 04:26 PM]
