The group contacted organizer, Kyle Franzen, out o The group contacted organizer, Kyle Franzen, out of District 14, this was due to one of the employee’s previous histories working for Air Canada. Kevin Timms, of District 140 relayed the contact information to Kyle, and the process began. A first agreement was bargained and ratified in early November, which established consistent pay raises and rights in the workplace. The new members will be part of Local Lodge 1722. Kyle Franzen, “The IAM sets the example by bringing past experiences into a new workplace. Together, the issues that drove the group to organize was to tackle issues of wage inequality, work-life balance, and to seek structural stability. ‘United, we aimed for a more balanced and equitable future, grounded in our shared experiences.’ Drawing on our collective wisdom, we pave the way for positive change and contribute to a better work environment.” This Daikin group is based out of Calgary, Alberta and performs HVAC supply and receiving duties to contractors in the area. Daikin is a global leader in the HVAC&R industry, with locations around the world. #iamaw #organize #solidarity #unite #joinaunion #ab

https://workingfamiliesedmonton.ca/action/stopcorp https://workingfamiliesedmonton.ca/action/stopcorporatehandouts/ They’re at it again, Council is considering giving your money over to profitable corporate landlords. On September 20th, City Council will be considering whether or not to offer a subsidy to convert downtown office space into residential units. This money gets us no share in the building or say in how the units are developed; we’re just expected to give money to corporations who already have it. This corporate welfare has got to stop and the money that is being spent by our city needs to be done in the benefit of working Edmontonians. The current vacancy rate, which is roughly half of what Calgary’s was when they did something similar, is benefiting many non-profits and small businesses who are looking for affordable office space to rent. If these companies are allowed to rake in profits while rates are high they should also suffer the consequences when rates are low. Lower corporate profits are not the responsibility of working families. While we agree that addressing safety issues downtown is an important goal and increasing the amount of people using the area is crucial in solving this, providing corporate welfare to profitable corporations is not the proper mechanism to use. The city owns office space that could be consolidated into Edmonton tower. If we are to be spending public money on bringing more people downtown it should be into the feasibility of transforming the city owned buildings where we can control the type of units created and ensure that they benefit working families. #workingfamiliesedmonton
https://www.friendsofmedicare.org/abpharmacare Th https://www.friendsofmedicare.org/abpharmacare The Confidence and Supply Agreement between the Liberal and New Democratic parties gives hope that universal Pharmacare may finally be on the horizon. But it needs to be done correctly, and action needs to start NOW. Canadians can't wait. Now, more than ever, we must pressure the federal government to support a universal, single-payer public drug plan for all Canadians. Opinion polling has shown that nine in ten Albertans support national Pharmacare — we need to make sure that our government and local representatives hear this loud and clear. Send an email to the Prime Minister, Health Minister and your local MP to let them know why it is important to you that they support national, universal Pharmacare.
Truth and Reconciliation Day is a day to remember Truth and Reconciliation Day is a day to remember the hard truth of Canadas past, face it, and take action to do what we can to correct it going forward. District 14 and Local Lodge 1722 now have a Land Acknowledgement to be read and considered at all their future meetings. With this constant reminder we hope that as union members and community members that we can find ways to move towards gaining knowledge and understanding of Canadas past, by listening to courageous survivors, educators, and elders, by keeping engaged in Canada’s contemporary treatment of its indigenous peoples. We must remember, but we also must act! Join District 14’s Human Rights Committee to contribute to our future actions! #everychildmatters #truthandreconciliation #actionisneeded

Not even a hurricane can stop determined Machinist Not even a hurricane can stop determined Machinists attending the IAM Unity and Growth conference in San Diego! The 2023 IAM Unity and Growth Conference we received training, education and inspired IAM officers, members, staff, activists and other leaders to organize new members in all sectors and continue to embrace and strengthen the diversity of our union. David Chartrand, IAM Canadian General Vice-President said this of the conference, “We need to get together often and share our stories – both victories and where we fell short. Exchanging strategies can only help us further along the path we need to go in order to make significant changes in the world around us. I look forward to the findings and reports leading out of the workshops.” While we learned that after nearly eight years leading our union, two decades on the Executive Council and more than 43 years of membership, IAM International President Robert Martinez Jr. will retire on Jan. 1, 2024. It was extremely encouraging to hear that General Vice President Brian Bryant will succeed International President Martinez as our next International President. We remain united more than ever and look forward to the IAM’s future growth. -IAMAW Business Representative and Organizer, Kyle Franzen

The members of UNITE HERE! Local 40 in Richmond, B The members of UNITE HERE! Local 40 in Richmond, BC, began strike action at the Sheraton Vancouver Hotel. The key issues are the guaranteeing of the daily room cleaning work; protecting tips for servers, bartenders, baristas, and bell staff; and securing a real wage increase. The boycott is for 3 hotels: – Sheraton Vancouver Airport – Hilton Vancouver Airport – Marriott Vancouver Airport The hotels are in the same building complex and owned by the same ownership group. UNITE HERE! believes the employer will try to move customers, including unionized flight crews, from the Sheraton to the other two hotels next door, which are non-unionized. UNITE HERE! has expressed that they have spoken to the unions that may be impacted by this request. The BC Federation has also expressed support for the boycott. Should you have any questions with respect to this, please contact my Political Assistant, Tim Deelstra, at tdeelstra@clcctc.ca, who will be able to assist you.
