PSAC Ontario 4th Triennial Convention Opens!

With a bang of the gavel Brother Gerry Halabecki, Regional Executive Vice-President for Ontario, opened the 4th Triennial PSAC Ontario Convention. Brother Halabecki urged the delegates to participate in this great Union and fight on behalf of the PSAC members in Ontario.

"For the past 1000 days we have stood strong in the face of employer and government attacks on our acquired rights," Brother Halabecki reminded delegates, "I can say proudly that we have not signed one collective agreement that extracted concessions from our members."

Guest speaker John Cartwright, President of the Toronto Labour Council told delegates that, "If you want to have power, you start with your Union". Brother Cartwright commended the PSAC for the Union's "Think Public" campaign in support of defending Public Services.

Delegates continue to debate resolutions submitted to the Convention and tomorrow will begin electing the Ontario Regional Council.
